Hey All, had some cool garage sale finds over the past couple weeks. People have really good stuff these days! Also, stay tuned for a YouTube channel and email address to come soon!

A reminder. Here is what we are interested in buying right now:
- unused guitars, basses, drums
- Guitar and bass amplifiers
- unused instruments of other types
- vinyl records
- sport memorabilia (not cards)
- vintage signage, brochures, etc from musical instrument manufacturers (Gibson, Fender, Gretsch, Yamaha, etc…)
- railroad memorabilia (signage, maps, branded trinkets (especially Great Northern Railroad))
- classic novels
- current YA novels and fiction (no romance)
- medieval themed items
- samurai/feudal Japan themed items
- musical instrument lesson books

If you have any of this stuff taking up space, let us know. We pay reasonable and fair amounts and pay cash on the spot for items we want!

Hey, I should have mentioned this in my initial post. We also also looking to buy railroad memorabilia as well! If you know anyone who has an attic or basement full of stuff they are looking to sell off, please send them our way.

I’ve had a few people reach out to me so far about stopping to check out what they have. Greatly appreciate it!

Call, text or pm me if you have any of the items list in the original post.

Here is how the process works:
- You call, text or dm us here on Facebook.
- We come to your house and take a look at what you have that fits what we are looking for.
- if you have something we want for our collection, we make you an offer.
- if you don’t have exactly what we want, we may still make an offer. In this case, we will be completely transparent about it and may try to sell the items. This is different than flipping in that we are not selling for triple what we paid for the items. We sell the items for 20-30% more than we pay you for them. Half of the profit from that sale goes to scholarships for local music programs like Eastern Iowa Arts Academy, Marion school of rock or music specific clubs in local middle schools!

Take care!

Hi All, and welcome to our business page - Eastern Iowa Attic Hunters. Quite simply, we are collectors, NOT FLIPPERS - meaning we don’t offer you pennies on the dollar then turn around and sell items for ridiculous amounts online. And, we are looking to expand and grow our collections.

The number one complaint we hear from friends and family when it comes to selling online: there are too many flippers - people who make lowball offers on unused items then turnaround and sell those items for triple or quadruple what they paid for it. We firmly believe this is not only greedy, but terribly dishonest.

That being said, we pay reasonable and fair amounts for items we want. And if we look at what’s available and decide not to buy, we help point you in the direction of someone who will. Give us a shot. We pay cold hard cash for unused items we have interest in.

Here is what we are currently interested in:
- Unused musical instruments
- electric and acoustic guitars
- electric and acoustic basses
- guitar and bass amplifiers
- drums, hardware and cymbals
- old vinyl records
- classic novels
- feudal Japan/samurai themed items
- medieval knight themed items
- music lesson books for all instruments
- cds (no hip-hop or rap)
- sports memorabilia (no cards though)

As part of our process we document any items purchased as part of the vast historical archive on YouTube.

Please note: in the event that we do end up selling an item we purchase from you, the majority of our profit margins will be donated to one of the following places:

1) School of Rock scholarships for kids/teens who want the opportunity to attend but don’t have the means to do so.
2) local middle school music programs or school clubs specifically geared toward learning instruments so they can purchase instruments or music for their members.

Give us a call today and let us take your unused items off your hands.
