I would say my favorite thing about the museum was that there was a lot of text on the walls to tell the story. So you didn't have to flip through a book or go hunting for the key dates and events in the history of the councils and camps. It was typed up in letter size frames hanging on...Read More

Already the move has paid dividends. I found a patch that someone offered me $650 for (was MIA) and I've been able to put my hands on some things to take for patch trading this weekend at Camp Cherokee for the SR7B Conclave. I still have some shelving to build next week and a whole lot of sorting to do....Read More

This is a picture from inside the new warehouse space when we got started yesterday. These boxes were things I had at the Charlotte TOR. By the end of the week I hope the shelving is up and all these boxes have a new home vertical on a shelf and off the floor. That might be a small miracle but...Read More

I already have all the shelving but some of it is the metal stuff you find at Home Depot and some is a home made wooden design. I'm a little worried that it's going to fit. Like Matt Delk sometimes says it's time to play Jenga. The thing that is going to be truly eye-opening is finding all the...Read More

One thing that I'll do next week is give those of you that have actually purchased from my store a 24 hour notice head start. I think it's fair to reward customers with "dibs" on the new listings. I have a special customer list that I can build from people who have already made a purchase from www.ScoutPatchHQ.com. I got...Read More

I got the keys to the office so to speak Monday and unloaded my uHaul from the TOR into the new warehouse. They still have some finishing touches before I formally move in but next week is going to be when I get everything under one roof. Tonight my daughter is presenting her Silver Award project to a Girl Scout...Read More

Several people unloaded entire collections to dealers looking to cash out. Larry Lane and Ben Mabee told me they found more needs at this show than any in recent memory. There was a group of guys holding a late night Friday meeting on insignia led by Ron Oslin til the wee hours. We now have 3 shows in North Carolina...Read More

One of the things I'm blowing out are Scout books. I've got merit badge pamphlets for .25 cents, other Scout books 2/$1 and the better ones like Handbooks and OA books $1 each. Did I mention I really don't want to take all this to the new warehouse! Oh and 2/$1 on Scout mugs as well. The other thing that...Read More

(910) 671-4919 [leave a message] email to santeeswapper@yahoo.comI started collecting Boy Scout memorabilia when I was inducted into Santee Lodge 116, Order of the Arrow at Camp Coker in the summer of 1986. All the guys of ISWA chapter in Elk campsite seemed to be trading and since my dad sent me to camp with a small bag of patches, I jumped in and never looked back....
