WHAT YOU'LL FIND ME SELLING
If you have been watching the items I been offering for sale for the past 7 years, you will see that I don't really specialize in anything, but I am very partial to vintage 1940's thru 1960's appliances and housewares and have quite a customer following for these types of items.
Fortunately I live in an area that is a treasure chest of estate and garage sales that are loaded with great vintage items, so I spend most of my Saturdays on the road scouring the sales for items that I think you all will like.
I personally attempt to test everything I sell on eBay, but since most of the items offered are fairly old, they are always sold "AS IS" like the old Electrolux vacuum from the early 50's in the photo below or the old Sunbeam Mixmaster below it (these are actual items I have sold here on eBay).


I sell quite a few vintage books as these are also quite plentiful at the estate sales and local auctions.
Additionally I am an eBay registered Trading Assistant and can sell relatively high end items for others on a consignment basis (I recently sold a collection of 6 antique autos for one Pittsburgh collector and a large collection of Royal Doulton figurines for another).
WHAT I AM UP TO
About 6 years ago I joined the ranks of the unemployed (for the first time in my life at the age of 51) when the company I had worked for for the previous 7 years closed their doors on one days notice putting 85 people on the street with 2 weeks severence and a shallow "We're Sorry!". It was great that I already had an established part time business here on eBay that I quickly geared up to full time and within 2 months reached the Powerseller level and it has just continued to grow. It has made the difference in my family being able to maintain our previous lifestyle even in the face of the unemployment market. Of course it helps that I have a pension coming in too as I am also retired from a 20 year career in the US Navy that I retired from 18 years ago (but that pension could never provide the lifestyle we were used to and my eBay business now provides about 1/2 of my income). eBay is now my full time profession and I never bothered looking for a job to work for someone else who would only be willing to pay me what it would cost to replace me.
So stop by my store below, pour yourself a cup of coffee and browse awhile (you may even find yourself a vintage coffee pot while there or a good book to read). I'm sure you will find something you just have to have, and if not today, keep checking back as I am always adding to my diverse inventory.
