Best Sale Ever Made

[starbase38]

Good Morning All,

What was the best sale you ever made online?

Mine was an old knife I found at the bottom of a box at auction that I paid 25 cents for and got over $900.00 for online.

Mine would have to be a lot of old silhouette romance novels. Someone gave them to me for free and I got $90 for them online.

LOL, Dee..That is because you are a professional book seller. The last time
I did a lot of that type, I was thrilled to get my $4.99 (first bid) and shipping.
She sells wonderful books at incredible prices, folks!

My best sale was back in tha good ole days a' Bay..(before GREED became their
FIRST name). I bought a jewelry lot..did my usual big spread add.. sold for
$660.00 plus shipping(I think I had like $50.00 in mine and was furious that total
cost was like 3.00-$4.00!! :eek::D

By the way guys, I wasn't trying to brag there. I just wanted to know about your stories. SB

[Lanascountry]

We LOVE brags Star..always love to hear them and no prob!!:D

[borninice]

Ahhh Thanks Lana!! You know you are top notch in my book!! I think it was just a fluke, but I'm not complaining!! They were all by one author. I forgot to put that earlier!!

It's fun to share selling stories! I sure didn't think of it as bragging!! Thanks for starting this thread.

[Lanascountry]

I love them, Dee!! Isn't it cool how we meet everyone out here in the alts!! You know I love it
when we have a new member that just comes In and feels at home..LOL, it makes me feel
so wonderful to hear any old friend is having success! I hope we can keep these cool threads
going! LOL, I see it as encouragement!!!

Hey, Didn't any of you other guys have a really BIG score of a deal? I have others but I don't want to hog the board with more stories about me.


Guys, isn't this type a little small or is it just my computer? I can hardly read it!

OOps, now that type was too big...........I feel like Goldilocks here.

Star..Type is very small..I am bad to BOLD everything, 'cause I can't see. I think our
boss has FABULOUS vision! :D

Does it have to be a sale we made???
Can it be a purchase???

Too bad I'm gonna put the purchase in anyhow........
The best online purchase I ever made was done maybe a little over a month ago (or a little less than)..............
I purchased a cell phone for my husband from one of our very own sellers here. (MJ-TRADING).
My husband absolutely LOVES that phone. He has even tried to drown it, and it just keeps on working.
What makes my husband happy, makes Kat happy !!!
Thanks John for explaining phones to me and having me make the right decision on it for Ron.

[Lanascountry]

LOL, Kat..thas' OK love to talk about great buys, and I hear J&M have great items..:)

Let me think..well I needed a very dressy pant suit for a special event and bought one
for $12.00 that sold for over $275.00..Is that a good one..? It feels like pure luxury and
appears never worn! (even the SLACKS are lined)! The lady sent it with the dry-cleaning
slip and tags and it is a LIZ CLAIBORNE. It is a burgundy (I bought at Christmas time) and it
looks as if it was tailored for me! The lady charged me $10.00 to ship it and I was delighted
to pay it!! :D (the dry cleaning alone of this suit in my small town is OVER $10.00):eek:

My first sale was my second one: I was trying desperately to save my computer, so I bought a new hard drive and Windows Vista Premium. Well...my computer was hellbent on dying anyway. I was able to return the hard drive, but not the software, so I sold it on ebay. I felt good that I was able to get a good portion of my money back and not have my computer-saving efforts be a complete loss! :)

Well, then there was my first one. I sold my wheelchair. Can't tell you how good it was to get free from that thing!
