eBay Scouting Hot Finds Newsletter
Friday Morning Edition
July 8, 2016

If you are a little jealous of all the pictures coming out of the Summit from folks attending the summer OA events you do have an option.  If you really want to try out the high adventure activities in the Summit center there is a Saturday only visitors pass available tomorrow and again on July 30th.  You won't get to hike to the OA ceremonial grounds but you can do some really great activities if you are young at heart.  
Vintage eBay Boy Scout Auctions This Weekend
Check out the auctions that I turned up for this lead off block in today's newsletter.  I never miss a chance to put a 1947 WJ patch in the newsletter considering I'll never forget the day that one sold on eBay for $72k which was definitely the all time record for any piece of Scouting memorabilia.
Auctions ending Friday and Saturday on eBay
Can I be one of those guys that picks up a Prism patch a year from now when the price comes way back down?  I do have a notebook of National OA events so eventually I'll need to snag one.
Boy Scout Memorabilia Auctions on eBay
I've heard from a few people that are setting up websites.  One of the questions I usually get is who do I use?  I'm not sure if it's the best but I've never had a problem with GoDaddy.  You can usually get a good deal one the first year so they can charge you about $15-$19 for every year to renew your domain name. If anybody has a specialty site they are setting up let me know!

Well the .99 cent auction experiment was not a blazing success.  My sell through rate was about 15% on nearly 800 auctions.  I had hoped to clear out more inventory but the good things is eBay keeps giving away free auction listings so I can give those patches another run and see what happens.
I am recovering this morning from the final move.  The guys showed up at 8 AM yesterday in Lumberton and left my new house in Charlotte at midnight.  We got all the big furniture moved in and now it's time to really start unpacking some boxes.  My eBay inventory is also now in Charlotte so I'll be shipping out stuff with a new zip code today.
Have a great weekend,
