Greetings!
Today eBay is returning to its magical summertime strategy of allowing sellers the chance to list auctions for just a penny. If history is our guide that means you can expect to see the auction listings in the Boy Scout category balloon to over fifteen thousand before the day is out. Luckily, you've got the Hot Finds to help you never miss a beat, or should I say auction.

World Scout Jamboree & International Gold
You should see what the gold stick decoration is selling for this week. I'm not sure that is something I would take to camp to show off. Speaking of showing off the orange border 2011 patch has sold for over $600 recently so let's keep an eye on the one pictured below.

Order of the Arrow Auctions Hot
This block is dominated by classic OA conference patches which is a treat for anybody from Texas. You gotta love a patch that is affectionately called the "kidney bean".

This email covers auctions that are ending in the next three days on eBay. I've saved this block to share items that aren't necessarily vintage. Hey even modern rarities deserve a mention every once in awhile.
