eBay Scouting Hot Finds Newsletter
Sunday Morning
August 7, 2016
Well for a long time now I've been talking about getting some new stuff listed up on eBay.  Finally, I have something to show for all my unpacking boxes and getting settled in the new office space that we've dubbed the "patch cave".  Tuesday night I've got over 200 JSP & Staff issues from previous Jamborees ending on eBay.  The goal is to have a few hundred new auctions running every week so hopefully I'll get on a roll.     
BRAND NEW LISTINGS! ENDING TUESDAY
Vintage Scouting Auctions Live on eBay
Don't you love it when the only memorabilia issue for an event was a plastic neckerchief slide!?  The 1955 6A issue pictured below is kinda legendary because there was no patch issued that year.  If OA is not your thing I'm sure something else in this lead off block will tempt you to click over to eBay.
Order of the Arrow Auctions Looking Good
As soon as church is over this morning I am due to make a phone call to the west coast about a small collection.  My wife is not real keen on my habit of adding to the pile of Scout stuff in our house so I might have to sneak out back and walk down the creek to have this conversation. :)
Auctions Ending Soon With Bids on eBay
I watched my first Facebook Live video this weekend and it was being filmed at the Summit.  Some of the organizers of the 2019 World Jamboree were there at a meeting and they did a sort of Q&A video that was beamed out across the world.  Their excitement about the whole experience can be described as "giddy".  They are looking for 10,000 Scouters to serve on the International Service Team.  This could be you (or me!) in 2019.

Santeeswapper on eBay Patchblanket.com
I have been experimenting with different promotions, coupons and other ways to entice people to visit my store at www.Patchblanket.com.  The latest thing I am trying is a promotion for a pretty popular category in my store.  Over in my 2015 NOAC category if you purchase $75 worth of items you will instantly get $10 back.  It's all handled through eBay.
I am getting closer to securing a kitchen pass to attend the Occoneechee Lodge TOR at Camp Durant in NC later this month.  My wife actually asked me in the car yesterday what weekend it was as she was working on the family calendar.  Fingers crossed!

scoutpatchhq I am having fun with my latest eBay alternative platform.  With a 9,000+ member Scout Patch Collectors Facebook Group it seems like Facebook is the place to be.  Therefore, I'm leveraging my Facebook Business Page for the Scouting Hot Finds Newsletter to offer patches for sale with free shipping.  Everything is in themed albums at www.ScoutPatchHQ.com.
