[QUOTE="daveydempsey, post: 9561259, member: 22"]We have a finds thread and I thought it would be a good idea to have a sold thread. I'm thinking of retiring within the next week and the next 5 years. If I can't lift heavy stuff then its time to chuck it. I have obtained tons of antiques and artifacts and have 3 Victorian stables and a Dutch barn stacked to the rafters. At home I have lots of smaller valuable / collectable/ perishable items and it all has to go. I decided to list just smaller paper items on eBay and I was very surprised at the prices realized. I recovered around 1000 British & European 1950's Football (Soccer) programmes a few years ago, I listed a few at £0.99 each. [ATTACH=full]457484[/ATTACH] Sold for £47 (US$58) [ATTACH=full]457485[/ATTACH] This one sold for £23 ($28) [ATTACH=full]457487[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]457486[/ATTACH] An empty carboard Bucherer watch/jewellry box I got about 3 years ago , I knew as soon as I saw it it would fetch money. It sold for £35 ($43) Over £100 ($122) with 3 items I just shipped 27 paper items over the last two weeks and did a pretty penny, the shipping was free to me as I found the stamps in the clearances.[/QUOTE]
