The Acquisatory - Harmony Kingdom End of Summer Sale

I told you Tueday about our End of Summer sale and about most of the eBay sellers participating but here are a couple of more with some links.  OMG here goes my whole budget. LOL


HARMONY KINGDOM -  This account is managed by one of my friends, eBetsy of eBay Radio and eBay Radio Party fame.  But she's a trading assistant for a jewelry seller who has the most gorgeous things and also carries the Harmony Kingdom gifts.
I'm really enchanted by these Pot-Bellied Cats

But then there are these (and wouldn't they make great gifts for the office for Christmas?) from Lord Bryon's Harmony Garden ! (and there are 30+ versions listed so no two gifts will be the same!)

OR there are the RolyPolys... (I love these ... see what I meant about my budget being blown to bits with a cannon in this shop?)  (isn't this poodle just the cutest thing? His name is Beau Brummel)

This is BRANDO - Rolypoly dog

This is Curly - the Rolypoly pig.

OK now I have to go work to earn enough to buy all of these before you get there.   Check back soon, because there are more good items on sale both at The THE AQUISATORY and some of our other sellers.  I'll be back to tell you about them shortly

No eBay Live but we Know how to Party!

John Donahoe in his Ivory eBay Tower has cancelled eBay Live for 2009 but some folks know how to party and don't need Live as an excuse. So with backing/sponsorship from www.WsRadio.com, Brainfood Syndication and Voicemarketing.com (the radio companies that produce eBay Radio and more on wsradio.com) and the leadership of Lee Mirabal (Griff's self-styled "Long Suffering Co-host) and eBay radio associate editor and eBay personality eBetsy, there's gonna be a party!

The "organizing team" of Lee and eBetsy have arranged very reasonably priced rooms at the Rio Hotel ($69 a might for a 2 room suite) and are lining up "presenters" now (so that makes this an educational expense for your business according to my accounting principles...and there for DEDUCTIBLE? Check with YOUR tax professionals for the final word but I'm writing it off if I can convince hubby to go).

THIS just in from eBetsy -
You know the dates -- June 24-25 -- and of course you know our destination: Las Vegas! We sign the contract for the Rio hotel on Friday.
