SubPet715 -> RE: Have you ever pawned anything? (9/3/2010 3:17:42 PM)

Regardless of the job I may have I spend a good deal of my free time looking for things to sell that I own. I'm a nerd so I own a bevy of nerdly items that many people just pay a great deal for. My work money is for work, my side business is selling and buying things to sell to other people, business is good.
For example they had an episode of pawn stars in which they featured a "Fortress Maximus" figure that sells for an insane amount in tact. I had 2 of them, one in tact, one slightly used, and I treated it like a chop shop operation. I took him apart slowly but surely and sold him off piece by piece, the arm, his gun, the main chest ramp, all sold on ebay for a minimum of 10 dollars. Total profit from that venture was about 800 dollars.
I also sell trading cards, vs, pokemon, magic cards things like that.
To get an idea of how much those sell for, just go to ebay and check out "Black Lotus Unlimited". Unlimited being a reprint, the price is still amazingly high, I own a sheet of the unlimited version and one original. I'm waiting for the mafia to want to take my legs before I think of selling those.
