Ahoalan Nachpikin Lodge 558 2010 Jamboree Blue Border

  I have a few of our blue border trader flaps for trade. I've attached a scan of it if you would like to know what it looks like. I would like to trade for other Jamboree flaps either from 2005 or 2010. I would also trade them for other Ahoalan Nachpikin flaps that I do not have already. Make...Read More

Boy Scout Band Trumpet Gift to Interesting Scout Executive

  Well, I have to admit I don't know where to put this story but I will put it here for all of you. I have uncovered a sweet trumpet and sweet story of the original owner. I am still in the midst of putting the whole story together and would generally ask for help from anyone that can provide...Read More

Step Right Up and Get Your Instant Patch Business Right Here

Probably a year ago I did a post on this site regarding eBay fee changes that I thought would make it near impossible for sellers to continue to run very large stores on eBay. In that post I mentioned eBay seller Kindanic (John Wallace) because for some time he has had the largest eBay store in the Boy Scout category...Read More

Grandpa Had One Heck of a Trophy Banner

I had the trophy banner in the Hot Finds and if you saw it there you might be curious to see how it ended up. Turns out the seller answered some questions from bidders and the banner belonged to his grandfather who was apparently a professional Scouter. I don't know much about khaki and red 1/2 strips but it looks...Read More

Insignia Bling Bling

The headliner in this group - the Merit Medal is solid gold. No really it is! The seller claims he could have turned in the 25 grams of 10k gold for $400. I'm glad (and so is he) that instead he offered it up on eBay because it was one of the best auctions that collectors have seen in the...Read More

The Best Handbooks I Never Saw

In order to make the cut auctions have to have at least 1 bid to get placed in the Hot Finds. For that reason sometimes really good items don't get spotlighted in the newsletter because they don't get bids until the very end. In researching closed auctions I stumbled upon these rare Scout handbooks that were sold by TSPA. I...Read More

How Do We Water the Patch Bug?

  I have a question for the group but first a shout out is due. I received in the mail this week a draft copy of the SR-5 Pocket Flaps Guide being written by Hank Birdsong. Many of you who are from the Carolinas are already aware that Hank has created neat color booklets for issues from Tsali Lodge 134...Read More

You Gotta Love These Mixed Lots!

Anyone who reads the Hot Finds newsletter already knows that I love to put the mixed lots in there. For this blog I've got five super selling auctions that sold recently for a minimum of $500. You might be surprised just how high some of these went. These mixed lots came from a variety of sellers but when you click...Read More

Uniforms Worth Saluting

I had the Sea Scout jumpers listed in a recent Hot Finds newsletter and I figured they would make a great topic for a blog post considering its been nearly five months since I've posted anything on the site. I have some help now at Hot Finds HQ so my time should be freed up a little more now to...Read More

Awesome Sea Scout Insignia Drawing 4 Figures on eBay

Rare 1916-1924 Sea Scout Khaki Jumper with Patches Its been way too long since I posted on Patchblanket so I'm going to ask the experts to tell us what this patch is? The jumper is over $2,000+ on eBay right now and I figure it will go higher.    

Boy Scout Category Analysis – 2010 Jamboree Spike

We’ve all seen the big spike in the Boy Scout category after the wave of 2010 Jamboree patches hit the auction boards. With this blog post I attempt to answer the question – How Big Was It? Taken as a total the 8 weeks after the Jamboree saw $1.59 million dollars in sales in the category. I can’t break down...Read More

The Phenomenon that was the Patch of the Day

Ok so here is an easy trivia question. What was the most in demand set from the 2010 National Jamboree? Well we all know the answer to that question. But do you have any idea how many of these sets sold or just how high were bidders willing to go to bring it home? I've done some elementary research and...Read More
