Re: All right, I need some advice on how to maximize my profits.

I have most items listed on defunkd and ebay (as fixed price listings.) I wouldn't do an auction for any items I've listed on defunkd. I've also lowered the prices on most items on defunkd. Almost forgot...I've had a local sports radio show mention me a few times lately. The host is the local sports ...

Re: All right, I need some advice on how to maximize my profits.

Post Office convenience is important...My full-time job is across the street from the post office. The post master knows me by name. 3 stores and 100,000 people...my best store in Maine is in a town of about 20,000. I visit this store at least every other week. I always find something. I should set ...

Re: All right, I need some advice on how to maximize my profits.

I'm not technically selling full-time..as I still have a 9-5 weekday job. However, most of my free time goes into picking, posting and packaging. I've been selling on eBay since about 2004. I got into vintage about 4 years ago. I did an 'about me' section on my blog a few months ago... http ...

Re: HE-Man Masters of Universe Changes Tag?

Looking at some past pics of items I've had...I was reminded of a Three Stooges t-shirt I had from 1991 that was a changes tag. I also have a Kermit The Frog 1991 tee that has a changes tag. I haven't seen anything earlier than 1991. Still hoping for someone to provide evidence that changes was ...

HE-Man Masters of Universe Changes Tag?

I'm guessing this is a vintage MOTU iron-on patch that has been placed on a later Changes shirt. The iron-on is dated 1983. Am I right on this one?

Looks like this is an old posting, but another example of someone taking it upon themselves to destroy pop culture history.

Re: 70s Enjoy Cocaine

Loved these tees. I also like the Pepsi ones...one of my friends had a shirt that had Peyote written in the Pepsi font and logo.

Campus Full Zip Jacket

Picked up this jacket recently. From what I've found the tag is from the 1960's. I thought maybe one of you more familiar with the Campus brand could give me a little more insight. http://img1.sellersourcebook.com/users/123521/p8141847.jpg http://img1.sellersourcebook.com/users/123521/p8141849.jpg

Re: Bleach safely?

I soaked it in oxyclean for a few hours. It removed most of the stain. I'm going to have it soak another round. Might do the trick

Bleach safely?

I've read the article on defunkd about cleaning vintage shirts....excellent information.

I have two questions that I didn't see addressed regarding bleach.

Is it safe to use bleach on a 100% nylon jersey?
&
Is it safe to use bleach on an iron-on graphic tee?
