My first Ebay experience was most satisfying and I have hundreds of artifacts that I am going to try to auction off now that I am a registered Ebayer and have a PREMIUM ACCOUNT. Plenty of antiques and interesting junk my wife and I have collected over the past 30 years of scavaging just cluttering up the attic. I'll make a zillion! I must say that I like to think of myself as gigantic but you sir are truly $HUGE!! Go little Tigers!

    Good luck. Ebaying is really fun if you are organized and have the time for it. If you know your shit, you can also buy some stuff and resell it for a profit. But it takes a lot of thruput to actually justify your time.

    Definitely something I will do in retirement, along with investing and coaching football.

    Mr.Market,
    My son sold an old radio kit bought at Goodwill for $4 for around $200 on e-bay. I told him I was going to give it back to Goodwill if he didn't list it. It must have been a rare model.

    I told my 17 yr old that last summer he could sell anything in the house on Ebay and keep the proceeds. All he did was watch TV.

    Just a short follow-up to the Princeton Little Tigers Program bidding and the outcome. Skiracer wins the program with a totally huge bid of $11.31
    As much as I value it I would be willing to put it up on the AUCTION BLOCK right here in realtime say until the end of the year or so with the proceeds to go back to the Princeton Little Tigers. The starting bids would have to be above $20 to start. If we get it over $50/$75 bucks I would match that amount with a gift of equal or more value to the high bidder say with a ceiling of what I give back at $100 whicb only limits my total cash outlay but not the bidding for this priceless volume of antiquity. Although I do not like the idea of parting with this recent acquisition I like the idea of propogating more money for the Princeton Little Tigers with this little idea.

    So in the Christmas Spirit the bidding is open until at least the end of January. I'll keep the bids posted in some timely fashion. Tell your friends and relatives about the significance of this auction and that it is not limited to just registered members of this site. I'll start the bidding off at $20. Jeez, Ernie and the kids just got me for $31.31.

    Individual Date Amount

    Skiracer: $12/18 $20.00

    It's very easy to sign up. And you won't get spammed, as I have been since looking at watches on bidz. And the Princeton kids could use some support. And and and...

    I know you're on jury duty, but you really MUST keep up with the more important things in life! Please go back and read the first message in this thread, plus a few after that. This is not about bidding on watches, sweet one. This is serious bidding on a historic document! And you should really seriously consider bidding! Affectionately, River

    I don't have an Ebay account

I am still waiting for the photo of the "huge one" but just to make it a little more interesting I am adding this one of me, just about a year or so home from Southeast Asia, with my hair almost down the middle of my back. Can't actually see it all but it's tied back in a pony tail. That's my cousin Sam just home from the Army in Germany. We were kings back then. Anyone here that wins the bidding can have this picture of me along with the program if they want it. I would gladly send it to them but I think I am going to be the winner anyway. BTW this picture is 40 years old. Those are Striped Bass and Weakfish on that stringer. There's two more photos in this set that would go along with it.
