Friday Scouting Hot Finds Newsletter June 17, 2016

SHF_jun_17

I know a few of the readers are Facebook holdouts but let me give you one more reason to get on there. This week John Hoffman shared several pictures of his collection in the Scout Patch Collectors including state strips in multiple color issue and teens era combination ranks. That prompted other serious collectors to talk about their collections and particular pieces. It was great to be a fly on the wall.

Even if it’s missing a loop I still have a lot of love and respect for that 1965 Area 6B Dixie Fellowship patch. I sold one this year in mint condition for over $300 and that one has not cracked $100 with hours to go before it finishes.

The Friday issue of the newsletter probably includes a more than usual dose of international items. It’s tough to fit those items in on the other days when there is so much good BSA stuff popping on eBay. So with the shorter window for this issue I make room for those listings.

If you really want to clear out some inventory run a 66% off sale is what my grandma used to say. Well not exactly but that’s what I’m doing anyways in two of my eBay categories: council activity patches and district activity patches. You can literally get patches for $2 including felt issues for $5 at those prices.
