Hi there! We would like to tell you a little about ourselves. We are Christie & John, and we live in the beautiful mountains of western NC with son Jonathan, 11 year old pekingnese mix Muffin & kitty cats Matilda (Tilley) & Tom (which is actually a female) lol. Most people that know me will tell you my dog - IS MY BABY!
We are newly weds, being married February 2, 2008. We have been a member of ebay since April 05. This started out being just Christie, buying a few items here and there. But I loved it so much I started selling. Then Christie met John, who also buys, sells & deals (lol). And well, you know the rest, we are now us (lol).
John suffered a heart attack January 16th, 2008. Very unexpected, and at a very young age. The doctor's said at least 20 years to early. He had to have a stent put in, and seems to be doing much better. But we have lots of medical expense and an enormous monthly medication bill. We have no health insurance, so monies from ebay sales will go towards medical expenses, and we greatly appreciate all of our customers and their support. Thank you.
We have dabbled with different items, but we just can't find one particular thing we like selling. We go out shopping & searching ALOT (lol). We live in an area close to several upscale neighborhoods, so we have the opportunity to run across lots of great items, some very expensive items. So when we find a great deal, we like to share it on ebay. If you are looking for a particular item - contact us with description and price you are willing to pay. We can help you look. Like we said, we are out ALOT! We really do enjoy it.
Most of the items I list will be designer clothes & shoes, with the occasional purse or accessory. I also list the items for John, which could be anything from small collectibles to hoosier cabinets. John deals with alot of antiques - so I never really know what he will have me list. CHECK BACK OFTEN!!!
We list items in Auction Format & Buy It Now. We are always willing to accept best offers. If the offers are REASONABLE - we will accept. But please don't waste our time or yours with ridiculous offers. If we have an item listed in Auction Format and you would like to Buy It Now - contact us with your offer. If it is reasonable and we are willing to accept - we will go in and add a Buy It Now option. We can only do this if the item has no bids and more than 12 hours left.
ALSO, PLEASE NOTE: MOST OF OUR ITEMS ARE PURCHASED SECOND HAND FOR RESALE. MAY OR MAY NOT COME FROM SMOKING HOME. THANK YOU.
The most important part of our lives is our relationship with the Lord Jesus Christ. We know without Jesus in our lives, we would never make it. We give all thanks and praise to the Lord for blessing us - many times over. If our lives can be just a small light in the world to others and somehow help them - IT'S WORTH IT!!! Whether we succeed at anything else or not. We love our Lord and we owe everything to him.
Christie is a HUGE Bon Jovi fan. Been a fan 20+ years. I am always looking on ebay to buy anything Bon Jovi. Particulary jewelry, shirts, and of course CONCERT TICKETS! I love all of their songs, but I guess my favorites would be Have A Nice Day, Never Say Goodbye & IT'S MY LIFE! I love anything Bon Jovi, so if you are a seller look me up.
We like to help charities. Especially charities for children. We ride every opportunity possible in toy runs, etc. for children. Christie works the annual TOYS FOR TOTS every year, and always tries to donate to several childrens charities at Christmas. We support animal rescues and we always donate to the RELAY FOR LIFE - AMERICAN CANCER SOCIETY. Christie lost a grandfather & both grandmothers, as well as several aunts, uncles and cousins to cancer. We also support the AMERICAN DIABETES ASSOCIATION. My dad, John and my best friend Valerie are all diabetic as well as several other friends. I have lost 2 cousins and a close friend to diabetes. SO ALL THESE CHARITIES ARE REALLY IMPORTANT TO US.
Anyways, we just wanted to share a little about ourselves... WE THANK YOU FOR STOPPING BY AND TAKING THE TIME TO READ OUR ABOUT ME PAGE.
GOD BLESS & HAVE A NICE DAY!
Christie & John |
