Once the free insertion fees have been used, the 5-cent promotional rate will apply to eligible listings.

Frustrations

Today has not been the best...the modem to my desktop computer is not working right.  I have had to work on my little mini laptop, using the hotspot function on my Palm Pre...I suppose it could be worse--I might have no internet connection at all and have to go work at the library...


And, to top it off--eBay is having a 3-day listing sale!  I could have gotten a lot of work done if I had the larger computer available.  I did get three items listed: a Christmas sweatshirt with a McDonald's theme (the arches are peppermint sticks and the Hamburgler is peeking out from behind one arch), a glass mug dated 1979 with Ziggy on it, and an antique cloisonne vase from either China or Japan.  In the description  I asked for help identifying it--sometimes that helps.


Anyone else out there taking advantage of the listing sale on eBay?  Remember: all auction style listings cost just ten cents no matter what yoyr asking price is!  That offer is good for three days--today, Wednesday, and Thursday. 

Shopping for Inventory

I had so much fun yesterday—The new Goodwill in town opened so I had to go there to check out their shelves.  And, one of the larger churches here started their annual 3-day rummage sale.  I would have been hard put to decide which to attend first, but that decision was made for me—the rummage sale didn’t start until 4.  So I went to Goodwill first! It was very crowded since it was opening day!

The new store was larger than I was led to believe (good rule: don’t listen to gossip LOL).  I came home with books (of course!), a cute blue cat statue (later I was told it’s probably by Laurel Birch), a metal Roadrunner (I thought it was a pheasant until John told me otherwise…), a bunch of 1993 Civil War magazines, a fantastic retro candy dish/ash tray by Sasha Brastoff, a Mermaid Starbucks mug (forgot to include that in the picture…), and still more books! 

I got the books all scanned yesterday evening while watching TV and am now in the process of listing all this good stuff!  Of course, if you see anything you like, check for it in my eBay store!
