Sunday Scouting Hot Finds Newsletter October 29, 2017
After taking a hot shower and getting the camping gear it’s time for me to unpack the Uhaul that came back from the Midwest. It sat in my driveway all weekend because I haven’t had a minute to spare since getting off the road Thursday late.
My unpacking job won’t be so daunting this afternoon because I labeled each box before packing it on the truck. So for example there are more than 50 containers with some being banker boxes and others clear totes. I’ve got a cheat sheet that basically tells me what’s in each. So that saves me time on this end sorting it out into what needs immediate attention and what can stay in the garage for a while.
The trick will now be trying to recoup my $ as quickly as possible since my investment in this collection was significant. In just a few weeks I’ll be attending the St. Louis TOR so part of my idea is to prep some stuff to put out for sale at that show too.
I’ve got 150 live auctions ending tonight and completely new listings locked and loaded to launch in the PM. If I can pull a few items from the new collection and get them on there that would be a real bonus.

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....
