Thirsty's Auction House - Jan 24 2012, 1900hrs.
There were many personal heroes here tonight. Artist Leo Mol, Nintendo, Wolverine... even Vince Carter and Kobe Bryant... Yes, I know Nintendo is not a person, and "Yes" those people were NOT actually there, but a fair representation of them and many other items were on hand at tonight's auction. With such a diversity of items and a full house (as full as thirsty's can actually get), we needed all the help we could get, so we recruited out friend Poppa P to help us out. How did we do? Well, we did snag some unusual stuff, judging by that 7up ad, who knows what we got? Let's examine the night...

1980's Star Trek Poster - $20 (what?)

-1954 Joy House Movie Poster - $7.50 (valued $30)
-1980's X-Men Comics - $20

Check out the gallery, there were some high dollar items, but what we love about Thirty's is that there is a broad array of items, appealing to high rollers and "5 dollar ballers". I know the owner said he wanted to get more high end stuff.... but don't mess with a good thing. People have fun and spend money. I know we'll be back. We even booked 3 more people to come with us. Just what this auction needs... 3 more Filipinos looking for discounts. =)
-Happy Thrifting.
