I'm not very impressed with her "expertise", she authenticated a willie stargell signed baseball (live on TV) and priced it at 2500.00 and the signature was obviously fake. A authentic stargell signed baseball is worth around 100.00. not the first big blunder she made.
Did this ever happen to you? #eyeglasses
I sneezed so hard one time my right lens popped right out of my glasses while I was driving home
I love you. Your so funny. And yes this happened to me at work years ago. I couldn’t even drive home 😂😂😂
that would be ... Turn your glasses "virtical".. (so we can see you better)! lol 😉
You are too funny and so sincere and loving! Easy to relate to! Enjoy you so much!
Good afternoon and you are so very good thing we have so many laying around LOL
My lenses cost $200+ EACH. I can’t afford to have spare pairs. I envy those of you that can!
Yep, keep an extra pair, always. I even have a pair of sunglasses readers from Amazon. I love them.
You are funny and always cheerful. ♥️ a beautiful down to earth person.💎
How 😄 funny! Love all your shows and information ❤️
Did the lens just pop out? That’s an easy fix. I carry a tiny screwdriver in my purse to tighten the tiny screws on my glasses.
Mine broke while just sitting on my face!
How! Lol..good thing you have more around 😁
I have had that happen. Also the side stem breaks. No fun!
Yup. All the time - mostly step on them. Good to have extras to complete the garniture with you nose!
Yes, that has happened to me also.😁
For sure I have collection for the same reasons.
Last week, in fact, for me. It was my cheater pair and not my Rx pair thankfully. I had extra's like you said.
I had a pair do this right before the video call Saturday😜.
I have a least one pair in every room & several pairs next to my recliner. I hit Dollar Tree for my supply, 😆.
You remind me so much of myself 😂
I love your giggle!
You’re too cute. Buy at COSTCO, great deals! Plus I like you in glasses! 👍🏻
Oh my goodness your sooooo funny!
I always have readers stashed in every room. Can't even use my phone without them.
Ohhh I don't mean to laugh but I have to. Quit breaking your specks lol.
I'm appraising your stuff! More Goodwill finds! See the Fenton #glass, topaz #jewelry, and learn what a garniture set is from a fan in the UK.
Your hair looks so good today! I love it straight! Your lovely no matter what! Love from Alabama!
Watching from Wellington, Mo. Been watching for a few months now. I share your lives everytime I watch you.
Enjoyed this very much! Your hair looks wonderful. Can’t wait for your next video! I drink decaf coffee with cream, and one sugar sweetener.☕️☕️😉

Thanks for the tips dr Lori.. do you have any tips for selling in a booth type setting? Where you personally don't have contact with the buyers. How do you feel about booths that are crammed full of stuff as opposed to the ones that are artfully set up and sparse? I do do collections in my booth. Keeping a common theme together in groups. Even if it is just by color. Like all the blue items together. Thanks for you time.

New class added on November 2 at 7 PM et. Last 4 sold out! $39 pp and 1 item appraised.
I love that dish
Dr. Lori is the Best!!!
What I mean was, I will *Share* beforehand.
Dr. Lori, I am going to *Share* your two live broadcasts today. The first one at 5pm EST, I may not be able to attend, as it is a Sunday. On Sunday's I always listen to my friend and colleague's worldwide internet radio broadcast our of England. But the 7pm EST taping, I will be trying to get for the second time onto the show. I have a porcelain piece that I would love for you to see: an artist created plate with raised whales on the plate. The edges are wavy... And there is no support on the underside for hanging on a dining room wall.
Dr Lori, remember the country western singers "Roundup of the Stars" autograph board you appraised a few weeks ago? I'm Marian's twin sister and she & hubby Jim and his sister Janet delivered it to the radio station. Here's think to the event that made the local news in Billings, Montana www.ktvq.com/news/local-news/a-piece-of-country-music-history-finds-permanent-home-in-billings Marian and Jim are not on social but send their hellos and thank yous.

Got a favorite # game? GO
#game #app
The home made Yahtzee game my sister and I made as kids bec we didnt have the $ to buy one.. (we even carved our own wooden dice ) 😀
Settlers of Catan is a current favorite with our family. I just had some amazing vintage games donated at the thrift store
Qwirkle. Fun family game for all ages.
The games Sorry and Chutes and Ladders were my favorites when I was kid. All of my family enjoy playing Dominos now.
Remember the old game Racko . I bought that from a thrift shop for a dollar
My granddad was a card sharp. I learned to play poker and blackjack before anything else lol as a result I LOVE card games. Gin rummy and spades are my favorites. Luckily I don't live to close to casinos and rather spend my money on art and glass but I do like to gamble occasionally 😉
Playing Cards & Dice games were popular in our household.
LIFE, Monopoly & Operation were my favorites when I was a child.
One vintage game I have is Park and Shop. So much fun!
Cooties as a kid now it’s dominos or scrabble
When I was a kid I loved Cooks Tours a European Travel Game. I still have it too!
Scrabble
Oh that one's addicting for sure! I'm a Candy Crusher and Backgammon.
Cribbage. 100%
Masterpiece!
Puzzle games.
I play Wordscape...kinda boring, lol.

Dr.Lori, thank you for the tip, regarding appraisals. If a piece is literally not worth as much as the piece, then there is no charge (and no appraisal). I think that is very fair of you!
