Welcome back to the channel. My name is Tom and today I'm back at the Grafton flea market in
Grafton, Massachusetts after almost two years. Last time I was here was back in September of 2024.
So now come along with me and my mom and let's see what they got this time.
And don't forget if you like this video please give me a thumbs up, subscribe to my channel,
leave a comment, and hit that notification bell. I've got a lot more flea market videos coming up.
Thanks. Minnie Mouse. A little person. Uh or popcorn but oh trick-or-treat. Okay.
Oh okay. Yep. Yeah. Yep. It was priced at $25 but she said it was half price.
Here's some old video game controllers. This is an Xbox Duke controller but it's an aftermarket
one. It's not the one made by Microsoft so I did pass on that. I am always looking for
original Duke controllers though.
Oh yeah. Yeah. I didn't know they had Happy Meal toys for Thor. One of the Thor movies.
Sonic. 2003. One dollar each? Yeah. Okay. The old ones is on the bottom. I want to give you.
Oh okay. This you can switch it. Oh yeah. Thanks. Yeah you put it here. Yep. No room.
Right. That was a Sonic 2 handheld video game of some sort.
Oh okay.
Yep. Okay.
Here's Donkey Kong. Decided to get him.
Here's Knuckles from Sonic the Hedgehog 2 the movie.
And we've got Yoshi. Yoshi from Nintendo.
Another Sonic 2 figure.
And this is a Super Mario Brothers maze game. I thought that was pretty cool.
And we've got one of the turtles from Super Mario Brothers.
And we've got Tails from Sonic 2.
Michael Vick. He was the guy that was arrested for the dog fighting.
And here's another Sonic 2 handheld video game.
One, two, seven, eight.
Got eleven. So I just need four dollars change. Eleven here? Yeah. Eleven.
Oh thanks. Appreciate it. Thank you.
Ever since I went to the Pez Museum I've been looking for Pez stuff and I am not having any
luck finding vintage Pez. Basically the Pez without feet. Haven't seen any yet.
Here's some sort of commemorative JFK coin.
And I remember I got one that looked almost identical to that of Franklin D. Roosevelt
that I got at his home in Hyde Park.
So it must have been a whole series where they had holders like that.
This is a Bicentennial Mickey Mouse plate and I think I have this somewhere.
The problem is I have so much stuff and a lot of it's in storage and I kind of forget what I have.
That's a slight problem.
There's a few Beanie Babies.
Robot Radio. 1992. It's from KB.
Anybody else out there miss KB toys?
Oh it's a Lipton cup of soup radio.
Oh yeah. Yeah.
Oh here's some Disney books. Disney's Wonderful World of Knowledge. 1971. Okay.
I think he said the books are a dollar each.
I like this Mickey Mouse statue but I think I have one just like him except it's painted
a little bit differently. And I think this was one of those where you would paint it yourself.
Tandy AM Apple Radio. Oh here it is. For the apple of my eye. Interesting.
Getting some books? Yeah. Are they? I don't know. May not be. I don't know.
The books were two dollars.
I'm always surprised when I see these vintage Beatles records not going for a ton of money
because I always thought they were worth quite a bit. But I guess it's only certain pressings and
I really don't know how to tell the difference between which is a valuable pressing and which is
a common one. Tetris Waffle Maker. Oh that's funny.
I like that this vendor has these price signs set up so you'd know what everything costs
and you don't have to ask them which I don't like to do if I'm not super interested in something.
But that Atari 2600 Pac-Man would have been $25 which sounds like a good price but I actually
haven't priced those recently so I'm not really sure what they're going for. And then of course
he's got a ton of Hot Wheels over here. Five dollars, three dollars. These are all fairly
modern. When it comes to Hot Wheels and Matchbox cars I'm looking for stuff like from the 80s and
earlier for the most part. Which I didn't see much of that here. How are you? Good. How are you?
Nice.
We've got an Austin Powers Talking Keychain and not surprisingly the battery's dead.
Dr. Seuss Deco Trim. What is that? 2020.
Never seen this before. It says it's the Young Jedi Collectible Card Game.
Two dollars for the Young Jedi.
$5.30.
Yeah. Yep. It's neat. It's a skipper. Barbie's little sister. Yeah. It's just the case.
And a Wonder Bread Ruler.
1993.
What is this? The Good Dye Young. I don't know who that's supposed to be.
For a second I thought it was the Scarecrow from The Wizard of Oz but it's not.
Yeah. I don't know who that is. Compliments of George Stale. Philadelphia.
Queen Elizabeth. Golden Jubilee 2002.
Royal Visit to Canada May 1939. Oh my. It's King George VI and the Queen Elizabeth.
Silver Jubilee 1977. Yeah. Now I'm going to say that without question this was my
favorite find at the entire flea market. Robo the Fan. That's pretty cool.
It just looks like Robo in 1986. It definitely needs a cleaning. Seven bucks. Yep.
It was $24.99 at Zare. Do you know if it works? It works. There's also in that
you know the food thing there's a socket. Oh okay. Okay. So like if you if you were to buy it
you try it out. If you're happy with it. Yeah. If not just bring it back. Okay. And without
taking them out do you know if there's anything broken on them like any cracked pieces? You can
take it out but I think it's pretty much. Yeah. Let's see. Yeah there he is. He needs a good
cleaning but. He does. I don't totally recall. Yeah I've not seen any. Just needs to be cleaned.
Yeah. But I did I did try it and it turns. Yeah. Yeah there's not much that can break on just the
motor. Yeah I'll I'll take that. That's pretty cool. See if I can get him back in. Oh you know
that's upside down. Oh that's right. You'll see when you look. Yep.
Seven dollars.
Only got a ten. So Robo does kind of work but his gears are all gummed up. So now I'm trying
to take him apart and figure out how to properly service the motor. It's taken a little bit of
doing though because I've never disassembled a fan before and I just have to figure out what's
the right grease to use and what parts to take off and what parts not to take off. And I am filming
it so if that goes well I will have a video on restoring Robo at some point. And I thought these
were really cool. These are cassette singles which I remember getting back in the early 90s
but I don't think I've ever seen them at a flea market before. How much are the cassette singles?
I'll do actually a single two for a dollar. Okay sounds good. Two three fifty.
All right so that would be $3.50. Okay. Don't have quarters. Do you like Springsteen at all?
Yeah. Those are a little more pricey. They're like full concerts. Oh okay. Yeah I'm looking
more like the cassettes I'm into. Miss Piggy playing cards. He's a tiger. Yeah.
Here's one of those My Arcade Space Invaders games. My Arcade is not the best manufacturer
of these mini arcades and he was asking 30 bucks on this one so I did pass.
If that were five or ten dollars I might have bought it.
Here's a bunch of La Boo Boo stuff and to be honest with you I know next to nothing about
La Boo Boo. So let me know is any of this stuff worth anything and do people actually
still collect La Boo Boo or is that a fad that's passed already?
Francie and Casey? Never heard of them? No. Me neither.
No idea what he's saying.
Lone Ranger. Yeah. Lassie.
Snap Crackle Pop. Here's this one 1997.
Hi how much are these? So the advertising ones they're two dollars each or they're three for
five so that would be five. Oh okay. There's three of them. Right. So basically so if you just buy
Yeah they're all Snap Crackle Pop. There's the Energizer Bunny.
NBC? Yeah. And then there was um what else oh there was the Box Root Beer over here
guy and this one in a mug and then Kathy. Yeah. But I think that's the last of it other than the
which I kind of separated the bears from all the other animals. Oh okay. Yeah. Because there's like
a couple of reindeer ones. These are them loose if you want to look at them. Oh okay. Check out
the claw. Like I opened one so you can check. Yep. Cool. Entenmann's. I didn't know they had a
oh yeah the Entenmann's that was the other one. Oh. What's this the Moon Pie? Oh is that it? I
I'm pretty sure it's like there's a star cakes or something like I don't know. I don't know.
It looks like it doesn't it could yeah sure. All right I'll take one of these. All right do you
want a bag? Uh nope we got a bag. Brand new ice cream maker ten dollars. This is a Space Invaders
plug and play video game system and I would have probably bought this if it had the battery door
but it was missing. I don't know it's got like a hose like a straw type thing. I don't know
what that would be for. Mickey Mouse bubble barge. Oh okay I guess you'd probably fill it
with bubble bath and then you'd blow on it and it would bubble coming out of the smokestack. How
you guys doing? Good how are you? Here's another one of those hand-painted Disney statues and this
one I do not have yet. How much is this? Five bucks. Okay yeah I'll take that for five bucks.
Pennsylvania Dutch. I went through Pennsylvania Dutch country. Yeah.
Here's some old computer games from the 90s. This is Ultimate Pinball Collector's Edition
and I really wanted to get this one but this first disc had this thick black
gunk on it like you could feel it so that definitely wouldn't play so I did skip on that
but this is Pinball Thrill Ride also by Sierra and the disc on this one was fine so I did end
up buying this. Excuse me is this yours? Yeah. How much is this? A dollar. A dollar? Okay yeah I'll take that
for a dollar. Fisher Price phonograph. I think I actually bought one of these on flea market. I can't
remember now. Yeah I think I did. Is it Kermy? I don't know. It doesn't say. It doesn't say.
This is a Rainbow Bray character. Not sure which one. I was looking to see if she was vintage from
the 80s but I'm pretty sure she was not. Hi is this yours? How much is this? Five. Five? Five bucks.
We got a 10. I've never seen AT&T branded floppy disks. No. Raytheon.
Yeah so we got, we bid on auctioned Sorogyne. Yeah. And we came across Sorogyne and the guy
actually worked there for quite some time. Yeah. I have a ton of electronic equipment at the house
I wasn't able to bring because obviously when I'm full I only have this.
But yeah I came with a ton of vintage computer equipment. Oh cool. Class notes. Yeah it's all
work-related stuff I think. That guy God only knows what's on there. Yeah exactly. Especially
from Raytheon. Right yeah like top secret. Yeah exactly. Military stuff. That's what I would say.
But if it's on floppy it's at least 20-30 years old so it's probably outdated.
Yeah what are you asking for the floppies? For um how about five dollars each or like?
Is this one and then this these AT&T ones? Both for eight. Okay yeah I'll do that.
No I just spent collecting vintage computers forever and anytime I can pick up floppy disks I
try to. Here's some paper plates from the 1991 Dick Tracy movie which I mentioned in a previous
video that I did see in the theater when it came out. Haven't seen it since and people have told
me it is available on streaming. I just need to find it. How you doing? Good how you doing? Good.
Oh six million dollar moon. That's cool right? Yeah. Did he used to have like a canopy or
oh okay. Something going on over there. Yeah I've never seen it before. It's neat. It is.
Oh Zaxxon. Yeah.
Okay do you know if it's complete? I'm pretty sure it is. You can check it out. I think it is.
Yeah I wouldn't even know if it was. The board's in good shape. Yeah cool.
So when I was at the flea market I swear he said it was 50 dollars five zero but he actually said
15. So if I had heard him properly I probably would have bought that for 15. This table is
four for a dollar. Yeah. All right and there you have it. That's the end of part one of the
Grafton Flea Market. There will be one more part to this video coming up at some point in the future.
