Things are beginning to pick up as I tip my toes into the consignment business again. I've got one collection that I hope UPS brings me some boxes from today and another that should also come in this week. I'm pretty picky about taking things on but when you are doing eBay full time it's a good move.

Vintage Boy Scout Memorabilia Up First
I'm going to try something today that might seem a little silly. Over on the Facebook Group I'm going to post pictures of scout t-shirts for sale practically for free (just shipping). My wife is on the warpath on the amount of Rubbermaid totes so I'm going to see if I can "free-cycle" some shirts back to people who would appreciate them. You can find all this at the Scout Patch Collectors Facebook Group (probably after lunch).

Order of the Arrow Auctions Live on eBay
Occoneechee Lodge 104 issued some neat TOR pieces for their August show and a set of that is up for bids below. I talked to the author of their memorabilia book Greg Grimes on the phone yesterday to get some tips as I begin rewriting the guide for my home lodge Santee 116.

Scouting Auctions Ending Soon on eBay
A collection I purchased recently has right at 1,000 unique council and district activity patches. My mission this week is to get all those listed! I've already got them scanned in - now I just have to build the listings. When the projects done and I press the launch button I'll share a link.

Patchblanket.com eBay Store Santeeswapper
This week I've started a new consignment which includes some preWWII camp patches from North Carolina. You can see my live auctions and see what I've got. I'm also running some old football usher patches and Explorer conferences.

Today I mailed in my table reservations for the Girl Scout collectors show scheduled later this month in North Carolina. It will mean missing the Atlanta TOR but I really enjoyed this show last year and this time I'm getting a two tables so I can do some swapping. YES I do collect Girl Scout proficiency badges and have a decent collection if I do say so myself!
Yours in Scouting,
