Because we’re not moving tomorrow or the next day, I tried to swoop in on a new Teresa doll with 12 new outfits but lost. In trying, however, I caused the winner to have to pay a couple more bucks for it. That’s a first. Usually, it’s others costing me money, not me costing them money.

Anyway, I’m keeping a watch on lots. I decided that over time I’d get a lot here and a lot there, then once I had several lots, I’d pick out what I didn’t like and create a lot of my own. These lots are usually on used Barbies like the lot of 15 I got a few months back. I’m currently watching a lot of 22 with clothes and accessories. It’s up to $20 and has a few days to go with one bid on it. It’s a newbie too, so I hope to beat them as long as people don’t go getting all bid-happy on me in the end. I emailed the seller asking how many loose outfits were included and for better pictures. She emailed me back saying there were about 40 outfits. She also attached a zip file with 40 pics, but I can’t unzip it, so he’ll have to do it in the morning.

Tom got his $50 back for the coin holders he never got and found a better deal elsewhere on coin holders.

It takes 20 feedbacks to open a store and he’s got 13. As soon as we get the store, we’ll find out just how much incense we can sell after all, as well as other things. It only costs 2¢ a month to list things in a store. Amelia and Samantha will be listed for sure. I still don’t know if they’ll sell, but we’ll see. Shipping’s going to be a bit high on them even with parcel post. Especially if someone in the east wants them. I was thinking of listing Amelia at $29.99 and Samantha at $89.00. Both have the COAs, but Sam’s without her stand. Haiku’s got it since Ricki was too stupid to send me the stand she said she’d send.

We only listed two things tonight. An old bamboo flute I got in the late 80s and a programming book of his for old computers since so many people seem to like old junk. We started them each at a buck.

If I can ever get the half a dozen or so large lifelike dolls I want, plus a half a dozen or so Ashton dolls, I’d primarily concentrate on Barbie collecting. She may not look very realistic and she may be small, but she’s not very breakable, the middle of her body isn’t usually stuffed, and I definitely prefer rooted hair over wigs.

Tom got spam from a psychic claiming that starting on April 19th, our lives will be just perfect for 72 days. Oh, goody, so we’ll be in business full-time, I’ll lose 30 pounds, we won’t get ripped off selling the house, and we’ll find the perfect land. Yeah, right! These kinds of psychics are quacks just like phone psychics are.

I thought I saw a kid on a dirt bike vandalizing the new houses, but I can’t swear to it. He was by himself and usually, people do these kinds of things with friends. It certainly wouldn’t break my heart if someone did vandalize them to stall people from moving in, so long as I didn’t have to have the blame pinned on me. I can’t believe they’re still vacant as it is!
