Harry Potter Scene It

Bought: $4.51 Sold: $19.99 Fees: $3.89 Profit: $11.59

There are apparently some Scene It games that are worth flipping, but most aren't. When I found this one, I looked it up and it seemed worth it, but it sat for almost 2 years, despite me lowering the price numerous times. It finally sold today thankfully! Not a huge profit by any means, but it was one of my earlier buys and it's a big box gone from storage.

WoW RPG Book

Bought: $5.87 Sold: $19.99 Fees: $3.24 Profit: $10.88

I picked this up a long time ago along with a number of other WoW RPG books. When I was doing an inventory of my storage and organising it back in the spring before my trip to Moncton, I discovered that the listing for this book had disappeared. I finally found time to list it again in the summer, and it finally sold. I have no idea how long the listing was down for, but I'm glad I realised and relisted it. My biggest worry is that listings disappear without me knowing and that I have items in storage that are not listed and will just sit forever.

Three Vampirella Comics

Sale Price: $99.99 Fees: $11.47 Profit: $88.52

The same buyer who purchased the large purchase of Eerie and Creepy comics messaged me asking if I had anything else similar I was going to list. I told him that the only series similar was Vampirella. He asked me to let him know when I was going to list them, and so I sent him the list and the pictures ahead of time and gave him first choice. He asked for these three, so I made a listing and it was an easy $100 sale. With this sale I am under $4,000 in the red on this auction so far.

Current profit off the comic auction: -$.3,934.56

Lacoste Shirt

Bought: $14.68 Sold: $20.00 Fees: $3.20 Profit: $2.12

Another shirt from my failed attempt at looking into flipping clothes. I paid way too much for this (which is partly why it is hard to flip clothes as so much is overpriced), but I'm just glad it finally sold and I made my money back.
