eBay My World: franko6656( 157)

As you can see in the photograph, we are the F and B of F and B Enterprises LLC...Along with our little Shetland Sheepdog Ginger. We are a new enterprise, but want to build our business into a full time affair that will allow me to go at it full time

We sell many different kinds of items. Mainly right now we are concentrating on fine knives. About 90% of our knives are from the CASE line of fine knives, we also handle a few BOKER, QUEEN, ROBESON/MASTERCRAFT, SCHATT & MORGAN, GERMAN EYE occasionally we throw in a few others like HEN & ROOSTER, OPINEL and Schrade. We also sell a few OFFICIALLY SANCTIONED LOGO ZIPPO lighters. We have offered fishing items, used carving and woodworking tools, Instructional Books, antique tools and other items we pick up here an there. There is never a dull moment when I work full time and try to build the business. My lovely wife Barbara helps, but it keeps us both hopping into the late hours many evenings, and especially on Monday and Tuesdays when we ship most of our items.

We buy various items as well as sell. We buy shipping supplies, office supplies, books, office machinery, film, camera supplies, ceramic outdoor and garden animals and fine indoor decor items.

We collect Ceramic Roosters, Proof coin sets, candle holders, various large crosses, old tools, and old books.

My favorite books are HISTORY, RELIGION, CIVIL WAR, FIRST AND SECOND WORLD WAR, KOREA AND VIET NAM. My wife reads JAN KARONS series AT HOME IN MITFORD

LONESOME DOVE, HIGH NOON (original version with Gary Cooper)SAVING PRIVATE RYAN, BAND OF BROTHERS, GETTYSBURG, GODS AND GENERALS, UNFORGIVEN, OPEN RANGE, BATTLE OF MIDWAY and TORA! TORA! TORA!

When we began contemplating retirement a couple of years ago, we knew we needed something that would let me slow down and get away from so much physical labor. My wife is medically disabled, so it would also have to fit into what she would be able to help with. That is where we came up with the idea of an eBay business. I baought Skip McGraths book about selling on eBay, and was impressed with it and so i bought his COMPLETE EBAY MARKETING SYSTEM. It has been a great help in getting us well grounded and not trying to get ahead of ourselves. The process of getting our business license and getting everything set up legally was a real education in itself, but we got it done finally. We started thinking about this business two years ago, but it was not until APRIL 1, 2007 that we actually launched F and B Enterprises LLC. That means we will be celebrating our first anniversary in a few days, and we are proud to say that we have lasted this long and have great hopes and dreams for ourselves
