Readying for the Season

The shopping season for the upcoming holidays is fast approaching.

We have a plan - list as much as we can in the Ebay store so we can reduce our inventory load.

There will be many things going on as auctions.

And they will be starting off really low - some of them will start at .99 cents.

We need to clear out much of what we have on hand.

Because part of our plan includes a move - hopefully within a year.

It will be time to begin thinking about retirement.

Not completely of course - we will still be here - but on a smaller scale with smaller inventory to fit in a smaller house.

Downsizing.

Hopefully we have something you are interested in in the coming months.

It would really help us a lot if you could use it or give it a new home.

Thanks for stopping by and put us on your watch list - we may have just what you need!

Some New Inventory

We have been adding a different kind of inventory to our Ebay store.

Some used automotive parts have become available, and we will be listing them over the next few weeks.

So far we have added some hard to find 1991 Volvo 940 parts.

A couple of them sold right off.

Hoping to draw in some new customers by adding some different items to our mix.

If you are looking for any of those volvo parts, please let us know and we will see what we still have on hand.

 Thanks for stopping by!

Still Posting and Listing

Time has flown - I cant' believe my last post was on Jan. 22.

An update is needed for sure.

As stated in my previous posts, income taxes were a big job that required a big chunk of my time.

They are now all done, and what a relief it is.

We are now very busy loading up our ebay store with lots of stuff.

They are offering free listing of auction items only until 2/21.

That is an offer that is just too good to be true.

We have been able to list about fifteen new things each day, and I will continue to get as many on as I can during this time.

Hope you will stop by to see what deals we have!

Three Day Listing Sale

Ebay is giving us a good deal this week.

From today, 12/6, through Thursday, 12/8,  we can list our auctions for free.

And buy-it-now can be added for free too.

They usually give us a one day notice for a one day sale.

But three days makes it a bit easier.

Plus, more can get listed.

The only drawback - the auctions are for 1,3, or 5 days only.

No seven day auctions that we do.

But, free is free, which is a good thing.

So don't forget to check out our listings, perhaps there is something there for someone on your list.

Enjoy!

Another Sale

Another auction listing sale on ebay means it is time to hurry again.

Hurry to get things ready.

Hurry to get them listed.

And hurry to get them online.

'Cause it is only for a day.

We took the bait and did the hurrying.

Over 60 new listings are going up tonight in our store.

Some things that didn't sell will get relisted - at a lower price.

We are trying to move our inventory, and our customers will get the good deals.

Even if it means our items sell below cost.

We did list a few more of the sterling silver coins.

As always, good luck with the auctions, and enjoy!

Lots of Deals

Another listing sale on ebay means lots of things got listed by many sellers.

We took advantage of the sale and also listed lots.

And most of our items were started at $9.99 auctions.

That is a whole bunch of good deals that we have available on ebay.

Check out our listings in our ebay store.

Maybe there will be something there that is just what you have been looking for.

And if not, then stay tuned, we have lots more that will be going on in the next couple of weeks.

Enjoy!

Thank You My Customers!

It has been a very good week over here at KML's Corner.

And I have my great customers to thank for that.

I am glad that we have what they are looking for - and even happier when they let me know how pleased they are with their purchases.

Keep your eyes on my auction and buy it now listings - we are adding lots of new inventory and it just might be what you are looking for or need.

A great big thank you to, my customers - you are the best!

Calendar Zodiac Silver Medal

 

We have a most unique piece going up for auction next week.

It is a solid sterling silver round that is made by the Whittnauer Mint.

This large medal features the year 1973 in calendar form - six months on one side and the other six on the other side.

It also has each Zodiac sign for each month.

It is part of a set that includes 6 smaller sterling silver medals with "Winter" being the theme for them.

And as if this set wasn't special enough, we also have an identical one in bronze.

Two very rare sets that would make a great gift for an astrology collector as well as those who collect silver.

1975 Franklin Mint Bicentennial Medal

We have a beautiful piece of sterling silver up on auction this week.

It is a piece that was made by the Franklin Mint in 1975.

It is titled: Bicentennial Medal, and it features the faces of 30 Great Americans on the front of it.

The back has the beginning sentence of the Constitution of the United States.

This is a hefty piece of solid sterling silver - weighing 2000 grains, or 4.12 troy ounces.

Gilroy Roberts created this stunning piece, and the faces appear beautifully frosted against the mirrored background.

You can check out the listing, here.

It's a beauty and good luck to the bidders!

Franklin Mint Medals of the American Revolution

We just listed a beautiful set of Franklin Mint medals on Ebay this evening.

This set was minted in 1976 and there are 50 rounds that depict scenes from the American Revolution.

The title of the set is: The Medallic History of the American Revolution.

Each round is 32 mm and is made of solid Sterling Silver.

There are over 21 ounces of silver in this set.

Housed in a wood display case, this limited edition set is very rare - I haven't been able to locate another one like it.

The auction listing is here, and it will run for seven days.

There is a low reserve - pretty much at melt value as of this post.

Don't miss it - they are hard to come by and silver is a great investment!

Travel Overnight Shaving Cases

Some of our new inventory includes travel cases or kits for men.

These overnight cases store shaving and grooming items for travelling.

Some of them are leather, some are synthetic leather, and others are canvas.

We have been listing them on ebay and there are a couple of varieties in the store also.

The Dopp Kits are the most popular and are our best sellers.

They are made of leather and have a built-in frame that allows them to stand wide open when they are unzipped.

They make a great gift for any man.

Summer's End

Per the calendar, summer ends on the 23rd of this month.

But with the start of school and the cooler weather moving in, most in the US consider the Labor Day weekend the official end of summer.

And next comes the shopping season for the holidays.

And putting more listings in the store, both on the website, and ebay, is our goal these next couple of months.

Along with our listings of clothes, shoes, collectibles, and household items, we will be putting some silver rounds on too.

More of the American Indians collection will be listed also.

Hopefully we will have something for everyone - so keep your eyes peeled.

 Thanks for stopping by!

American Indian Leaders Medallions

 

We have begun to list on Ebay a most interesting, quite rare collection of silver rounds.

The collection is called: American Indian Leaders Medallions.

It was minted by the Osborne Mint in 1979-1980.

There are 48 rounds that are made of Sterling Silver.

They are one ounce each.

They feature many of the famous Indian leaders from tribes across the US.

Only 5000 of these sets were produced.

We are listing them separately over the next few days, so if anyone is interested in the whole lot, they need to let me know so I can end the listings already on Ebay.

I would rather have kept them all together, but sadly they are valued more separately.

If you have any questions, don't hesitate to ask - just leave a comment or go through the contact us link on the store website.

Towle Crystal Bottle Stoppers

 

A rare find - a set of three crystal bottle stoppers made by Towle.

These beauties are made in Austria of full lead crystal.

Each one is a different design that measures about 5 3/4 inches.

They are the newest addition to the store and you can find out more about them here.

Enjoy!

Readying for the Holiday Season

It seems a bit early to be thinking about the upcoming holiday season, after all, it is only August.

But when it comes to being online and selling merchandise, the earlier one begins to think about it, the better.

It takes time to get the items ready, photo them, and then actually get them on the website.

It takes time for the search engines to crawl the new listings.

So, by the end of summer, I usually have dived into the "season".

Not sure how things will be this year with the economy as it is, but good deals are always in demand.

And we offer quite a few of those!

Crystal Pen Holder

 

This beautiful crystal pen holder is made in France.

It is made by Cristal d'Arques and is 24% lead crystal.

The holder is beautifully cut to reflect the light.

Fitted with a gold colored holder, the gold colored pen slips in perfectly.

This set is a classic that adds a special touch to any desk.

You can find the store listing here.

Thanks and enjoy!

Ralph Lauren Tablecloth

 

A beautiful dark green tablecloth by Ralph Lauren.

It is a round shape that measures 70 Inches.

Blown Glass Paperweight

 

 A new piece of art glass has been added to the inventory.

It's a round paperweight made of blown glass.

There is a large bubble in the center that is surrounded by fine swirls of white.

A one of a kind piece of art.

Jim Daly Cards and Envelopes

 

We listed a pretty set of cards and envelopes in the store today.

It is boxed set of 12 cards by Pine Ridge Art.

They feature the artwork of Jim Daly, and his painting titled: The Conversation.

They are elegantly designed and the cards have a short bio of the artist on the back.

They make a great gift and are one of kind.

You can find the listing for them here.

Thanks for stopping by!
