Ummmm Jack...Hello...It's July and we're in California. Forcast for 107 this Wednesday. You're supposed to be selling ice chests, air conditioners, swamp coolers and beer coolers. Take those camping heaters and list them. Block all foreign countries except Japan. Launch those auctions at 2 AM so they'll start and end in prime time in Tokyo. Then get under the air conditioner and enjoy a cold one.

These cheapos won't cut loose with get this,,,,,,air conditioners for $49.00......10k btu's' and down!!!!! I got 8 of them here, burned out listing them on e bay....just want to get RID of them....those heaters,,,,,hahahah, I was being sarcastic, in the WINTER time they will ALL end up with a MICHIGAN address.....

God I want ALL this STUFF OUT of this warehouse! My new idea is Rent enclosed space to owners of Exotic,,Hot rods, and Classic cars. 6 cars in this space at $300.00 per month....Easy street.....As soon as I do (clear it out) I have customers ready and waiting,,Got them from craigslist...these cars only move a couple/few of times a year for some car show.

MOST of this junk has set here for FIVE years!!!! making me NOTHING. I'll NEVER list it on e aby as dreamed....

Like my tag line says,,,,

Jack - how big is your warehouse and do you have expansion capabilities? Turn it into an indoor card/collectibles/etc show. There is one like that two days a week east of LA. You should check it out. It runs on Wednesday and Saturday. I'd love to someday find some commercial warehouse space in other areas and do the same thing. He probably has about 150 spaces X $30 a day X 8 days a month = 36K a month and all he has to do is cover insurance, rent, and power and work two days a week.

No, I'm saying -- I'm merely -- I'm saying what I'm saying. I don't know why I'm always having people say, are you trying to say -- you know what you can do if you want to know what I'm saying is listen to what I'm saying. What I'm saying is what I said ...

Bought a few box lots....

One had framed pieces, of which one was a signed Wallace Nutting photo. Two more that appear to be the same style, but no signatures.

A big box of hatpins, but only the pin part (very long and very sharp). One company sold them to a jeweler, a VERY long time ago, and the jeweler never removed them from the box. (But it cost $90 with $2 shipping originally.)

A tin of pieces used to make ribbons and medals. I think they're brass with some silverplated. Not sure what they mean, but they're neat.

A Baccarat perfume bottle, some porcelain, a pair of early 1900's leather boots (shoes) that were never worn. (I'd wear them, but they're so narrow!)

The loss of the day was a box with a hand thrown, salt-glazed crock, hand applied handles and a blue bird decoration. It had a hairline crack, but I didn't care. I bid it up to $160 (People thought we were bidding on the old (junk) baskets.) lol! I wish I kept bidding....
