Sunday Scouting Hot Finds Newsletter March 27, 2016
Saturday my project was stripping my office and packing away 5 years worth of accumulation. I need to take down the shelving so it doesn’t get sold with the house and we hope to stick a sign in the yard at the end of the week. The good news was I found a $1,000 OA flap while packing that I kinda had forgotten about.
This weekend is the finale for the Wetassa 227 R1 and the other OA patches that I promoted in the PDF Catalog a few days ago. This is an OA collection that was donated to a troop and the Scoutmaster is auctioning off the patches to raise money for the unit. Since the R1 is over $3000 as I write this I think they are going to get some new tents!
My Girl Scout troop is starting to work on God & Country with help from a pastor at our church. I grew up in a troop sponsored by an Air Force Base unit so it wasn’t an award I earned as a youth. I noticed there are some religious medals doing well on eBay this weekend.
My big sale this weekend on eBay is OA conclave patches. I have over 275 issues marked down 35% for the rest of the day. So far some folks have gone in and scooped up the $5 patches but nobody has really bitten on the more expensive pieces.

I 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....
