For those of you who attended my last eBay workshop this past Saturday, we had some problems uploading our little Blue Mountain Duck to put it up for sale. I realized after that it was because I listed it on the new buyer identity that I created that day, but I hadn’t confirmed the account by email.
Bottom Line: None of that hard work we did on the title and description was saved, although I thought I kept it as a draft. I still have the photos and plan to list the item this Sunday night, since it will get more traffic then. Unless someone from the group still has the information you wrote for that cute little duck and wants to email it to me, I will have to create a new one. Sorry about that, but it was still a useful practice exercise. So keep your eye on this site and I will give you the auction link.
And speaking of past auctions, if anyone from the summer workshops wondered how our Simpsons’ toys fared on eBay - you naysayers were right. They didn’t sell. But at least we tried.
Thanks for letting me know about the simpsons.
Hi Carol,
How are you?
Don’t know what URI is??
Anyhow, here is the write up our group came up with that day….
“Since the Blue Mountain Pottery factory in Collingwood, Ont. closed in
2004, this lone little duckling is searching for a caring home with other vintage Blue Mountain collectables.
In excellent condition, with the typical green re-flowing glazed swirled look.
A great buy for any collector.”
You are very welcome Bev. I should have tried again on a different day, but I allowed myself to be negative and gave them away. Oh, well.
Hi Irene, Thank you for keeping the description for me. Actually, this was the second time I was going to list the duck. First time it didn’t sell.
I don’t think Saturday afternoon is a good day to post an auction. Think I will wait until this coming Sunday night, first one in October, and try listing it then. I will keep everyone posted.
Carol
p.s. doing fine here, hope you are too.
