Steven… Thanks (as always) for posting!
Like many here, I haven’t been selling much at all lately but here are some recent sales:
Went to an estate sale at a hoarder house that was about to be demolished. It was quite frankly the most disgusting home we had ever gone to! Beyond filthy and smelly with explicit porn mags and videos strewn everywhere. Anyway, by the time we got there it was pretty picked over but i grabbed some good stuff including this Fenton Vase. Sold for $28. https://www.ebay.com/itm/363791798945
I picked up a large tub of materials from the Paramahansa Yogananda Self Realization organization (cult) for free at a yard sale. A definite BOLO. The magazines are pretty sought after so should sell out fairly quickly. But with $5/gallon gas these days who knows? 😛
This is an antique tobacco pamphlet. Instead of a card that came in a pack, the buyer had to save box tops and send them in through a catalogue. In my research, I found that ones in really good condition sold for $100, and those with condition issues were closer to $50. This one did have some issues, but was a little better than the $50 ones I saw. I felt that the $60 offer was reasonable.
Here’s one of my own sales. I bought a bookshelf full of older automotive repair books in an auction in April. I finally got them all listed, and this one sold right away. They aren’t worth much, but I paid $11 for the whole thing. This is a Mitchell repair book from 1960 that sold for $15. It covers some pretty cool car brands that are no longer around.
And another new/sealed bottle of high end perfume for $142. Interesting thing about these perfumes. I priced them a bit higher than what I found on Terrapeak assuming the buyers will want a bit off the top, but they are selling at full price!
