AuctionBytes.com November 18, 2001
Welcome to new subscribers who saw us on the Boston television program Chronicle!
AuctionBytes-Update is published weekly (we also have a daily Newsflash newsletter). You can also find cool tools and resources on the Web site. We show you how to successfully sell online on auction sites and storefronts. We have many writers who contribute their expertise and knowledge, and we write about collectibles as well. Check out our rogue's gallery at http://www.auctionbytes.com/Write_For_Us/WriterBios/writerbios.html .
We received letters from local readers who saw the program, which featured the topic of yard-saling! Although it is mid-November in the Boston area, there were still a fair number of yard sales yesterday. Our cover is blown - we were spotted at a few by people who said, "I saw you on TV - any good buys here?!"
Lots of people were running around getting ready for Turkey day. I am totally unprepared for the holidays - Christmas is a mere 5 weeks away. I will be making my annual day-after-Thanksgiving trip to the mall at 7am Friday to do my part to help the economy. I think I'll finish up the rest of my shopping online. As well as shopping on auction sites, there are some great stores in various "Storefronts" - you can find a list of Storefronts here: http://www.auctionbytes.com/stores/stores.html .
Happy Thanksgiving from David, Maggie and me!
