EBay, Collectors, Flea Market & Antiques

Us"old timers" are facing a common generational problem. The younger folks are not interested in the "old" furniture, pictures, lamps, etc.
They are interested in the "vintage" ( think "real&quot pre-1990 stuff like those skillets, kitchen tools, linens, etc.
All that stuff we have had since we set up house 50 years ago.
Hell, I am interested in it when I have to replace stuff, and vintage sales on etsy/ebay are, as you know, doing well.

Like you, I have the problem of winnowing out the furniture and other heavy stuff. even the skillets...costs a fortune to sell/ship anything.
Worse yet, we live 2 hours from any city...large meaning 250,000 pop. of Mobile/Montgomery here in
Alabama. All of our offspring live in other states.
Everyone in our small area has the same issue; houses filled with antique/vintage stuff.
No auctions, and now no antique shops since the only place closed a few years ago.

Yard sales are filed with used clothes, cheap picture frames, plastic this and that. Same at the Goodwill, 'cause people around here are pretty thrifty already.

I am stymied.
