An Archie Pencil Case

Bought: $4.50 Sold: $18.58 Fees: $2.062 Profit: $11.46

I found this Archie pencil case at VV for $4, and I just had to buy it. I couldn't find any on eBay, but it was still a no-brainer. I knew what it was (which makes my life a lot easier), there was no competition on eBay, Archie is collectible, and it had the year on it (1990). So, I had a collectible vintage item, although to be fair its still only a pencil case. I listed it for $20, but took an offer of 14 (because shipping to the states was $6, so he paid an even $20 all in). Overall, it was an easy buy, easy to list, and sold quickly. Robin was rather disappointed, she was hoping it wouldn't sell and that she'd be able to keep it. Maybe the next one I find will be hers.
