Having a large family (8 kids - 4 home full time, 3 sometimes, and 1 on his own) we've collected quite an assortment of things over the years. Add 4 businesses into that mix over the years (including 26 years of computer hardware & software business - tens of thousands of computer CD-Roms, books, and computer electronics), massive traveling around the US, and you'll find quite an interesting assortment of toys - games - computer items, electronics - photography stuff, photos, articles stamps, baseball and basketball cards - assorted collectibles and sporting items. I've spent many years filling the 3,000+ sq ft house and assorted storage units. My siblings & parents refer to me affectionately as "the junk collector." Virtually every new electronic or computer device has passed through my hands at one time or another. Some of the stuff cost a great deal of money... some I got great deals on... a lot of it will be sold to the highest bidder! We are sincerely trying to thin out our accumulation of things! I'm sure we will have something for just about everyone in time.

In addition, I have working relationships with nearly 700 wholesale suppliers & manufacturers in the US, in various industries. There are few things I can't can't get, but obviously we'll start our "eBay store" by focusing on what things we have. Once those items have been sold through, and get a feel of how things work (as a seller) we'll be adding more items in the future. If there is something in particular you are looking for, please let us know. Just about anything for horses, nutrition, dogs, cats, home goods, socks, camping, RV use, and home schooling... are categories I have contacts and relationships in. We strive to teach the children how to do good, honest business. How to operate their own business, and to fulfill the supply and demand senerio of the US capitalism. Yee ha!

We are new to the "selling" aspect of eBay (summer 2007), although not eBay itself (I've been an active buying member since Janurary 2003, and made well over 700 purchases on eBay in that time... with only 1 complaint ever, from a lady that had changed her eBay ID at least 7 times that I know of... and she was regularly was charging bogus shipping fees (over $80 for something that only cost about $8.00 to ship). Even though I could prove her dishonesty, eBay wouldn't remove her negative feedback. So, we've learned to live with it. We are a good, honest, hard working family that's been fortunate enough to amass some valuable, and not so valuable, things over the years. We've set up the selling side to help eliminate some of the items we have in storage (we have 2 - 40' semi trailers, and 3 other storage areas crammed full of 'valuable junk' we aren't using either at all or much any more). Some of the things have a high value... stamp & sports card collections (massive - I mean HUNDREDS of THOUSANDS)... some is high value simply because of what it is (scuba diving computers, BC's, and certain computer goods and electronics)... some has limited value (clothing, kids toys, etc.). Please evaluate things accordingly. We'll try to describe them to the best of our ability, and point out any and all known flaws or problems with a given item. Some things we'll test, while others may not get tested. We'll try to point those details out in our descriptions.

Any ideas, suggestions, or questions are welcome. Our children will be helping with this venture, so please help make it pleasent for us all... no cussing, abuse, or rip offs. If you aren't planning to pay or don't have the means to pay, please don't bid.

We do travel quite a bit, and may not respond immediately. Be paitent.

Sincerely,

Terry, Kristi, JT, Halie, John, Mady, Tevyn, Tyler, and Tally
