Sold: $19.99 Fees: $3.82 Profit: $16.17
This is a joke book from 1915. It was too odd and unique not to try and sell it, but I wasn't sure how anyone would find it. Thankfully someone did.

The All New Purity Cook Book
Sold: $19.99 Fees: $4.84 Profit: $15.15
I'm a bit surprised how quickly some of these cook books are selling. I did price them to sell, but even then I'm still a bit surprised. Not complaining though, all these sales add up.

A Book of Mediterranean Food and Other Writings
Bought: $5.64 Sold: $39.00 Fees: $7.41 Profit: $25.95

Bought: $5.00 Sold: $29.99 Fees: $6.28 Profit: $18.71

Bought: $23.72 Sold: $45.00 Fees: $6.79 Profit: $14.49
Chris's 10% Commission: $1.45
This is the problem with trying to sell large items. This playset often sells for closer to $75, but the shipping on this to the US was $60 due to the size and weight. I've had this for sell for 3 years and finally got an offer that made me some profit, so I accepted it.

A couple years ago Chris picked up a lot of Sony Walkmans at VV. This is a model that I wouldn't normally pick up since not worth enough, but when part of a lot that I've already made a very nice profit on, this is just a nice little extra.

Chris's 10% Commission: $0.36
I wasn't that surprised when this sold on election night, seems like a logical time that someone would be searching for this. What did surprise me was that this sold to someone in the US, not Canada.
