Sold: $9.99 Fees: $1.55 Profit: $8.44
One of the recent auction pickups I did had a box of 23 of these Canada Metric Commission pencils in it. It wasn't an item listed in any of the lots, nor shown in any of the photographs. I had no idea I was getting it. I have no idea why someone would have 23 of these pencils. He must have worked for the Commission and just kept them. I didn't want to sell these 23 times, and I'm not sure I'd find 23 interested people. I decided to list them in lots of 3. I sold this first set in under 24 hours, which is a lot faster than I would have guessed. Even if none of the others sell, this is still essentially free money as I had no idea I was even getting these.
