Typewriters

While there are older collectors who’d do anything to get their hands on typewriters, it’s actually the younger generation that’s really interested in these vintage goods. It definitely has something to do with growing up in a wireless world. These ‘antique mechanical keyboards’ are just fascinating! The more gears, push buttons and tubes, the better!

In order to sell them at a decent price they have to be in working condition. That’ll get you between $20 and $100. Fully restored ones cost somewhere in the low hundreds.

Auto Parts

Auto parts, which may or may not be hiding under tarps or in the rafters of your garage, could net you as little as $20 or as much as $2,000.

Car vases, hubcaps, and hood ornaments are sought after the most because they have decorative value. Other people like to repurpose headlamps and other body parts for an industrial design look.

So, about that $20 to $2,000 price difference? Those came from hood ornaments in decent conditions. Some of the rare ones, as you can see, can be particularly expensive!
