eBay Scouting Hot Finds Newsletter
Sunday Morning
November 27, 2016
How did you spend your Saturday night?  Whatever you did it was probably a lot more fun then my sorting of hundreds of used zip lock bags according to size so I can reuse them while watching my favorite team get clobbered by their instate rival.  Putting together this issue of the Hot Finds cheered me right up and I hope you will enjoy it more than I did the Palmetto Bowl.  
Vintage Scouting Auctions Live on eBay
 Over the last few days I've added hundreds of patches to my sales albums including one folder filled with 60+ OA 2piece sets that I've got priced at $8 each with free shipping.  That's a pretty good discount over what you see these offered for on eBay.  Throw in the free shipping and that's not a bad price.  I'm just happy to avoid paying some eBay fees and use the Facebook platform to move some  inventory.
Order of the Arrow Auctions Looking Good
I got a big batch of NOAC patches in the last collection I purchased so I've decided to offer many of them up in my ScoutPatchHQ.com store by pricing all the patches from the last 20+ years at $5 each with a little more for staff and jacket patch issues.  This might not be the right time for hitting that niche as the next National Conference isn't until 2018 but it doesn't hurt to try.
Auctions Ending Soon With Bids on eBay
The one thing I haven't figured out if I can sell on eBay just yet is books.  I don't know why but I've almost never offered up a Scouting related book in the category.  I've got an oldie up on consignment this week but that's kinda cheating.  What I really need to do is figure out a way to move the hundreds of books on my shelf to new owners.

Thanks to relisting all of my November unsold auctions last week I've got over 100 live auctions ending tonight on eBay.  Some of the best are included below but I hope you will check out my auctions ending soon and see what I've got on tap.
I finally broke down and took all three Scout uniforms to the alteration shop last week to get the new badges sewn on.  I've had a time with my sewing machine so I kinda gave up and took the easy way out.  Sophia my Girl Scout has probably 20 patches to sew on since transferring to a new council and adding the ones she earned last year.  For Patrick and me it's a little more basic but I am sewing on a Tiger Den Leader patch that I'm very proud of.  Even if right about now I'm not a fan of Tigers or the color orange.
