It will at least motivate you to head up to your attic right away and do some early Spring cleaning!
American Girl Samantha Doll
Samantha was one of the original American Girl dolls. And if you’re willing to part with your old childhood doll, you can get as much as $600 to about $3,300 for her. But make sure she’s in good condition and still has her original clothes and accessories.
Antique Christmas Ornaments
You might find a box full of Christmas ornaments that your family has collected over the years. Well, the material these fragile ornaments are made of, like hand-blown glass, can be very valuable.
Some of them can go for $1,700 while others like the German pear-shaped Kugel ornament can be worth $18,000. But this next gift you might have gotten under the tree is worth some money, too.
Vinyl Records
Those vinyl records your parents or grandparents placed in a box could be very valuable now. According to the Reverb LP marketplace, the 1957 Elvis Christmas album is worth about $149. So, who’s to say you don’t have a fortune in vinyl records just sitting in your attic?
But look for the machine that plays it too, you won’t regret it.
Milk Glass Easter Eggs
If you happen to find a full set of hand-blown mill glass eggs in your parent’s attic, don’t turn them into an Easter centerpiece during springtime. A full set of undamaged eggs can earn you about $775. But that’s not the only holiday decor that has increased in value over the years.
This next item won’t have any cookies, but you can buy some after you sell it.
