About Me

Fabulous to Funky Finds

Hello!  I have been selling Antiques and Collectibles in Montgomery, Alabama for 17 years and have been selling on eBay for 10 years.

I got started on eBay first as a Buyer (don't we all?).  Since I was already an Antiques Dealer, I found myself hitting a lot of Estate Sales and finding items that would not sell in Montgomery, AL for the prices I was sure they would bring in other parts of the country.  My first eBay sale was a Dept. 56 Snow Village house, from the first set of six, that I found on the last day of an Atlanta, GA Estate Sale.  I got the house complete with the original box for only $10.00.  I brought it home and listed it on eBay without a photo (didn't have a digital camera, didn't understand how to use one) and it sold for over $300.00.  Needless to say, I was hooked.  With the proceeds, I bought my first digital camera and started listing auctions.  Since then, I have made several home runs (thanks Tim, Mr. Customer Service).  Of course, I make the occasional bad purchase, but eBay has really been a great source of extra income to me.  Now, I hope to expand my horizons and build my business through my store.

I have recently been named a Rock Star Promoter by the Fabulous Janelle Elms, eBay instructor extraordinaire!  Can hardly wait for her new site to go live.  It is fabulous to say the very least.

I have a love for anything old (to me that is before 1960 - so that would also include - ME!)  I travel across the Southeast to bring my loves to my customers on eBay and in my Antiques Stall at the Montgomery Antiques Gallery here in my hometown.

If you are looking for that something special, be sure to check out my eBay store.  If you don't find what you are looking for, please let me know so that I can be on the lookout for it at the next Estate Sale or Flea Market I attend.
