Some of us get lucky and find some quirky old pieces of history in the attic or after we move houses. That sounds like a good opportunity to make some quick cash, but there’re some things you should know before selling your item to the antique dealer.

Do some research beforehand—go on the internet to find some information, and evaluate the item’s condition. Keep in mind that in most cases, you’re likely gonna get 20 to 50 percent off the real retail price.

Sometimes, antique dealers will ask you to state a price you’d like to get. So get ready for a little bit of negotiation. Make sure the dealer is genuinely interested in what you have, and you are truly ready to part with it. If it’s a precious heirloom from your family, you'd better think twice before selling it.

You've probably noticed that people use a variety of different terms like vintage, retro, or antique to refer to whatever "old" stuff they have. But these are not synonymous and, in fact, refer to very different things. A true antique, for example, is an object that’s 100 years of age or even older. Every antique item belongs to a different period⁠⁠—for example, Art Nouveau or Art Deco⁠⁠—and these may have a couple of decades separating them.

The term "vintage" usually covers older items in general. If you go “vintage shopping,” you're shopping for items that have distinctive vintage styles and usually date to anything from the '40s to '70s. Meanwhile, the term "collectible" is used for newer items that date to the '80s, '90s, and even '00s. The word “retro” refers to vintage-inspired styles and vibes and may be used for art, fashion, graphic and interior designs, and objects.

Interesting Find At A Thrift/Antique Store: Swastika Post Card

Good Luck Emblem
"The Swastika" is the oldest cross and emblem in the world. It forms a combination of four "L's" standing for Luck, Light, Love and Life. It has been found in 315 B.C., and our own Southwest Indians use it as an amulet.
It is claimed that the Mound Builders and Cliff Dwellers of Mexico, Central America, consider "The Swastika" a charm to drive away evil and bring good luck, long life and prosperity to the possessor.
I tried messing with the coloring in hopes to be able to read the postcard. The original was written in pencil (apparently most post cards were that time). It was addressed to a Mr. Ben Hayley in Massie, Texas. From someone from Pirkle, Texas. From the letter, I could barely make out the sender writing "Wish you were here for my party. I'm so sorry you didn't come by".

Erin 4 years ago

I am 46 years old and I remember having a four digit phone number. We used only four digits until I was about 8 years old and then we went to 5 digits. We didn't go to 11 digits (1+ the number) for calls until I was a teenager and that was only for long distance.
