I put my first item up for bid on e-bay on Wednesday and now I have 3 items going.
Our family went to a minor league baseball game back in April. They gave out bobblehead dolls to the first 1500 or 2000 fans. We got 4 of them. I gave one to a co-worker whose son really liked that player. Then a couple of weeks ago, her husband saw a newspaper article about the bobbleheads selling on e-bay for hundreds of dollars. She told me about it and I checked it out. Turns out, they are selling for about $400 each. Of course, I came home and found the bobbleheads and immediately listed one for sale. I put the 2nd one up for auction the next day. I'm going to hold the 3rd one for a little bit to see what happens.
I'm also selling 2 tickets to an Aerosmith/Motley Crue concert that I won through a contest that I didn't know I entered. It turns out that I registered on a NJ Transit website several years ago and when they have a contest, they select from registered users. The seats I won are great seats and have a face value of $125 each. I would have loved to have seen Aerosmith, but the date just wasn't convenient for us.
I've been meaning to list some other items on e-bay and these things have definitely got me hooked.
