Hard to Resist: Everything
On Monday, I hit up the secret auction with Adam and we met my parents there. As I’ve said in the past, this auction often has a mix of garbage and gems. But that night, basically everything up for auction was hilarious.
Saw these homies right away. They were each about 2 feet tall.
I have a deep love for Beavis and Butthead so this was really hard to resist.
Nothing better than a Tweety Bird needlepoint.
That, my friends, is a HUGE plastic Halloween mask–the eye holes are up in the hat area.
In the end, I came away with a cool set of playing cards with naked ladies on them, and a pile of paper, including this awesome antique invite to a “social hop”!
There were two things that Adam wanted, both of which sold for way too much money. First, there was an Eddie Cantor game amongst these huge piles of old games. Someone ended up buying each stack for between $70 and $40, and the pile with Eddie Cantor went for the most.
But the main thing Adam wanted was this box of NES games in their original packaging. He was most excited about this lot because it contained a Flinstones game, and one of the two NES Flinstones games is worth a boatload.
This box contained the less valuable game, but still probably would have had a high resell value. However, it ended up going for $90. C'mon y'all.
