This was no garage sale income either - I could actually begin to sponsor my hobbies doing this. We emerged with some dollar store glitter, and behold - one boy's junk is another's. Fast forward to my college years. It begins with a attaining a four-year degree in engineering, I realized that I wanted to seek a career in service - I wanted to do something that would impact people in a lasting way. I pursued that dream and spent another four years working as a patrol officer and paramedic.
While I loved the work and the opportunities it gave me, I concluded that the medical field - specifically a Physician Associate (assistant) profession - was for me, but I had many courses that needed to be taken before I could apply and I was in need of a job. I had been a reserve police officer throughout college and knew that I enjoyed the profession. I transitioned to working fulltime with the Tulsa Police Department, during which I finished my paramedic license. During this time, I took classes and applied for PA school. I decided the best way to accomplish that lofty goal is by leaning on my skill set of trading collectables. Thus came about The Trouvaille Project (TTP). The Trouvaille Project's goal is to discover those "lucky" finds at hard to find estate, garage, auctions and other sales from across the world and make them readily available at fair pricing.It is with every intention that TTP buys responsibly and lists at a fair price. "Home Runs" or price gouging are not the point, but rather sales of relatively high volumes and mild margin products. At that point I will send an updated invoice. After the 7 days all auctions will be forfeited if not paid.
