For the first time since I started this eBaying lark, I’ve lost some items, and their whereabouts are a mystery.
Five bits of sheet music, that came from Kibworth, have been going round and round the eBay carousel for a few weeks and finally sold last week. They included Cliff Richard’s Living Doll and three bits of Black & White Minstrels music. But when I came to put them in their envelopes I could not find them.
They weren’t in any of the boxes in the house, so I have now made two visits to the storage unit, taking the tops off boxes that have been opened and resealed countless times now, and the little buggers won’t show up. Either I’ve tucked them away in a box that I’ve now buried deep or, worst case scenario and frankly I can’t imagine this has happened, they’ve been sent to someone else who didn’t pay for them. Being sheet music they are the thinnest of paper items, making them the easiest to overlook and the hardest to spot. Five punters have been refunded.
Those distractions aside, the last few weeks’ sales have also included the comics that got bought and returned en masse by one rather odd buyer. (You’ll remember I thought he was scamming me, turned out he was just eccentric). I think he realised he’d overpaid for them because, as you’ll see below, most went for less than he paid for them first time round.
The clearout continues, latest thing to be uploaded is a mountain of Look-In comics, a couple of which got snapped up on the first day as you can see.
