Message:: [QUOTE="J Dagger, post: 9499101, member: 10944"]That is also a great feeling for sure! What a score those were. I probably wouldn’t have even bought them if I spotted them at a thrift. I haven’t had one of those in a while that I can think of. Well that’s not true. I bought a lot for $50. There was one piece I had a sneaking suspicion was going to be good but wasn’t sure how good at all. Ended up selling it for $600 or so. That was a surprise. What was more of a surprise was that most of the other stuff in the lot was also quite valuable. I’ll clear 2k or so on it after all is said and done. This was a big, very well known auction house that advertises heavily. Lot opened at $100 and was about to pass at a reduced opening bid of $50. Other than that I’ve had a lot of good sales lately but none that were super surprising. My other favorite feeling is when I buy something on eBay and then turn around and sell it on eBay for way more than I bought it for. I really love that. You feel quite clever after completing one of those deals. Two weeks ago I won a lot for $100. Got it and listed it within the same week. Within 24hrs or so I sold it for around $500. Very satisfying.[/QUOTE]
