We are back doing shows again and spent most of this week selling at the American Lake VA Hospital in Lakewood, WA. We did well with the jewelry especially our selection of men's sterling silver rings as well as our Harvey canes. We also brought out some of the Native American made pottery that we purchased in the Four-corners area of New Mexico. The pottery is Navajo made and comes with their certificates of authenticity. We will try to bring a few smaller pottery items to the college shows that we do later this week.
We have been busy adding more items to our eBay store as well as continuing to run a free shipping special for our post and dangle miniature earrings. We are currently relisting the pairs that did not sell during the first auctions but appeared popular in the searches. Other pairs that did not show much traffic have been moved to the Buy It Now category in the store inventory. We are offering a Best Offer on these for folks who want to get a small discount, especially if they are purchasing multiple pairs. (We have the settings set for a minimum price but if you are planning on purchasing at least 5 pairs, we can negotiate an even better deal.)
We are hoping to relist the dangle earrings this week as well as any duplicate pairs of some of the earrings that sold in the first auction. We are running this special to clear our stock. Some earrings are already sold out while we still have multiple pairs for some of the other designs.
We are also in the process of getting out some fun, miniature Christmas earrings including several Santa designs, a cute Christmas stocking, reindeer and more. We have a few pair of Halloween designs that we are making a priority to list this week. If they don't sell in a 7-day auction, we will move them to our booth in South Tacoma Antiques and Collectibles south of Tacoma, WA.
