Just thought I would share my Ebay story. I am in the process of Ebay-ing some of my late husband's collections. I listed some things on the site and the high bidder was a lady down the street. Big world/small world. She could have walked over to pick it up. And, her grown children were former 1st graders of mine. Makes me wonder where the other stuff is going????

I have had that happen only two times, met some interesting people.

One was a beer tray that I bought for 25 cents at neighbors yard sale, sold for $25 to guy in the next town. He came to pick it up and brought a photo album of his collection of beer trays!
