9. I hate when sellers accomodate early birds!
Boo! Hiss!

I think I need to get a space in an antique mall again. There's one within walking distance of my new digs. It's a cool building, with an authentic old original working soda parlor inside. One of the stools is memorialized, because John F. Kennedy sat there on a campaign tour years ago.

Anyway, if I had a space, I could sell some of this stuff that has value under $20. Maybe. On the other hand, if I just sold 10 items a day on eBay that made $5 profit, that would be a nice egg. Of course I would have to list 20 to sell 10, probably.

I realized last night that I could have bought more of the vintage menswear and sold it on eBay or taken it to a resale shop and made some $ off it. Really top quality stuff, it was. But alas, I was on foot.

Meanwhile, this McCoy planter is calling my name. It wants to sit on my shelf with my other green pottery pieces.

I'd like to pick Vermont. Is there fall color yet? Still in the 90s here today.
