Forgot to mention that we passed $2,000 in sales with the auction of the Cigarette Case + Margot Livesey story. That went for $33.77, putting our grand total at the end of Tuesday at $2,023.96 (for 64 items we purchased for $84.48; that’s a 2295% Significance Premium). Once again: Thank You to our writers, and our buyers.
And as long as I’m here, the following inquiry came in to the Significant Objects eBay account.
Hello,
I am writing in response to your duck vase posting.I have a question, which is this: If I were to bid on your Duck Vase, and if I were to win it, do you know if it will prove to be the kind of thing I’ll feel saddled with for the rest of my life? I just moved and after lovingly bubble-wrapping and hauling objects such as the Ass-on-Legs sculpture, the Pikachu Ears, and the Jumble Sale Board Game with missing pawns hand-crafted by my grandma Ruby, I am somewhat concerned about my capacity to distinguish collectibles from crap. So with you Duck Vase, will I be saddling myself with Collectible or Crap?
Thank you.
Needless to say, all of our objects are Significant. The true risk of regret is in failing to acquire one.
The Duck Vase auction ends today.
