I heard the sound of a bell, new merchandise is being moved to the middle of the store. I was in the jean section looking for Evisu, True Religion jeans etc when that sweet bell started going ring a ding -ding..I passed 2 old women and a small child frantically racing to the cart of possible goodies not yet molested by the public. I got there (out of breath) first, I found this green jolly guy staring at me

I'm with Mr. Rockets on that one. I go to Goodwill and I don't see where anything has a huge resale value. I do know that if you hit the Goodwill near an affluent neighborhood, the stuff will be better than the Goodwill by the ghetto.

You should make a thread on what to look for at Goodwills. Maybe teach a class.

The key is going often..  Guys are terrible at moving stuff and looking for items, I'm not. I found a plastic container with a box in front of it on the bottom shelf filled with 80's Star Wars toys. 

I love these threads because I find this stuff interesting. I also like shows like American Pickers. It's cool that you have an eye for stuff like this. If I bought that T REX I would have thrown it out back as a dog toy.

I learned that toys from popular movies are always a grab the hard part now is parting with Rex he cracks me up... I have a desk filled with high end toys. Star Wars toys from the 80's, original transformers from the 80's. GI JOE'S all found at Goodwill.

The Goodwill I go to is near a decent middle to upper neighborhood but that store has high sales so items are shipped to them from all over the low country from those donation centers. I know the pricing manager at my Goodwill but he wont hook me or notify me when cool stuff comes in he is by the book.

Are people actually paying that much for it or is that just what people are asking?

That is a rare toy so its hard to price

Nice jerseys are a dime a dozen in the ghetto though. I've gotten quality stitched versions of classic jerseys.

    • overall agree on the draft grade as a whole on on each pick, but every time I read (and I have read it more than once) that we "gave up two firsts" for Bryce, I am confused. We gave up the 2024 first, but we swapped 2023 firsts, so we didn't give up anything there. We did give up our former first rounder in DJ, but I don't think thats what you mean as one of the "firsts" we gave up.
    • Didn't  see this posted (since 2023) but since folks have been posting that you can't judge a draft class for three years (a ridiculous take), I thought I'd post this to see what people thought about the 2023 draft. Unfortunately this may not be the most interesting class to do this with but I do quite like retrospective draft grades. Would appreciate other's takes on this (and other recent) draft classes.   1(1) - Bryce Young QB: I am a bigger Bryce Young apologist than most (maybe all). I like the kid. But there is no way around it: This was a terrible pick. If he had been picked in the 4th or even the 3rd round I would feel pretty good about it. But this was the first overall pick that we gave up two firsts, our best offensive player to get.  GRADE: C -    2(39) - Jonathan Mingo WR: not much to say here here. He was here for two years. His yards per catch are on par with Bryce's yards per pass. Rough stuff. To date he has still never scored a touchdown in the NFL GRADE: F   3(80) - DJ Johnson OLB: a pick I hated as soon as it happened and an example of why the premise of this thread is honestly dumb. This was a bad pick when it happened. Most people knew it.  Then came training camp and he did not look good. Then came the preseason which confirmed what we saw in TC. Then came the season which confirmed what we saw in preseason. To date, he has half a sack in his career. GRADE: F 4 (114) Chandlers Zavala G: Honestly the best pick of this draft which really speaks to how awful this draft is. Other than Bryce, the only pick still on the team. He is mostly average or below average depth which in round 4 is not terrible. But he had a pff score of 43.5 and though I think people have unrealistic expectations for draft picks, I still would want a little more from a fourth round pick GRADE: C+   5 (145) - Jammie Robinson S: I liked the pick when it happened but ended up being a disappointment. He logged 1 tackle with the falcons last year and not enough snaps to get a grade on PFF.  GRADE: F OVERALL DRAFT GRADE: F
