Ebay Pez Tip

Not sure if the Pez rumor about how EBay started is true but, it is a hot commodity and a fun collectible.

Today we see a lot of 9 vintage Pez with no feet including Mickey Mouse, Santa, Twetty, Cowboy (getting lots of views) $78 with a couple hours left. If you don't get anything on that link, it is too old. Ebay only keeps stuff for about 90 days.

As for modern, there is a 2009 Easter release of a rubber duck. Went for $4.25 plus s/h today. That would be worth picking up a couple (avg retail is about $1.40), listing them at Christmas or about a year from now. There are 4 Pez in this year's Easter collection.

Keep tabs on new movies like Monsters vs Aliens (featuring voice of Reese Witherspoon). A set of 3 Pez from the new is going for $16-$17 BUT, it is still a non-US release. My experience with Wall-E was, it was a good market if you can get the set within the first couple of weeks it hits the US. Keep your eyes out, that might be the best resale tip for Pez that you can get from WalMart (or Michaels or the grocery store) & flip for a quick profit.

Be sure to price to include free shipping, this gets you higher in the search ratings.
