Creepy #25
Sold: $10.00 Fees: $0.00 Profit: $10.00
Sold this issue of Creepy to a local guy who messages me once a month to meet up and buy a few things. His collection is always eclectic, but I get to sell stuff without fees, so it works for me.

Super Castlevania IV Box and Manual
Sold: $49.99 Fees: $4.30 Profit: $45.69
Another video game box from the video game lot. It is a shame that so many of these didn't actually come with the video games, but they still sold quite well. I've almost made a $800 profit on this video game lot, and I still haven't sold everything yet.
Commissioned Sale: McDonald's Pin
Sale Price: $14.99 Fees: $3.28 Profit: $11.71
My 30% Commission: $3.51
This is the oddest McDonald's pin I had to sell. It is the hamburglar studying a math textbook? Why would McDonald's make this? The pins were typically worn by employees, not given out to customers, so why would an employee ever need a pin with the hamburglar doing math?

Sold: $39.99 Fees: $5.36 Profit: $34.63

This is a 3D puzzle by Ravensburger of the Taj Mahal. Picked this up at a VV in Cornwall. Not a huge profit, but I'll take $20.

McDonald's Happy Meal Toy
Bought: $0.00 Sold: $4.99 Fees: $0.83 Profit: $4.16
This is a vintage Happy Meal Toy. It's a sponge... I'm not sure who thought that giving children sponges as toys was a good idea. Anyways, it came from the large lot of McDonald's items I picked up at VV last year. It finally sold, so I guess someone really wanted a sponge...

Two 1967 Pan American Games Pins
Sold: $29.98 Fees: $3.72 Profit: $26.26
At an auction recently (the auction the video game lot came from) I picked up a lot of pins. I can't say no to pins. These two pins are the first to sell from the lot. They are two pins from the 1967 Pan American games which were held in Winnipeg. They are pins for two of the countries involved - Jamaica and; Trinidad and Tobago. I wasn't sure how to price these, and considering they sold overnight I probably could have charged more, but these two pins almost paid for the entire lot so I'm happy.
