My math may be fricked but 688/3 = 229 so $230/month. $2760/year. It’s gonna cost 20K so at this rate you’ll be enjoying the Far East in no time (7.5 years) Get er done!
Also antique I really enjoy this thread. My uncle passed away in 2017 and I had a really good relationship with him. Great man all around. Anyway, he knew how to game eBay and had some really interesting flips on there. Seeing this is bringing back fond memories of my late uncle. Thank you for that.

My sister's had about 20 of the vintage 1960s/70s full size dolls w original boxes. Sold them as a lot at our estate sale last year to a lady for $275 I think. So you did very well on the minis.

I actually texted the winner of the dolls, asking her is there something super rare I missed. Why did they sell for so much?
She said she buys them fixes them up and sells them and she said she’ll probably sell these for about $20-$30 apiece

I’m sure it’s been said many times in here but thanks for keeping this going. I enjoy catching up every so often.

Now that I have some capital, it’s getting easy. I’ll be done in less than a year, I think.

I had to laugh, I have the same Russian submarine clock, on my office wall. I love it.
Igot it about 30 years ago, I think for $50. It was brand new, never used. I think they discontined that submarine. Ha I think it was advertised in a magazine.
Any idea what its worth ?

There are variants in the clock. Ones like mine sell for $125-$250. There are some that there’s a small difference (maybe the repops), sell for around $75-$100

Seems like you have a knack for seeing things that have value (most of the time). How much time do have invested in this, between buying and listing and selling? I enjoy following this thread.

I work shift work, so I basically shop every other weekend. So I probably shop 5-10 hours every other week.
As far as listing, the eBay app is so easy, I can list an item in about 5 mins.
As far as shipping, it takes me 5-10 mins to box something up. USPS picks it up on my front door, or I drop it off if I’m working nights, I pass in front of a post office. So there’s zero time in shipping.
I do on an occasion, have to run to buy a specialty box.

It seems like the Barley and Malone jerseys would go for a little bit more...
If you ever happen to come across an original nintendo would you please give me first dibs to buy it?

I hope you make at least $100 an hr to do this.

Those D&D books look interesting…

AD&D books and modules are some of the rarest items I’ve looked for over the last 20 years. I can probably count on one hand how many times I’ve found AD&D items over the years. Some of the original books from the 70’s bring BIG money.

Another update in the op. May have found a pretty rare piece of pottery.

I might be interested in discussing them.
