Just made roughly $350 this week

Amazing what people will pay and I loooooooooove bidding wars.

Here's a few of my items that sold fairly well

Wallace & Gromit Alarm Clock
Jeep plushie
Pussyfoot plushie
2005 Mustang RC car

Now I can pay off some bills.. by a new jacket and hopefully find something for my dad for Christmas.

I had some coins I bought from the mint. The Lincoln Penny proof had a slight error. An error which turned out to be somewhat common. But I sold some penny proofs for between $50 and $80. I had started the auction for $0.99. Not bad when you pay about $1 from the mint.

Oh no!!! Not the phalic Little Mermaid cover!!!! <_<

Personally, I always thought that some people had too much time on their hands. I bet you probably could fetch a nice price. After all, Amy sold a Burget King bag with Garfield supposing flipping the bird...

I have sold..............Two things this week....
Dale Earnhardt Diecasts and a misprinted Tv Guide with Adam Petty. It was made in 2000 but a printer error said 1999 on the side.

I have 44 scarves. I am attempting to sell them this morning at the Santa Shop at my youngers school. If successful I will have enough for my darlings Holiday present. If I sell them all, I am up $500.

Oh and I had a wheaties box on there, I did not misrepresent it as mint, because its been lying around since 1997 with wheaties in it- bought it cause it was Earnhardt. Some Wheaties collector bought it, It arrived damaged. I refunded half their money, and let them keep it, AND went out of my way to send them the USPS insurance claim forms. Guess what? The MFA still left me - feedback and never withdrew it. Plus I have sold a lot more stuff than left feedback.

That is how you get bit on the butt being nice. Where is Karma when you need it?

There's a lot of eBay newbies that don't understand how eBay works.

Ok... now I'm back to hating eBay haha

Got my first negative feedback in over a year. This guy was EXTREMELY late with his payment. I emailed him no less than 4 times, and no response. I give all buyers 10 days to send in their payment. It's eBay btw.. NOT LayawayBay.

So.. he sends me the money and I told him that I was going to deny it once his e-check cleared. He made some sob story about how he really wanted the item. So.. I finally caved in and mailed it

But, the little brat leaves me negative feedback as a get back at him for leaving him the negative feedback. He also tried reporting me to PayPal.. but it's past the 30 days

ARGH!!

You're lucky to break even at a craft show. I did one a couple years back and didn't do so good. But EVERYONE loved my items and ideas.

BUY SOMETHING THEN!! hahaha

Hey April.. can I request a certain scarf colors I think they are nice.. I'm interested in a purple, orange and maybe pink, green or teal blue, in it
