With one day left my GM cans are drawing a bit more interest than my Ford cans as far s 'watcher's and bidding. One of the GM cans is a lead top which makes it more rare but one of my Fords is NOS (new old stock) which is unusual too. We'll see how it ends up tomorrow night. I am thinning out some of my collection, especially duplicates, so my wife won't be stuck with so much if I have more health issues.
Here is a link to one of the auctions if you are curious at all. Just click on 'see other seller's items' to see the cans I have listed. I am NOT asking for bids, just a fun thing to look at and see. I've been into the oil/gas can collecting for over 20 years. It's a fun hobby.

If We Had Only Known! Could Have Bought a Case of That Stuff For Pennies on The Dollar Compared to Current Value!

I Understand About Thinning Out the Stuff! I Really Really Do!

Now I Did Buy R-12 at $4.95 A Can in 1992! Worth about $35.00+ Ea Now. 2 or 3 Cases I Got Somewhere! Should Have Got More! Gotta Have Cold Air in the Old Cars!

Got Some 1970's Air Too in Some Old Wheel & Tire Combo's!

$225.00 That is Incredible Dave!

 

Thank you so much! Quite a bidding war for that can and way beyond what I hoped for. My Fords did well too overall. No complaints at all. It is too bad ebay takes 14% of the winning bid but the national exposure is tough to argue about. I think everyone complains about the fees because they were so much lower in the past, sometimes ebay even waived them. Oh well....It's just a hobby for me. i don't think i could run a business on ebay.
Thanks again!

 

I did buy a re-poseded Corvette one time. I lost money on the deal. I passed on any new deal after my mistake.

I say a Ford Mustang guy should stay with what he knows. I see a few good deals in the current market. I am talking great cars for big values.

My main selling season for auctions starts in Sept and lasts through the winter until I run out of cans. I list a few Buy It Now items during these slower summer months just to keep active. I have actually done quite well this month but not making serious money, just a few dollars here and there. I have no GM or Ford cans to sell yet but do have two Mopar which usually do real well. Here is one of my current listings just to show what I am talking about. I'll have about 100+ cans to sell this year with one major show to attend still in early Sept.

Thank You For The Response!

I Need To Dig Out Some New Stuff to List But I'm Slower Than all Get Out Due To Health Issues So Much of The Time! Also it's Hotter Than Hades Here Recently in My area and My Sea Trains are Like Ovens Except in The Early A.M. That is Where The Majority of My Items Are. Also My Orphan Kitten I Had To Bottle Feed For a Time Kept Me Awake at all Hours! She is on Hard Food Now & a Lot Less Responcibility Here Recently!

I'm Putting Your Store Link in So I Can Keep Tabs on Your Goodies!
