Sorry to shout!
But based on a thread we had about a month ago re: garage sale sleepers, someone mentioned getting a Vita-Mix for a song and selling for a nice profit.
Was at garage sale yesterday and spied one. Wasn't sure I was remembering correctly, so I asked her how much. She told me $20. Since I wasn't sure, I didn't want to gamble the $20.
So we left.
Went to another sale and it kept bugging me. Told my wife if it had been $10, I might have taken the risk. She said why not go back and see if the lady will take $15.
We did and she did and now I have one!!!
Going to get it cleaned up and sold. Some have been going $200+ of late.

That's great. By the time you give us all a commission cut you should still make five bucks or so!

Windex works good to shine it up...and Colgate works well to polish those front teeth (you'll be smiling a lot)
Check out the ending auctions to see where those sellers listed theirs.Start it at a buck,and watch it climb like those 275 mph blades are propelling it!
