Huge LAST CHANCE Sale On eBay This Week!

Since I haven't done a clean out of old, unsold inventory in quite a while, I decided to take advantage of the 7 DAYS (!!) of free auction listings on eBay to have a LAST CHANCE sale. Can you believe I had stuff in my stores that I originally listed back in 2009? Crazy! Time flies when you're having fun and all that, apparently... ;)

These auctions are literally the last chance you online folks will have at these items - and I started them all nice and cheap, most of them at $4.95. And there is some GREAT stuff too, definitely a few things that fall into the "unsold mysteries" category!

Before I show you some of the items that are part of the sale, I did list a few new goodies that I want to make sure you see:






What do you all think of my new white bead board photo background, by the way? It's not perfect - the board was salvaged from my parent's bathroom re-do, so there wasn't a piece large enough for the backdrop, hence the dark gaps... but I think I kind of like it, though I still have some lighting issues to work out...

Ok, on to the sale items... I think I pulled out about 150 things, so of course there is no way I could show them all here - if you want to see everything, just click on over to check it all out! Here are just a few of the biggest "unsold mysteries" - things that I really love, and have NO CLUE why they haven't sold. Hopefully they will this time! ::fingers crossed::

New goodness at auction on eBay this week!

This week I tackled a long procrastinated project - sorting through the hundreds of vintage photos I've stockpiled over the last several months. I needed to go through them all and pick out which ones I wanted to list individually in my vintage photo shop on Etsy. Talk about a job... I did it though - so look for some new stuff to be added to that much neglected little shop of mine soon!

I did pull out a few photos to list at auction on eBay:




And I put all the rest that didn't make the cut for Etsy into one big lot of 400 photos... If you collect or use old pictures in your artwork or decorating, here is your chance to grab a bunch at a great price!


By the way, I have a board on Pinterest where I am collecting fun ways to decorate with old photos - titled, quite obviously, Vintage Photo Displays. No points for creativity there... ;) If you are on Pinterest, click over to my main page and hit the Follow button, and I'll do the same for you!

I listed a few other goodies at auction as well - my stock of auction worthy items is pretty low right now, as usual for this time of year. But, I managed to get a few up, and I hit a few sales yesterday (yay!) so I should be listing some more this week - stay tuned!

New On eBay - 1970's Heavy Metal Magazines


Here is a find that I had to almost literally pry out of my boyfriend Will's greedy fingers - a big lot of 1970's Heavy Metal magazines. Billed as "The Adult Illustrated Fantasy Magazine" it is pretty risque - so is the movie that was made in 1981, based on the magazines. If you have ever lived with a person of the male persuasion, or if you actually are a person of the male persuasion, I would imagine you have seen it... ;)




 I much prefer the South Park Heavy Metal episode:


 
Included in the lot I found is the much coveted #1 issue - SCORE!!:

New goodness at auction on eBay this week!

I didn't get a whole lot listed at auction this week - but, I put up two items that I think I can safely call my favorite finds of the year so far:



Animal Plackers - from American Greetings... Now, are those not the weirdest - but coolest - things you have seen in a while? 2 foot tall paper dead animal head decorations designed for kids parties? They must not have been very popular, because I could find ZERO mention of them anywhere on the web. I saw them and I immediately though of the current taxidermy chic trend - these fit right in, only in a less creepy, more kitsch-tastic way... I was SO tempted to keep one, but made myself list them both!

I listed a few other goodies also:

New goodness at auction on eBay this week!

First of all, HAPPY NEW YEAR everyone! I cannot believe that it is 2012 already - it seems like just yesterday I was listening to Art Bell on the radio talking about the end of the Mayan calendar in 2012 and thinking it was AGES away. Not anymore! Time really does fly when you are having fun, apparently!

eBay celebrated the end of 2011 with a whopping 3 day free auction listing fee sale, and I did the best I could to list as much as possible. Of course I don't feel like I have listed enough - and I've come to accept that I never will. ;)

Here are a few of my favorites from this week's batch of goodness:








There's lots more - click on over to check out the rest! :)

New goodness at auction on eBay this week!

Hi everyone, I hope you all had a GREAT holiday weekend - I know we sure did! I was feeling a bit under the weather yesterday, but still managed to have some fun, see some family, and watch A Christmas Story (best Christmas movie EVER!). :)

Last week I managed to list a few things at auction - not a whole lot, because I have been working more hours at my part time job lately (it has turned into almost a full time job, actually!), so working on my own stuff is only happening sporadically when I have the time...






I am proud of myself for finally tackling the stack of vintage playing cards that I have been procrastinating on for a long time - counting all those cards to make sure the decks are complete is a bit of a drag, to say the least... I have some really cool ones though so I am happy to have them listed, and excited to see how they do!






That's not all of the cards - I really had quite a lot of them! - so if you want to see the rest just click on over to check them all out. :)
