Found another special BUG friend ! This time in my mailbox !!

[Spitfire Reddie]

I can't believe i actually won this item as cheap as i did (due to a misspell in the auction title i guess)for 30.00 when its worth 350.00 or more !!!!!! Now i have two ! The new one is complete with its finger ring too ! Its not exactly like the one i dug but its close ! Picture one is of my two lucks side by side and the last one is of the inside of the new lucky

This lady didn't know anything about them so thats the only reason i got it so cheap (plus the misspell in the title) she thought its was around 20 years old when they are really 85 + years old.I love ignorance of antiques ! Its very profitable

congrats on the great find. Just letting you all now that there are websites that do ebay searches for you and include various misspellings of the words you're searching for. You can't even imagine how bad the grammar of people listing their stuff is. I've found some great deals, like a "cannon camera" rebel k slr with lens and bag. i paid about 30, shipped. Just google "ebay misspellings" and you should find something that should help you. Good luck to all and sorry for hijacking this thread.

I see someone wrote the woman about the bug i got from her on ebay.I took that bug to Asheville & gave it to a friend with cancer thats in the hospital up there that admired mine so much.Now the seller is saying that there never was a friend.I hope who ever wrote her is happy at what they did. .I try to keep my private life spearate from my online life as much as possible.There certainly is some dirty people around now a days..............
