I started selling stuff on Ebay about 5 years ago. Cowry Shell Bracelets like the one Gale Harold wore on Queer As Folk became very popular. His character Brian Kinney was admired by all for his strong personality and of course he's gorgeous! I was lucky enough to find someone who sold it in bulk and was able to offer it to fans of the show. Unfortunately, someone else stole my idea and when I lost my vendor their business took off and mine went away. They also copied my auctions sometimes verbatim and the style. I ended up giving up, but now I’m back with several items I would love to share with the world including my Digital Art.
I travel a lot and often buy things that I like for gifts or for myself. I figured why not offer these items to the world and have bought several items to share with you all. I mostly get one of each item so onces it's gone, it's gone.
I’ve always wanted to own my own business and when I see places like Red Envelope with so many over-priced items I figure I could do that too and have more reasonable prices. However, it’s not that easy selling Elegant handbags from the Phillipines made from Abaca. It is known in the international trade as Manila Hemp, it is considered the strongest of natural fibers. These items are so beautiful I just couldn’t wait to offer them. It's been hard though and the summer has been slow but I can’t give up like I did before. Life is too short to give up so fast. I will be sticking around and will be offering my photography and Digital Art as well. I will also include items from shows I enjoy like The L Word and Queer As Folk. Here's to finishing 2007 in style with an Abaca purse at my side!
