This is picture heavy so bear with me..
While picking up another Halloween Craig’s list item, I came home and jumped on the computer, just to see if there was anything else for sale as far as Halloween goes. I stumbled across this add (I’ll abbreviate):
“Must Sell HALLOWEEN PROPS… NEED TO SELL AS NEEDS MONEY FOR AN EMERGENCY!!!!!”
I immediately responded. The person must have just put the ad up because I was the first to respond. I made arrangements to go see the stuff (48.5 miles away).
To my surprise, he had a TON of stuff! JACKPOT!!! Instead of dickering around, piece by piece, I asked him how much he wanted for ALL of it. To my surprise, he said he’d take $300 for it ALL. Then he started crying (physically). I felt so guilty so I asked him what his emergency was (private, sorry, can’t share). He said that he’d like to get at least $400 for it all. I said I’d split the difference with him and offered him $350. He agreed. It was $50 more for his emergency.
Needless to say, it took me two trips at 48.5 miles each way to get all the stuff. I have a Chevy HHR and all the seats fold down. I had every knook and cranny filled to capacity each trip.
Unfortunately, I had to leave the cemetery fence behind because it would not fit in my car. Besides, I’m building my own.
Here are the photos… I don’t know what some of these things are worth. Some are quite large. Please let me know if I did good and if you can share, let me know the value of some of these items??????
Thanks
This one is very large... It originally caught on fire and he managed to save the head and hands. Judge by the hand in the photo.
These are some of the tombstones that came with the deal.
