Over $2000

I went over $2000 the other day. The second 1000 was a lot easier and was helped by the sale of what was pretty much the cream of the collection. A lot of heat for the Metallica box set.The biggest item so far is still listed . It is original comic art by the great Alex Ross. No bids yet , but there is only one of these in the world so I hope that someone will want it.Kinda.

The First Thousand Is The Hardest.....

It took almost amonth to reach a thousand dollars in sales, but now I am almost at $2000 in the space of 10 days. Rolling out the big items really helped. The Kingdom come figures sold as a Buy It Now for $330.00. I am shocked that the Wild Things figures haven't gone ,yet. They are probably the most beautiful figures ever produced and are truly all ages. As always , you can see all the eBay action by searching gr8gnius.

Finally Above $1000 in Sales!!!

I just pased $100 in sales the other day. It would have been sooner , but I had to give a couple refunds. The feeling of hopelessness that all of this work engenders strikes me at leats once a day. Alll of these sales don't go toward buying anything or getting me out of debt ,just keeping me out of jail and my wife's credit in good shape. I don't know if I have mentioned this before , but our oldest daughter starts college next year at a cost of almost $48,000. That is something I alsways ahve to kkep in mind, that this is just round 1 of a 7 year fight. I hope I win on points.

Update

I have been listing ,listing listsing and I am not making any great leaps ahead. I wish that this was my problem and my wife was left out of it. I would just take the tax lien and pay it off bit by bit ,but she shouldn't have her credit thrown into the crapper because of my stupidity. The stress is getting to me. I sent items to the wrong places last week and ruined some guy's birthday present for his brother. The packages didn't even look alike. It looks like I will have just over $2000 from all of the selling. I am going to push on the reallly premium stuff I have left and see if I can make a big splash.
