Selling lots of Broadway stuff...

Time to purge a bit... Selling a lot of Broadway posters (mostly signed BC/EFA ones), magnets, T-shirts, and other assorted merch.

Everything is on eBay, everything is listed for a penny. No best offers. No buy it nows. Pure auction.

Wow, someone really wants that Sunset Boulevard magnet! I just upped the take for you by quite a bit but unfortunately I'm not the high bidder.

I buy a magnet for every show I see, but when I saw this one they were permanently out of stock. Looks like the quest will continue!

Yikes. Yeah, people get a bit crazy on there. Last time I sold magnets, someone put $500 bids on like 8 magnets in the last few minutes, just to make sure they weren't outbid. Which seems to be a dangerous game...

Sorry, but thanks for the boost.

Just a heads up, I'm keeping all auctions live and selling them for whatever the final amount is next week (even if it is only a penny). So, no need to ask about best offers, what I'd accept for something, etc., it's all between you and eBay. Some things will go cheap, some will become ridiculous, but that's out of my hands...

Well, that had a $100 reserve price, so there was no chance of it going for less.

Only two others listings have reserves: If/Then at $75 and Curious Incident at $30.

I think nearly every Broadway window card has a current bid and will sell, some for ridiculously low prices, and they will all start selling tomorrow starting around this time (in five-minute increments all evening). So no second chances, buy my stuff while you still can!!

Im suprised the matilda window card isn't going for more. If it is that low tomorrow, I might swoop in with a high bid haha.

Only 4 watchers, too, so it could be yours! Good luck!

Can you combine shipping...and where can one get the Wicked XV souvenir program program? Any Wicked 15th anniversary playbill?

I combine shipping when I can, for sure. But if you buy a flat poster and a shirt, those would have to be two shipments just based on how they need to be shipped to arrive in good shape.

I'm so bummed...I got outbid for the only item I wanted for my son.    On the very first day.  Sigh.

Just got to go back and put in a higher bid!

Oh, I already surpassed by high selling point.   Good for you though, Haterobics, making some bang!

I'm still preparing myself for the onslaught of shipping that is about to become my life for the next few days. I'll celebrate after that, heh.

Seven dollars for shipping a tshirt seems a bit high since there is no packing involved (like with glass) and you can just put it in a usps plastic mailer.  I understand about the other shipping prices, though.

eBay sets the shipping prices, but what I usually do is pack it, weigh it, get the actually shipping price and send a new invoice with that amount. I even refund people who overpay. I'm not planning to make any $$$ on shipping.

In just a few more hours, that's all the time you got...

A few more hours, until my magnets are all bought!

Good luck!

And kdogg, Sunset is up to $41?!? Crazy.

Final bump, as the final 58 items are going to start selling in about 2 hours...

No theme to day three. It's everything that wasn't a poster or magnet. So, if you need your Heathers T-shirt, Next to Normal pill box, Great Comet mug, or Andrew Lloyd Webber-signed School of Rock Gramercy program, tonight's your night!

And, for those playing along at home, the Sunset Blvd magnet went for $52!

S/o to the person who swiped the AMERICAN PSYCHO Business Card/USB at the last possible second. 

Hrmph.

Ah well - C'est la vie!

Congrats on so many very successful auctions, haterobics!

Man I really wanted that South Pacific magnet, but someone snagged it at the last second. Hope you made your investment back OP this was fun!

Beyond the purging, the real lesson was "stop accumulating stuff!"... but I don't really remember what I paid for most of this stuff to begin with, so hard to tell if I made or lost money? But the old money is long gone, whereas this new cash will all drop at once!

Also, a lot of it was for BC/EFA fund-raisers, so even if I made less back than I paid out, the money was all a donation and the poster or whatever was "free" anyway? Still not a fan of selling one-of-a-kind signed posters in flat mailers to ship across the country, so will be watching to see if those all arrive intact. *fingers crossed*

Still waiting for all the payments to trickle in to see what the total haul will be, after eBay and PayPal get their cut, but all of you bidders drove all 151 auctions up to nearly $3200.

Glad I don't do this often.... it was a bit much. Finally caught up with packing all the boxes for the night. And more to do tomorrow... once more winners pay up. Ack.

haterobics, congratulations on a nice haul!  Surprising to me that the magnets sold for so much, and that the signed window cards generally didn't sell for more.  Are people not collecting them anymore?

I have 100+ magnets that I should probably put up for sale!

Don't know, but there was a lot of last-minute sniping for magnets. The last sale I did was ALL magnets, and that got even crazier.

I'm not sure on the window cards. They did OK, but typically for less than I paid, considering DEH and If/Then were $200 donations, etc. If I kept them up as $200 Buy It Nows, they might eventually sell, but I rather just have it as more of a messy, random garage sale with everything going at once.
