Update: I was typing so fast I didn’t think about what I was writing. I have a favorite saying “you can kiss my furry little ass!” and it referred to a toy donkey I had for years. I no longer have the donkey but I retained the saying. Now it’s become a family joke about my “furry little ass” and I was in such a rush I said “hairy” in the post.
Joke’s on me!
Oh my gosh oh my gosh oh my gosh! I am so sorry ladies!
We moved business premises and I have been working my little hairy ass to death! I completely forgot to post last week (and worse, would have protested vehemently that I didn’t!)
I will double post this week! Sincere apologies!
As I’m on a deadline, I haven’t had time to read all the posts, but will do so this afternoon/evening and then get myself up to date and your spreadsheet updated.
Sold for $24.50 in 2018.
Doing a search for Alex Willie Native American and filtering to only art pieces, then removing those that don’t look like the one you linked, I only get 8 sold. One sold for $15 (2008), 3 sold for mid-$20s (all 2018), 2 sold for about $50 (2007 & 2021).
This one sold for $69.99 in March this year https://www.worthpoint.com/worthopedia/vintage-alex-willie-native-american-4621188463
All of the above were sold on eBay. The outlier was sold via Auction service for $161.40 in 2008 https://www.worthpoint.com/worthopedia/alex-willie-3831335807
Congrats on a great week, everyone! Apologies for not posting yesterday, things are in a bit of an upheaval here. Dearly Beloved went to town on Saturday to buy car parts. He phoned to say he was on his way home with paint, as “we” are going to paint the living room, and will I please clear it out in the 40 minutes it will take him to get home. Wait… what?

It’s like we moved into a new house! Even with the lights off, it’s brighter than the old room with the lights on. I’m thrilled! I’ll post better photos when the furniture is back in place. We’re waiting until the weekend to return items to the room just in case that dreadful red bleeds through. TWO coats of shellac primer to cover it up, but on the back wall, there was gold spray paint too. In the interim, I managed to get my PC and printer set up on the dining room table last night, but was just too tired to do anything with it. LOL
Julie wins the week! Congrats, Jules! Spreadsheet updated. I haven’t added a link in ages, so here it is for you.
Hey Julie! Welcome back! No worries, Sharyn doesn’t tell us when she’s going to be away for security reasons – a great point! However, we do miss you if you’re not here.
Sounds like you had a great time though. I’ll update the spreadsheet for you and all is good.
Those of you who are struggling with all of the eBay glitches, it’s not just you! There are a lot of them. So many, in fact, that eBay has made a list of them!
Take heart, tax day has passed and soon folks will be getting their refunds and looking to spend, spend, spend. If the search function comes back with the item they’re looking for! LOL
Gaaaaah! For some reason my post didn’t post, so there’s no reply here!
Good job I checked to see if Julie had popped up.
Congrats, Christine, you got the highest number again this week, and you posted in time to win the week! I felt so bad for you last week.
Lacy, sorry that your weather bombed your show. It has been very odd weather this year, but I’m not going to complain. We’re getting sorely needed rain here!
Does anyone know what has happened to Julie? I’ll have to check in on her if we don’t hear soon. You guys are all like my little chicks – I worry about you! 😀
Bah humbug. NOT a good week after all! Total of 5 items listed. I really hoped I would do better than that. However, it was a full week of errands and running around, not much time at home to do mundane tasks like listings.
Oh, goodness! I didn’t even notice the dates! You are correct, Sharyn! Sorry, Christine, you would have won if you posted on Monday.
I won! I won! After all the work I did, that’s quite a boost!
Lacy is running her Show, as I thought. Check it out here. So many treasures! I love that piece at 2:22 – if I were close enough I’d snap that up! And those rose cushions your Mom made, Lacy. Just wow!
@Sharyn LOL. I just love your enthusiasm! However, Christine absolutely trounced me, listing over double my number! I’m guessing that Lacy is busy with her show at the moment, she said it was starting around now, and it seems JR has abandoned us, so it’s only Julie who is missing.
Congrats, Christine, on some seriously impressive numbers! Very well done! That earned you your first win for the year. Here’s to more!
I kicked off the week with 2 listings on FB, but I still plan to get 15 up on eBay, so I should beat my listing target. It is seriously hard work, putting in long hours. My photos are definitely the reason I’m slow. If I can figure out how to get them decent enough to snap and share without editing, I’ll knock hours off my day! Sharyn posted months ago about buying gray for her background and that she thought her photos looked better, so today I stopped at Hobby Lobby and picked up some gray felt. I’m very curious to see how much difference it makes in my photos, because the last two days were frustrating!
I did it! I did it! I did it!
It took me all the way until today, but I achieved my goal of 15 listings this week! Happy Snoopy dance!
I’ve had a devil of a time with photographs and finally switched to a cheap-ass phone that has NO auto-correction technology. It worked! Fingers crossed it wasn’t a glitch and that it will work on all the remaining clothes that I have got ready. I worked out that if I do 3 items per day, it will take me about 101 days to get them all up! You will probably feel the earth rocking from the dance I do on the last day! LOL. This is the continuation of my MMC that has turned into my April Adherence Challenge (AAC.)
Gonna stick to 15 for my goal this week while I continue to work on getting the photo/color/light issues resolved. But oh, it would be fantastic if I could surpass that!
On Tuesday I had the joy of buying my birthday present. All of my birthday money combined came to just enough to cover the cost of my new serger! I’ve only just unpacked it today – my reward for achieving my target. I’ve not yet sewn on it though. I didn’t manage to get through my work until now (nearly 5PM) so it might only get its first go tomorrow. I’m going to see if I can test the furbles patience and delay dinner so that I can actually at least get it set up and do a test seam. Probably not – the menagerie “ibs starbing and hasn’t eaten for elebenty hours!” 😀
Wishing you all a great week!
Sharyn got the highest number of listings, but as she won last year, she receives only an Honorable Mention. Julie took the win again. Congratulations!
Wishing you all a great week!
Been using it for quite some time now. It didn’t occur to me that others might not know about it – I’m usually the last to find some widget that helps. LOL
10 f0r me again. I had hoped to have higher numbers, but as my goal was 10, I’m happy to have made it. My new goal for this week is 15.
Hope everyone had a very happy Easter! I found a sleepshirt at the thrift store that said it all:
“Every time there is a mention of exercise I go wash my mouth out with chocolate!” 😀
