Dr. Lori's new books
Don't Host a Yard Sale!
Cooking with Antiques
Don't Host a Yard Sale!
(TM)
Do you want to get top dollar for your objects? It will never happen at a
yard sale. Dr. Lori highlights the reasons why selling at a yard sale is
just plain stupid in her upcoming Don't Host a Yard Sale
(TM)
book.
Here are some topics she'll cover ....
Don't allow early birds
When you host a yard sale, you will hear an early
morning knock at your door from a professional antiques reseller who wants
first pick at what you think is junk. Then, already tired from moving boxes
onto the lawn late the night before, you will fight with this dealer to pay
you a quarter for that ugly 1950s hula girl lamp. He knows that he'll
turn around and sell that ugly hula girl lamp for $450 (yes, that's what
people really pay!). Do you think that is fair? You might as well save
yourself the time and aggravation of hosting a yard sale and just put all of
the clutter from your attic right out onto the curb. Read this book so you
don't host a yard sale and unknowingly sell a $450 lamp for a quarter.
Don't believe your trash is somebody's treasure
How does Dr. Lori know? From Dr. Lori's evaluations of over 20,000 objects a
year, her hundreds of antique appraisal events across the country, and her
actual yard sale visits to help hosts avoid a major loss, she sees the
mistakes yard sale hosts make all the time. Dr. Lori sees the money that
antiques resellers have made from what you unknowingly think is just ugly
trash. Dr. Lori advises that you don't buy into that phrase "one man's trash
is another man's treasure." Your "trash" can be your "treasure" and it can
bring YOU big money instead of someone else!
Don't think this book won't cause controversy
Dr. Lori's gets Hate Mail from many antique resellers who profit from yard
sale hosts' mistakes and ignorance, but despite the controversy, Dr. Lori
will continue to reveal the truth about what's happening at American yard
sales. She is not going to tell you the same old typical stuff that other
so-called "experts" might tell you because many of them want to find
bargains at your yard sales for themselves at your expense. Dr. Lori wants
to you to use her expertise to help you!
Read this book to learn how to avoid mistakes when selling your antiques,
collectibles, and those items that you incorrectly identify as ugly junk.
Don't read the horror stories if you have a weak stomach
Don't listen to that "know it all" brother in law or spouse in your life who
hasn't read Dr. Lori's book, hasn't attended one of Dr. Lori's events, or
hasn't seen Dr. Lori on TV showing you the real deal as to why you shouldn't
host a yard sale. Buy Dr. Lori's book and show them one of the real life
horror stories that is outlined including the yard sale shoppers who case
your home in preparation for a future burglary, or those "shoppers" who are
just there to distract you so they can actually steal valuables from your
front lawn. By highlighting the yard sale mistakes of other yard sale hosts
across the country who Dr. Lori has met personally, you will learn how to
avoid selling your unwanted junk for very little money. This is the one book
that you can't afford not to read.

Cooking with Antiques
With a love of chocolate and a knowledge of food history and symbolism, Dr.
Lori can be seen on various TV programs preparing (and eating!) her favorite
recipes. Due to the popularity of these TV appearances, Dr. Lori decided to
write a book including her recipes and her understanding of food and cooking
trivia. Dr. Lori uses her Ph.D. in art history and her humorous approach to
highlight what we cook and why we eat the way we do. In her forthcoming book
titled Cooking with Antiques, you'll learn to sample new dishes and chuckle
as Dr. Lori also discusses kitchen design trends and highlights the valuable
cooking collectibles that may be hiding in your pantry.
