The Unusual and Odd

If you have been following my post, you see that I have been selling some items from an old funeral home. There was a bunch of items that ended last night on Ebay. It is interesting to me to see what people buy, collect and pay for items that they want.
I sold a couple of embalming bags. One of them had 4 bottles in it and the other 1. They sold for a bit over $100 and $60 + respectfully. I also had the rolling coffin stand. That sold for a little over $100 and then I had a great pair of mortuary drapes that sold for app. $125. I asked the lady who bought the drapes what she was using them for. She already had a pair and was buying these for a spare for show setups. She actually sells all kinds of odd and unusual macabre items on her website- WWW. MadameTalbot.com. I looked at it briefly for the poison bottles(which my hubby and I collect) but will be going back to look at the rest of the items. Another item that sold better than expected was a half dozen Funeral directors magazines. I feel grateful that I have another dozen or so to sell.
I also picked up an interesting assorted mix of items on consignment to list. They include Vietnam Jungle boots, an old doll, 2 postcard albums and old card games. I will get those listed this week so if you have a minute check them out- Alongthelineantiques.com and send me your comments.
