I Can’t Believe This Sold… Red Rhinestone Button Lot

A few years ago I found these buttons in the bottom of an auction box.

I thought they were unique, and knew they would sell for something..

I didn’t anticipate there would be a bidding war with 3 people.

When the auction closed they sold for 56.00!  Not bad for finding something

them in the bottom of a box!   What’s the best thing you’ve found in the bottom of a box?

Something to Sell on eBay: Soap

1.  Wrisley Saddle Club Shaving Soap sold by theeastmanclub for $102.00

Here’s what the seller says about it:

Up For Auction is a beautiful vintage bowl of Wrisley Saddle Club tallow shaving soap.

Wrisley Saddle Club is re-branded Yardley tallow shaving soap. Wrisley and Yardley tallow soaps are prized for their rich, lubricating lather and unparalleled performance. Aside form the imprint and the bowl design the two soaps are the same in composition and performance.  Soap has never been used and is in mint condition. The Wrisley logo imprint is clearly visible.  The bowl has a few minor scratches and chips but is in great condition.  Yardley and Wrisley Saddle Club are becoming harder to find every day. A unused bowl in such condition is especially rare.
