Fisher Price Toy

Bought: $4.50 Sold: $13.15 Fees: $2.31 Profit: $6.34

I didn't have these as a kid, so I was not sure what it was. It is a Fisher Price Music Box Pocket Radio. Essentially it is a wooden box with a plastic cover and a knob. When you turn the knob, it winds up and plays chimes in the tune of the song. Each music box had a different song. This one was Raindrops Keep falling on my Head. It is a pretty basic concept. It is from 1972 though, so it is vintage. 

When I found this, I saw that they sold relatively well on eBay, and figured I would take a chance on it. It was in good condition for its age, and it still worked. I managed to sell it quickly - it was listed for only 3 days, and got my asking price. I didn't make a huge profit, but there isn't a large profit to be made here. At the end of the day, I'm aware of them, know they can sell, and if I can find them again cheap enough I'll for sure grab them.
