I did a little better on this auction.

$21.57 plus $3.99 S&H. OK, but I probably would have done a little better if Christmas was not right around the corner.

Did Not Sell Department: American Heritage Cookbooks

This item went unsold on two seperate occassions in December. I think this would have sold if it had not been so close to Christmas.

What is The Best Time of Year to Sell on ebay?

If the item in question is a gift, early December is a good time. If it is an item directed at the final owner, December is not such a good time. People focus their time and $ on Christmas gifts.

Ah, but I am moving and that caused me to fast forward my auction schedule. I am trying to lighten my load. So I probably did not get top $ for a lot of my auctions.



This item only fetched $1.04 (plus $3.99 S&H.) I sold a similar item (not identical) on half.com earlier this year for $73.

Anatomy of a scam

I received this email from what I believe to be a confidence man. A scammer. He has a secretary who writes checks and a mover who scours the countryside for treasures and he wants used furniture?

"Hello,
Thanks very much for getting back to me ,I will like to tell you that
the payment would be sent by UPS courier company and the item will be
picked up as soon as you receive my payment,I will wait for the
payment to get cashed before i'd send my mover for the pick up.I
will like to tell you that i would be sending a check worth of $3850
covering the shipment of the item. and the money for the item should
be $385.As soon as certified check reaches you,have it cashed and
remove your money for the item and send the remaining fund to my
mover by western union money transfer.My shipper is also picking
some of my other items up for me in the same city of yours, so that is
why i need to give him that amount.I will like you to remove $100 for
your running around in getting the check cashed...pls let me know if i
can trust you on this..Regards"

A Recent Craigslist Item

The pics were taken last summer. I ran it on Craigslist when the sun was warm and got a few inquiries but no one bought it. Ran it again earlier this week. People seem to be more safe-conscious in cold weather.

One of My Craigslist Sales

Unfortunately, this vid took me hours to compile. I had not produced any vids in over a year and there was a lot of rust and a lot of "how did we do this?" Then I ran into repeated technical problems that still don't make sense to me.

Hope to iron out the problems and have my vid production on cruise control in the next few days.

African Scammers

It is a shame that Africa produces so many scammers. Most Africans are honest, God-fearing people and this small, corrupt minority makes trading with all Africans a risky proposition.

Newspapers Featuring Yankees World Series Still a Hot Item

Imagine a product that can be resold at 50X markup. They happen all the time but you have to have your eyes open. New York newspapers that feature the New York Yankees World Series victory could be purchased for 50 cents and resold for $25. Don't feel bad if you missed out. I did too. Doh.

OK, So I Picked a Bad Time to Start a Blog

I hate blogs that start off with a bang and then fizzle. This blog is currently like that. I should have waited a few weeks before starting it because mechanical difficulties (blown head gasket) had already materialized. So no, I have not done any selling since starting this blog. I have been chatting with mechanics and salesmen. I have also been car pooling with an old friend. But I have not been selling.

Anyway, when I resolve the transportation ordeal, I will be a regular blogger. No more fizzle here. Sell on!
