eBay My World: joycealicesattic2( 520)

I love to shop store sales,second hand stores,auctions,& garage sales to find bargains and pass them on. Occaasionally there will be times nothing is listed--don't dispair--keep me Bookmarked, items will be there.

I sell a potpourri of items. Depends what good quality new, like new or gently used merchandise I find— leather purses: Coach, Liz Claiborne, Nine West, Tignanello, Aurielle. Real 10 kt gold, 10K gold, 14 kt gold, 14 k gold jewelry (whichever term you use) Beautiful, quality china such as Old Country Rose china made by Royal Albert, other Royal Albert china, Royal Doulton china. Clothing (I don’t sell gently used clothing): Sag Habor, Alfred Dunner, Crazy Horse, & yes, even some good quality items, now called antiques, from my own attic.

Good quality merchandise that I would like to have, but others can benefit more from buying.

English

Gardening, talking with my kids, shopping, reading--espically positive feedback and finding someone has really enjoyed a purchase.

Never went to movies, seldom do now-- I'm still amazed at the high prices! Didn't own a TV until the l980's. I have a VCR, the kids are still trying to explain what a DVD is and how they work. Still can't understand why something that only shows on 3/4 of the screen is supposed to be better than a VCR film that fills the whole screen.

The name stems from my childhood.During my grade & high school yrs my sisters & I slept,studied & basically lived in the attic of a small farm house. No heat, no plumbing—you might say our family was poor. Still,we were well off—we had a roof over our heads that didn’t leak after we stuffed the holes around the chimney with rags. We had healthy young legs to travel downstairs for the use of modern conveniences. We had clothing sent from relatives,remade by our mother,& then passed down among us. We had shoes-sometimes even two pairs.Over 10 percent of the selling price of an item purchased from me goes to Portland Rescue Mission, a non-profit organization in Portland,OR that provides clothes, food & shelter to homeless men, women & children. Because helping provide basic food, shelter and clothing to people in my home town is more important than % profit margin.Since I love to shop-you receive a good deal while I pursue,as my time, health,& funds permit what,I guess, really is a hobby.

There is a debate between my son, a new university Business School graduate, and I, a graduate of The Attic, regarding what constitutes a true profit in life.

Money order, PayPal.

I ship daily if possible, package items well, and securely place them in a nice box or gift bag. I recycle packaging--so please don't be offended if you peel off your label to find old addresses hidden with black marker pen. This savings allows me to afford PayPal.

I would prefer not to have items reappear. Sometimes they are so nice I really hate to sell them, but one can only keep so much. Please give them to someone you love or care about instead. If you really must, e-mail me and we'll see what can be worked out. I'm honest and take the best photos I can, so please don't leave negative feedback if you are unhappy--contact me instead.

e-bay provides contact info at the top right of every item I list, and at the top of this page.

Now I'm clearing out my jewelry box, closets,& attic, so more listings will be coming-only items in great condition or new will be listed. Please keep me in your Bookmarks--I go interesting places & find interesting items to pass on at low prices, but I can't list items every week.
