[QUOTE="SBSVC, post: 1785, member: 136"]Although no one has invited me, I have signed up here and hope nobody minds. :angelic: I’ve been on the eBay boards since the late 1990’s under a couple of different names. I’ve been using SBSVC and one other (though for a completely different category) since 2006, although a bazillion of my posts disappeared when the boards changed over to Lithium (and nope – they’re not in the “archived” threads now, either…) I used to concentrate on silver, but over the last few years, I’ve been posting on collectibles, vintage, fine jewelry, art, and a few other boards, as well. The lack of an ignore feature just about did me in on Antiques – although I continued to read everything, I rarely commented anymore. In about 2 weeks, DH & I should be about finished packing and ready for our move (scheduled for 6/18-19) from CT to NH. We have cleared out truckloads – mostly to local charities – and I know we are still moving way too much. It’s been a monumental task, and I hope I’ll never have to do it again. I’ve been browsing the forums lately more as a bit of relief from the labors of sorting and packing than anything else. On one of the boards, I saw someone’s great “find” posted, along with a comment to the effect that “people just don’t know what they’re giving away!” I checked that poster’s location, and I am 99.9% sure that her “find” came from me – and I know where she “found” it! I wanted to say, “Yes, some people DO know what they’re giving away,” but I thought that might be too snarky. Either way, I’m happy that a new owner or two might appreciate some of my downsizing. I’m thrilled to see lots of familiar names here, and I thank everyone involved in getting this site going again. All the best, -C-[/QUOTE]
