It's the busiest time of year for anyone selling things, not necessarily big things like building cranes, but more the smaller than a bread box type things that you keep around the house - I guess some nuclear weapons come smaller than a bread box, and that's not what I'm talking about - so I guess its the smaller-than-a-bread-box-type-things-for-people-who-don't-want-nuclear-weapons-around-the-house season for selling things. This is the category of customer I look for, which is not to say that my customers are saner than someone who wants a nuclear weapon around their house. These are record collectors who are my customers - a curmudgeonly bunch for sure. And they've been keeping me busy since I came back from the southwest U.S. with my haul of records. (I count myself as my own worst customer as my walls are keeping rows of LP's and 45's company while I pine for some un-neurotic clarity as to what I will keep and what I will sell). So, while like Santa I have been making lists and checking them twice, I have not been able to get to writing out the details for my blog of top selling records on eBay. Here are my lists for the past five weeks, without commentary, and most of the details have long slipped from the mind of eBay (check Popsike in a few months for specifics, eventually they'll show up there):
