Well I like to say I'm always trying new things in this hobby! So as it was Wednesday of this week when I filmed a 1 hour 45 minute live stream of me unboxing a dozen+ collections on air. The full video is on my website in case you want to put it on in the background and see what came in. Some of these collections have been sitting on the shelf since September.
My process in the warehouse has cycles or maybe I should call it seasons. So when I buy collections I typically hold them on a shelf until I am ready to let the dam break and all that new inventory flood the warehouse. This means a monster sorting process to get all items grouped with similar pieces. From there we create boxes of each type to run through the scanning and listing process. It never gets old as I inevitably find some jewels in among all these micro collections.
I have 171 live auctions on eBay mostly on interesting event and district patches from the 1950s and 1960s. A few of these I might should have kept for my own collection but I've go so many stored away already.
This weekend I'll be volunteering at the Winter Camp held at Camp Barstow. For the first time in a long time I'm teaching a merit badge and no it's not Scouting Heritage. The forecast calls for some low temps so wish me luck!
