I went to a Wichita antique mall after visiting a friend in the hospital. I found a Coleman Lantern paperweight I thought was interesting for only $6. I bought it and the clerk said that the person whose space I bought from had just stocked their space from a local estate sale including this piece.

I haven't sold anything on ebay for a year or more...last time the fees totaled over 20%..I usually sell pieces that are pretty desirable to collectors and can sell at a specialty live auction for 20% and usually realize 20% more for the item than on ebay. This was a good enough buy however and I had just received a message that there was no listing fee, so I listed it...It closed last night at $174.50..the final value fee was 10%..I can live with that..
