Collector's Dream Estate Sale! Beautiful Antiques, Vintage Fans, Store Displays & Hidden Treasures!

This is sale #2 of the Lee family. This is their 2nd property that is just a few miles from the unbelievable sale we had for them a couple of months ago. This is their former home with a huge 4-bay shed that holds 30+ years of their collecting. It is an incredible number of fantastic items. The house is stuffed with treasures, but the shed is a collector's dream.

THIS WILL BE A FOUR DAY SALE. THERE IS TOO MUCH TO HANDLE IN JUST THREE DAYS LIKE WE USUALLY DO .

Here is a version that turns the excitement dial up to eleven while keeping your trademark humor and sense of abundance:

MISSED THEIR FIRST SALE AT THEIR OTHER PROPERTY? DON'T MAKE THAT MISTAKE TWICE!

If you missed this family's first estate sale at their other property a few months ago, consider this your second chance at redemption. Their original home is now opening its doors, and friends, neighbors, collectors, pickers, treasure hunters, and anyone with even a mild case of "I might need this someday syndrome" are in for the shopping adventure of the summer.

This isn't just an estate sale.

This is an EVENT.

This is the kind of sale people talk about for years. The kind where customers call their friends from the driveway and yell, "GET OVER HERE NOW!"

The house is PACKED.

The garage is PACKED.

The storage building is PACKED.

The enormous four-bay shop is PACKED.

The yard is PACKED.

Frankly, if there were another building on the property, we'd probably have found a way to stuff that too.

This family spent a lifetime collecting beautiful antiques, quality collectibles, unusual treasures, country store memorabilia, vintage toys, exceptional furniture, glassware, artwork, dolls, hunting gear, and enough amazing oddities to make even the most seasoned collector weak in the knees.

If you can't find something you absolutely HAVE to own at this sale, you may be required to surrender your Official Obsessed Collector of America membership card at the exit.

My advice?

Forget bringing the little SUV.

You need a pickup truck.

A trailer.

Possibly a moving van.

And if you're really thinking ahead, stop by the dealership and trade up before the sale starts.

I would love to list every item in this sale, but honestly, I'd have to contact my publisher and ask if there's enough time to print the novel it would take to describe it all.

LOOK AT THE PHOTOS.

Arrive early.

And most importantly...

Bring your treasure-hunting game face.

You're going to need it.
