DeKALB – Instead of waiting for stuff to find them, buyers from Uncle Bucks Collectors TradeShow take a proactive approach to finding rare, unique items by heading to different cities.

Their most recent search has brought them to DeKalb, where they’ll be hunting for anything and everything that might have some resale value through Saturday afternoon.

Buyers Mike Staab and Argen Dodds paid cash on the spot to anyone willing to sell anything from used musical instruments and old jewelry to war memorabilia or old toys.
