Pokemon Monopoly

Bought: $9.03 Sold: $29.99 Fees: $5.04 Profit: $15.92

Chris's 10% Commission: $1.59

Chris picked this game up recently, and while a bit pricey it tends to be a fast seller. Surprisingly, when I went to count the pieces this box actually had two complete games inside it! Just one box. Thankfully I had an extra box from years ago when I bought an incomplete copy of this game and sold the contents individually. So for $9 I actually ended up with two complete games! When the other one sells, it will be complete profit.

Not making a huge profit one some of these video games, but at least they are selling and I'm making something as opposed to someone just donating them to a thrift store, and my grandma will get some money back.

Bought: $6.77 Sold: $34.99 Fees: $5.61 Profit: $22.61

Chris's 10% Commission: $2.26

Star Wars Tales of the Jedi The Sith War #1-5

Sold: $9.99 Fees: $1.55 Profit: $8.44

Large lot of items

   

Sold: $272.92 Fees: $36.81 Profit: $236.11

All these items came out of a lot of lapel pins I purchased a few weeks ago - although none of them are pins. I have no idea why these were included, but they were part of the reason I bought the lot. I paid $40 for the entire lot, and this sale more than paid for all of that. These were all purchased by the same buyer, along with a number of other things. This lot included a number of new in box Zippo products - a lighter, a measuring tape, and a number of pocket knifes. All of them were branded. As well as a CAA metal car emblem. This was a nice sale to see come through.

Royal Canadian Navy Emblem

Sold: $9.99 Fees: $1.34 Profit: $8.65

This came out of a lot of lapel pins that I purchased at auction last month. It was a weird lot. It had 1,000s of lapel pins along with some new old stock Zippo lighters, a few car decals, and a few patches. Anyways, this paid for 1/4 of the entire lot and I didn't even know it was in there.

The Last Avengers Story #2

For Him Magazine #70 August 2006

Sold: $4.99 Fees: $1.04 Profit: $3.95

It has been a while since one of the magazines sold, but this lot continues to bring me money. 

Scrabble 50th Anniversary

Bought: $7.90 Sold: $40.00 Fees: $0.00 Profit: $32.10

Picked up this new Scrabble 50th anniversary edition game last year, but it's so big that I've had it sitting around forever. I finally got around to looking up its value, and it is only selling for $40 on eBay, so listed it locally and a co-worker saw it on FBM and bought it off me. 

Vintage Sailor Moon Stickers

Sold: $9.99 Fees: $1.55 Profit: $8.44

This came from the large lot of vintage Sailor Moon stuff I purchased at a garage sale at the Great Glebe Garage sale. I've long made back my profit, so this is pure profit. I have 6 more of this exact sticker sheet, so in the end if they all sell I'll make over $50 profit on just this set.
