eBay Scouting Hot Finds Newsletter

Sunday Morning

September 20, 2015

I've spotted some really good auctions this weekend and I hope you'll take a minute to click over and see where they are trending. Sorry for some glitches that last few days - it's not always a well oil machine when you have a lot of other pans in the fire.

Vintage Auctions Ending Soon on eBay

I am a little surprised to see that the sash pictured below is over $500 in bidding. Not that there aren't some great 1940s era merit badges on there but from the not so great pictures it appears that everything is trimmed. As some of you know when you trim a crimped edge MB it sometimes makes it impossible to identify what era it is from. But somebody knows what they are doing and I wish them luck landing it.

Order of the Arrow Auctions Closing Soon

This block is still full of new stuff but the old vintage stuff is rising to the top. In the upper right hand corner of this issue you will find a charter member flap that is hot off the presses. Just in the last few weeks Abnaki merged and changed it's lodge # so we now have a new lodge. Obviously a lot of collectors need that new S1!

Boy Scout Auctions Ending This Weekend

The old vest below is full of 1940's era activity and camp patches. I'm glad I found that one to stick in the newsletter! It's probably going to get down to a good old fashioned bidding war which is what eBay loves to see.

Well my favorite college team got a beat down at the hands of the GA Bulldogs last night. Of course Alabama fans also have a football hangover tonight. I think college football is so fascinating because you never really know what's going to happen until the kick it off and hope bounds eternal.
