Michael Noto What "Treasures" Have You Found While Rehabbing Houses?
26 June 2015 | 22 replies
In a recent house, we found:- Lots of ammunition (sold it in bulk for $500 to a gun collector from Facebook)- Baseball cards (sold 4 cards for total of $200 on eBay)- Large Buck knife collection (sold most of them for $600 on eBay, saved a few)- Several thousand comic books (book value probably $1000-3000, though we haven't sold them yet)-  About two dozen books from the 1800s, in very good condition (likely not worth much, but very cool, and there is one book that has a good story to go with it that might help me to meet Neil deGrasse Tyson)-  An air rifle from the 1870s.

I did not want to replace the tubs, and the refinished tub looked much better than before.If you are using it on a higher end rental or on your personal residence, you may have higher expectations.Please note that you should definitely have a lot of air circulation (ventilation) in the room - the smell/fumes are quite strong.
