Do you remember the first item you ever sold online? Let us know by sending an email to ina@auctionbytes.com and we may publish your story. Today we hear from Ruth DeVincentis, who proved one woman's trash is another woman's treasure.
The first thing I sold on eBay was the most god-awful looking cat I had ever seen! It was about 10" tall and had s.t.r.a.n.g.e looking eyes, as thought in had a hangover in many, many colors. I figured it to be from the sixties, possibly made by a company that thought those eyes were common, or perhaps had never studied any cat eyes. It sold for a rousing $18.96 and I was thrilled, having bought it for fifty cents.
I can no longer sell on eBay due to arthritis, but the fun of it still lingers.

Ps., I love Auction Bytes!
