What a weekend! I tried to have another estate sale since the weather here had been so uncooperative this year. If it weren't for a friend that stopped and bought several pieces of Depression glass, I would have only made $14 for a three-day sale. I had more items "palmed" that I sold. What irked me the most about getting stolen was a Europran iridescent dish (see photo). Whatever else I had, it wasn't want people were looking for. Some asked for furniture and I showed them what I have and for one undisclosed reason or another, it just wasn't what they wanted. I have a Victorian love seat, a maple dresser and end table, caned-seat chairs and numerous small table/stands. It almost seemed hat they were expecting modern furniture in like-new condition for almost nothing. What do people want these days? It sure isn't Victorian style.

I subscribe to GSalr.com. Very helpful for garage sales, specially if I'm out of my area.

Lillian , This is the time of down sizing and minimalist furnishing. Our children grew up around hoarders and Grandparents giving parents items for the home. Children today want new off the sales floor or off the internet items. Major retailers are closing doors because they can no longer sell item Children can buy on the internet with little or no over head.

It is disheartening to see so few people going to garage sales anymore, an those that do expect "give-away" prices. Yesterday I was driving through a nearby town. It must be their community-wide cleanup because most houses had a pile of stuff out in front waiting for pick-up. I saw some nice antique-looking furniture. Now if people think that's trash, no wonder I can't sell anything. Some of the things people put out a garbage were better looking than what I'm trying to sell!

Lillian Dunbar I have been to Albany New York . I went on a purchasing spree in that area looking for items I  never see around here . The Lake George area seems to also be very slow yet I have purchased many items for few dollars in that area .
