I was channeling you Steven at an estate sale in digging through a box of stereo wiring and junk to find this tape deck selector and dubbing switch box from the ‘70s. Unfortunately the company that was running the sale was unimpressed by the lowly junk box it came out of and wanted the outrageous price of $10 for it, though they eventually accepted $5 to get rid of me and my ranting. It sold for $40 plus shipping.

Sometimes I just don’t know what will be a hot item. Apparently, a lot of people need parts for Thule brand vehicle roof racks. They were OEM on Land Rovers for a time. I had four of them from a family car recently sold and put them up individually, selling all within a few days of listing with 2 going individually for $13.89 each and 2 bought together for $12.50 each, all plus shipping.

Another item from that car was this OEM trailer hitch. Typical Land Rover, it’s an engineering marvel and easily detachable yet locks securely and is Class III. It sold for $380 with free shipping (cost me $20). In the $600 range new at the dealer, they usually go for more but the locking mechanism did not fully function correctly (well, it is Land Rover).

Military challenge coins have been uncharacteristically slow and I’ve had to send out multiple offers to get them out the door but this consignment was a nice sale at full price, $148 plus shipping. It’s for the 4-star admiral Chief of Staff of the Japanese Maritime Self Defense Force.
