Check out the great items I have listed on ebay!  Signed posters from Bridges of Madison County, Les Miserables, kiss of the spider woman, Proof & The Snow Geese, and Damn Yankees from Encores plus unsigned posters and poster lots.  All posters will come with a few extra unsigned posters because I have no more room! :)  

Signed cds from Wicked and Frozen, Gypsy with Patti, Spelling Bee, Cabaret, 9 to 5, Memphis and signed playbills and programs from Company, Hedwig, Baby It's You, White Christmas, Pirate Queen, Mauritius, How to Succeed with Matthew Broderick, Guy and Dolls with Lauren Graham, plus lots more one of a kind items!!!!  All items were either obtained by myself personally or bought through Broadway Cares fundraising so authenticity is guaranteed.  Also willing to make trades for anything listed.

Why would you put your TodayTix referal code on there for $10, when: (A) Anyone who wants to could just punch it in for free since you posted a picture of it, and (B), Anyone who wants a code has the pick of the litter from all the hundreds of other free codes posted on this site?

The code is not for sale. It is listed there for anyone to use.  When I listed it for a penny, people would always bid on it which is why I put that price.  If anyone were to pay for it, I would immediately refund the transaction. Thank you for your concern.

Your prices are high, especially considering you bought it all at the flea market.

Most of these items were not bought at the flea market.  I think the prices are extremely reasonable, especially considering what other sellers ask for on ebay.  If you're interested in something, PM me with an offer and maybe we can work something out.

Connecting it to the flea market is probably where people are thinking, "Ooh, a bargain..." and then they click and, not so much.

 

One example, signed Bridges window cards were $15 at the flea market.

"Most of these items were not bought at the flea market."

Then your thread title is deceiving.

Yeah, if you're going to frame it as something to replicate the experience of the Flea Market, your proceeds should go to Broadway Cares and your code shouldn't even be listed. Nice try.

I just thought it was a cute title to advertise that I have some hard to find items at reasonable rates. If most of these items were being sold at the flea market, they would have been asking a lot more for them.    I don't think anything listed, anyone is going to be able to find for less anywhere else.  I'm open to accepting offers and trades. If you're interested, great. If not, move along.

Except for the part where they were less and the part where the money at the flea market went to charity.

 

Examples: Snow Globes at the flea market were $20, not $35.

Signed Bridges posters were $15 at the flea market, not $175.

Most window cards were $5-15 unsigned at the flea market.

You didn't prove my statement, which you quoted, wrong.

What percentage of the purchase price are you donating to BC/EFA?

[Broadway_Boy]

Posted: 10/15/15 at 1:16pm

20%

None of these listings are donating any portion to Broadway Cares.

You said if your items were available at the flea market, they would have gone for more, and I mentioned actual prices of things from the flea market that were significantly cheaper than you are selling them for... so, isn't that proving you wrong?

 

Also, if you are donating a percentage from your listing to charity, you actually set that up on your listings, and it would be displayed there publicly.

 

Here is an example of a listing donating to charity. You get a ribbon on your listing, information on the charity, etc: http://www.ebay.com/itm/HAMILTON-MUSICAL-CAST-SIGNED-POSTER-LIN-MANUEL-MIRANDA-GROFF-BROADWAY-15-SIGS-/371464109570?hash=item567cfc7e02:g:Jj8AAOSwT5tWHpwF

Yeah, unless the auction is set up for charity, assume the seller will just bag the profits. EBay has a system. I've used it before myself; it is NOT hard.
