eBay My World: welshsinger( 1182)

My husband, Dave, and I are both Welshsinger. We are both confirmed ebayers. I am a former College teacher, now full-time fiction writer, and Dave is a computer software writer. We live out in the country, on about 25 acres with dogs, roses, grass

I sell books (lots of books--all kinds), dolls, clothing, particularly high-end women's suits, etc., collectibles (less recently), and classical CDs. I will sell anything I think is good enough to sell. I won't sell Dave.

I buy dolls--china heads (civil war era) and most recently EffanBee's Patsy dolls, books--lots of books, clothes--socks, etc., occasionally clocks. Dave buys St. Louis World's Fair items and railroad related items, such as American Flyer trains, track, cars, as well as china, slides of various long-ago trains and inter-urban trains. He is very focused.

Dave collects railroad items and model trains. He and I both collect St. Louis World's Fair items. I collect Patsy dolls, half-dolls, clocks, first-edition books, white stoneware pitchers. I find that if I have six of one item, it's a collection. Dave and I go to many local auctions where we are liable to find anything.

English

Gardening--roses, cottage garden; Mary Todd Lincoln. Of course, trains and railroad related items.

Housekeeping by Marilynne Robinson is a perennial favorite. Richard Powers' Three Men on Their Way to a Dance, also John Katz's books, anything by Alice Munro, Ann Tyler, Sue Miller, and Verlyn Klinkenborg--he writes wonderful books about rural life full of rich detail and wisdom.

Ride with the Devil, The Music Box, with Laurel and Hardy, Gettysburg.
