Found A “Treasure” In My Grandmother’s House!

Sunday, 22nd February 2004

I apologize for the lack of updates…. I’ve been busy with my army work and other stuff.

This morning I went to a local flea market to check out some bargains and to jot down the prices of some "Transformers" toys. Some of them are pretty hot on ebay.com and I might very well purchase them and sell them online for a nice profit in US dollars!

Let me share with you what my treasure is….

I remember my grandmother had an antique accordion at her place and she wants me to get rid of it. I have thought of the idea of selling it on ebay.com but when she first mentioned it to me last year, I wasn’t really into ebay.com yet! Well today, I actually made some good money from ebay.com selling off some Dolf de Roos CDs I bought last year when he stopped over at Singapore. I got them at a very good price at his seminar.

I actually sold them at a profit on eBay I guess I’m not ready for real estate at the moment but I will be in the near future.

Let’s get down to the details.

Its a HOHNER Arietta IM Accordion. The features: 72-bass, 34 treble, 2/4 reeds (MM) musette tuned, 3 treble switches, 15 ½" keyboard, red pearloid, w/ case & straps, only 13 ¾ lbs.

Don’t ask me what they mean cos I don’t really know! According to The Button Box, its worth a whopping USD $775!

Its still kept in its original box and amazingly its still in good condition after 45 years! That’s twice my age! It still has the original receipt in the box! There is a treasure in my house and I didn’t know about it! It was right under my nose!

I called my friend who is an expert Bassoon player and asked him to check how much an antique like that is worth. I’m really excited about the prospect of selling this beauty on ebay.com! The Killer Mini Sites ebook is going to come in handy when I’m writing my ad on ebay.com!

Till then, have a great week ahead of you!
