Lifehacker: “While some people are drawn to vintage or secondhand items like furniture, household goods, and clothing because of their style or their sustainability, others purchase pre-owned merchandise because it’s what they can afford. But if you’ve ever hit up thrift stores, yard sales, or flea markets hoping to find a particular piece, you probably noticed that prices of similar or even identical items can vary significantly depending on where they’re sold. That has to do with everything from supply and demand to the seller’s reason for getting rid of it, but it can also make it hard to determine whether that lamp you had your eye on is being offered at a decent price, or if you should continue your search elsewhere. Or, perhaps instead of shopping, you’re cleaning out your parents’ basement, and wondering whether the crystal candlesticks they received as a wedding present 40+ years ago are worth anything. Whatever the reason, if you want to get a general idea of the range of prices a vintage item is currently being sold for online, Google Lens can help. Here’s what to know about using the tool, including where to look if it’s not helping.”
