Sold: $9.99 Fees: $2.10 Profit: $7.89

Care Bears Hanging Storage Caddy


Bought: $4.51 Sold: $35.00 Fees: $5.20 Profit: $25.29

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


Bought: $40.55 Sold: $400.00 Fees: $52.05 Profit: $307.40
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


Bought: $3.38 Sold: $19.99 Fees: $4.30 Profit: $12.31
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


Sold: $39.99 Fees: $5.89 Profit: $34.10
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.

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.

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.
