Moving Right Along

Last Monday my listings were at about 454. Right now I am up to about 480 give or take. Planning to surpass 500 this week and attempt to get ready for the fourth quarter. My weekly numbers are at end of post.

 

Here are a few things that sold this week. Fire King Jadeite grease jar,salt and pepper set. This is from my personal collection. I use to have an abnormal obsession with all things Fire King.

 

Listed for 200.00 ( probably about two years) on sale for $180.00,accepted best offer of $150.00 buyer paid shipping. I paid more for the set YEARS ago when Jadite Fire King was the rage. It's time to let it go and move on.

 
I always pick up Amber colored glass. These were two heavy goblets, I think I paid $1.99 for the pair. Sold for $26.99 buyer paid shipping.

 

These are a recent purchase from Goodwill. $2.99 for the pair. Sold for $20.69 buyer paid shipping to Australia.
 
 

 

 

 

Six Flags Texas Giant mug with 22k gold by Culver. Paid .99 and sold for $14.99 the same day it was listed. Buyer paid shipping.

 

 

 

Goodwill had a plastic zipper bag of 16 pairs of pantyhose for $1.99. I picked it up last week and already one pair sold for 10.50 buyer paid shipping.

 

 

There were several pairs of Victoria Secret Panty hose in the bag, almost all of them have watchers. Makes you wonder why people are "watching" pantyhose.

 
This is a pic of me and Peyton. Peyton was hit by a car which broke his leg. Right before we could get him scheduled for surgery as he came down with Parvo which is a deadly virus if not treated.
 
He was treated for 10 days and is doing well. He is using his brok leg which has kinda healed. It may be too late to fix it now. But, he has a loving family that will take great care of him!
 
If you visit my store, you will see some of my listings benefit LEASH INC, ( throughout eBay giving works) a non profit very dear to my heart.
 
I invite you to help shelter dogs by selecting LEASH INC through eBay giving works. The funds raised help dogs like Peyton. At the very least, can you make it one of your favorites?
 
LEASH INC also sells on eBay under the name weloveshelterpets.

Average selling price $39.00 ( the fire king sale kinda skewed those numbers)

 

  • How was your week??

  1. Aww, Peyton is a beauty! Glad he found a new home. I can see why you loved the Jadeite. The color is so pretty. I had an obsession with lusterware (the orange and blue china made in Japan). I've been trying to sell some of it, but it's just not collectible unless it's art deco Noritake.

    1. Yes, the jadeite was a definite addiction. Peyton is happy in his new home!

  2. Congrats on the Fire King sale. I love jadite and would love the opportunity to sell some for a tidy profit. However, the only place I ever see it around here is at the auction house, and it always goes for more than I would be able to sell it for on eBay. Peyton is adorable! All of our pets have been rescues from our local shelter, and my daughter now volunteers at the shelter two days a week. They do such great work.

  3. Hello:
    Hope you still check your blog. I live in Gainesville and am thinking about taking another thrift trip to central Florida. What shops are your favorites?
    Thanks for sharing info about Leash Inc. We rescued 2 dogs from the Hillsborough Animal Shelter. I started following them on ebay. Hopefully can support the cause :)
