Tuesday Scouting Hot Finds Newsletter June 18, 2024
Well my rookie Whatnot show was….a success! I define that as people showed up and I didn’t have any technical glitches that knocked me off stride. I typically had a dozen people or more in the stream and by the end over 200 had popped in and out. There were 1/2 dozen buyers and I think they all got good deals. So now I need your feedback!?
I have described this Whatnot idea as a summer experiment. So in order to continue the run I need to schedule my next show ASAP. It was suggested to me today that I should try a show on Sunday as a compromise for working people and those otherwise busy at 4 PM Eastern. So here is a question and you are welcome to email me back if you like. Would you prefer my next show be at 8 PM Eastern this coming Sunday or at 4 PM Eastern on Monday?
For my next show I believe I am going to try and do the honest unboxing/auction idea that appealed to me when this idea was first germinating. In other words I film a live unboxing in the show and instantly offer the items for sale. So their is a surprise factor plus the gamification of the unboxing. I can pick maybe 3 collections that have some diversity of location and era to make things interesting.
On eBay I have 222 live auctions running including my last big group of neckerchiefs.

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....
