Vintage Strobie Ghost

Bought: $4.51 Sold: $34.99 Fees: $5.16 Profit: $25.32

Found this in a hanging baggie at VV last week. Not a huge ROI, but it sold within a week, so that made it worthwhile. 

The Terminator 2029 Video Game

Bought: $4.51 Sold: $39.99 Fees: $5.33 Profit: $30.15
Chris's 10% Commission: $3.02

This is a vintage computer game.

Sold five issues to the same buyer. Love sales like this. 

Grandfather's Estate: Magazine

Sold: $4.99 Fees: $1.63 Profit: $3.36
My 50% Commission: $1.68

Not making a huge profit of this single issue, but all the sales add up. 


Bluenose II Lunenburg Nova Scotia Lapel Pin

Sold: $4.99 Fees: $0.83 Profit: $4.16

For some reason Bluenose pins always sell well. 

Lexis Nexis Lapel Pin

Sold: $4.99 Fees: $0.83 Profit: $4.16
Chris's 10% Commission: $0.42

Lexis Nexis is a software company that makes legal software - I use it every day. This is a really old logo, but has a great vintage look to it. It sold to a law school librarian.
