Care Bears Hanging Storage Caddy
I picked this up back in 2016, and it finally sold. I had it up for $50, and it's had a number of watchers, but someone finally made an offer of $35 and I was glad to get the sale. I'm a bit shocked this took so long to sell, it's super unique and Care Bears have a pretty good following.
Lot of 5,000 Legend of the Five Rings CGC Cards
Chris's 50% Commission: $153.70
This was a huge lot of 5,000 cards for a card game called Legen of the Five Rings. This card game is now out of print, but people still play it. Chris found this at a thrift store, and we split the cost (it was $40 each), and split the profits. Chris picked these up in 2018, and then it took us a while to sort all the cards and make a list, but it was listed about a year ago, and it finally sold. A great sale.

Flareon Pokemon Card
Sold: $44.99 Fees: $7.36 Profit: $37.63
I still can't believe how valuable some of my childhood Pokemon cards are. I'm very glad I finally found these and can make some profit off of them.
Pass the Pigs Travel Size Game
Chris's 10% Commission: $1.23
When Chris asked me if I wanted him to buy this when he was at VV I thought it sold for more. In any event, it sold within a few weeks, so a quick sale is always nice.
McDonald's Pokemon Activity Pack
Bought: $4.51 Sold: $15.00 Fees: $3.60 Profit: $6.89
This is a Pokemon coloring pad from McDonald's, where they would hand these out to kids to color while at the restaurant. I thought it was pretty unique so picked it up back in early 2019, but it sat for two years with no interest so when I got an offer I decided to take it. Not a huge profit by any means, but at least it sold and it's out of my inventory.
Funko Pop #69 Geoffrey As Batman
Chris's 10% Commission: $3.41
This is the last one of these that I had, so glad to see it sell. I picked up five of these when they were relesaed. This was released after Toys R Us closed in the US, so it was essentially a Canadian exclusive. It took a while for all five to sell, but I ended up doubling my investment so I'm pretty happy with that.
Flipsiders Rock Tour
Bought: $6.77 Sold: $29.99 Fees: $6.43 Profit: $16.79
I've sold a few of these in the past. It is a game that is made to resemble a cassette tape, and the board folds out and the dice are wheels in the tape. I actually got this along with another one in a hanging baggie at VV, so this sale covered the cost of both. When the next one sells, it will be pure profit.

Color the Sky Swatch
Bought: $2.25 Sold: $39.99 Fees: $5.63 Profit: $32.11
Chris's 10% Commission: $3.21
It has been a while since I sold a Swatch, but also nice to see one sell.
RPG Game and Booklet
Sold: $290.00 Fees: $37.94 Profit: $252.06
This a vintage RPG game, and an RPG booklet, that I purchaed at two auctions a few years ago. They've sat a while, but with that sale price I don't mind sitting on things for a couple years. Nice to see these finally sell.
Micronauts #59
Bought: $1.46 Sold: $4.99 Fees: $1.51 Profit: $2.02
Chris's 10% Commission: $0.20
I don't usually pick up comics at thrift stores, since most aren't worth it. This one isn't all that valuable, but it still turned $1.50 into $5, and it was an easy sale.

Grandfather's Estate: Stuffed Animal
Sold: $34.99 Fees: $6.03 Profit: 28.96
My 50% Commission: $14.48
My grandparents were avid cruisers (back when that was still a thing people did), and this is a stuffed penguin from a 2002 Anartica cruise they did.
SPI Strategy & Tactics #80 Game Magazine
Sold: $49.99 Fees: $7.99 Profit: $42.00
This was part of a lot of these Strategy & Tactics magazines I purchased at auction a few years ago. Each of these magazines came with an original punch-and-play game, and thankfully the entire lot of magazines I purchased had all the games and they were all unpunched. These are slow sellers, but they are brining in a very nice return on my investment.

AMPEX AG-350 AG-355 Recorder Reproducer Operation and Maintenance Manual
Sold: $9.99 Fees: $1.65 Profit: $8.34
This is a manual for an old recording machine that was released in the 1960's. This was part of a lot of ephemera that I purchased a number of years ago. Just goes to show that anything will sell eventually, you just need to wait for the right buyer.
