“How’s it going guys?!? I’m finally back with a video on YouTube (http://youtube.com/ounitproductions) to share some of my latest finds for resale from this past week, and OFFICIALLY launch ThriftandVintageAdventures.com!Thank you for checking out the site, and STAY TUNED for much more content! Videos from my travels where I buy and sell, recent sales, behind-the-scenes access to different things I do, and much more. I promise this is going to be a fun ride, thanks for jumping on board!
How’s it going everyone, I hope great! I’ve been busy today working on our Etsy store, adding new stuff, etc… We have lots of ideas/plans for this store as Spring continues and Summer approaches, fun stuff! Etsy along with eBay and our now TWO instead of three co-op booths will be keeping us busy all year, and we plan on setting up as a vendor at Flea Markets as well. Going to be a busy, busy year and I love it!
We’re not too far now from April 1st next Monday (not to mention Easter THIS SUNDAY!) and the relaunch of both our shops. “OUP Thrift & Vintage @ Roller Mills Antiques” and “Brent’s Advertising & Collectibles @ Big Valley Antiques.” Very fun, busy times! Can’t wait to share some of the other things I’ve been working on with you guys as well, working on getting a lot of content to my liking then I’ll be sharing. Thanks for hanging along for the ride!
Be sure to follow along tomorrow on Twitter @oup for #FreshPickedThursdays
Here it is Wednesday already!!! Just got back from having lunch & shopping a bit with my girlfriend, and also making our daily Post Office trip… TOMORROW don’t forget to follow along @oup on Twitter (http://twitter.com/oup) for this week’s #FreshPickedThursdays!
The plan for tomorrow is to work mainly in my booth down in Lewisburg at Roller Mills Antiques, which beginning in April will be relaunched as “OUP Thrift & Vintage!” HOPEFULLY SEE YOU ALL TOMORROW!
Hello everyone, hope you are having a great weekend!
Today I am in the office listing some new items in eBay, and getting ready for this week where I’ll be doing much more the same there, as well as Etsy & Amazon. Speaking of Amazon, last night I put up 50 items (the biggest effort I’ve put into learning the ways of Amazon so far) and made my first sale! Excited to expand the page, especially now that it’s ALMOST officially Spring!
I am just about to package up a few items for shipment tomorrow, before relaxing a bit this afternoon (if I get around to doing that!). It’s a beautiful day outside here in Central PA, and was much the same yesterday. Me and my girlfriend Brandi decided to go get a car wash and detail yesterday, and you can see her giving the big “thumbs up” in the picture included in this post. Spring is almost here, Yard Sales & Flea Markets are about to pick up, days are now “longer” now that Daylight Savings Time has passed, what more could you ask for?!?
It’s going to be a busy month as I continue working on closing down my one Antique Mall booth, and relaunching/expanding my other two. Tons of other projects going on as well…. LIFE IS GREAT! Enjoy the rest of your weekend and I’ll check back tomorrow with something new RIGHT HERE on BrentOtt.com!
In this latest episode I talk about Outbox, YouTube’s new OneChannel layouts, introduce the “Thumb of the Day,” and much more! Lots of info PACKED into this half hour!
Next Monday night BOTH Glendon Cameron & The Redneck Picker will be joining us LIVE on the 25th Episode Celebration of “Trash Talk & Treasures” with Brent & Wally. You are not going to want to miss this special night!

I had a great day today with my Mom going into my one booth at Roller Mills Antiques and refreshing the booth. Also shopping around Lewisburg a bit, having dinner, and looking around other thrift/junk shops. Now I’m home, relaxing the rest of the evening after posting this, and getting ready to possibly hit an auction tomorrow! Just looked at the pictures for the one I was most excited for, and nothing really to phone home about. Perhaps I will find a different one. Regardless beforehand I have to go pay my rents at my booths at Plaza Centre & Big Valley. Should be a fun morning!
Also since today is the 31st and end of January, that makes me one month down on my goal of blogging EVERY day here on BrentOtt.com… it’s been fun so far! Lots of ideas yet to make happen!
I figured I’d leave you with some cell phone shots of some recent things I’ve been finding/thought were cool… ENJOY! I’ll check back in tomorrow morning, or after my day of travel. HAPPY FEBRUARY!
Hope you enjoyed!
I also plan on doing another little post soon on a pretty cool business idea/concept I came across that I wanted to share…. Thanks again guys! See you soon!
Today was a super busy day traveling a bit, and getting some awesome finds for all the retail outlets. Sometimes I forget how I simply love just being out there and in the thick of it…. 2013 will be fun!
I hope you have enjoyed these exclusive “Picking” episodes these past few days! It was fun kicking it “old school” and putting out these videos. Perhaps I’ll put up more from time to time if you would like to see that, just let me know! In the meanwhile stay tuned while I continue to work on “Project X” and other side things in 2013!

What’s going on guys?!? First and foremost, I just wanted to let you all know that my auction day yesterday was an absolute WIN. I actually only ended up going to the first of the two I had planned, simply because the first ended up being such a great auction, and also I ended up being there from about 1 PM EST until about 9 PM EST! Crazy day! Put this auction in my short list of favorites for sure.
I got so much stuff that my week ahead is going to be super busy processing for eBay, Etsy, and all three of my co-op booths. However I am so excited that the work almost seems like nothing compared to the money I’m going to be making! The funny thing about this business, and just simply working for yourself in general, is that even when you work 100+ hours per week it never really seems like it. I absolutely love what I do for a living!
Honestly, not to brag or anything, but getting out to this auction yesterday just made me realize how good I am at what I do. I have been full-time now for over two years and I continue to see myself grow. My eye is way more trained than it was when I began. The thing is, it will continue to get better and better. As is the case with anything, the more effort, time, and passion you put into what you do, the better you will become.
I am in-the-trenches right now working on “Project X,” as well as other side projects coming in 2013, but for this week only (at least for now) I’ve decided to kick it “old school” and put out exclusive episodes of “Picking” right here on BrentOtt.com! These will be unlisted YouTube videos, which EVENTUALLY I may make “public” on YouTube, but I thought it would be fun to do this! I get a lot of email, comments, and other messages asking to showcase more hauls. This week I am answering that request and doing so strong with these several new episodes. For me 2013 is a year of several things. First off, I am of course growing the entertainment and content end of my website/company, but at the same time I am focusing heavily on growing the retail end as well. There are a lot of people who talk. I myself am a talker. But if you truly deserve to have the RIGHT to talk and entertain, you must still be able to prove that you can DO. Believe me you, I STILL know how to make things happen!
The fact that these episodes will only be seen by a smaller audience, and the ones who truly appreciate what it is I do, really means a lot to me. I hope you guys enjoy seeing what I have NEVER stopped doing these last few months, and also enjoy seeing how my buying skills have changed and grown. 2013 will be a year of growth for “Trash Talk & Treasures,” “Project X,” BrentOtt.com, OUnitProductions.com, EVERYTHING I do. It will however be a year of MUCH more doing, and less saying, or “talking about.” It’s time to crush it on an entire new level!
