When in Doubt
Apologies for the delay, Queen Victoria’s birthday demanded that I take the weekend off and do some lolligaging. We had a bit of a shock last week as eBay delayed our Canadiana auction by a week, it is now scheduled…

I went outside on Saturday night looking for the Aurora Borealis but didn’t see anything, maybe it was the big city lights, maybe I was looking south? Our big Canadiana Auction will be running on eBay from May 19th to…
Talk about busy, I was working Free Comic Book Day on Saturday and I was emersed in family stuff for our Easter festivities on Sunday. Too much food, to much drink, too much desserts all lead to not enough ambition…
It’s official, we’ll be out of the warehouse on October 31st this year, I have some storage space lined up for some excess stock but it will just be space, no offices etc., a friend has a very cavernous factory…
Gah! Apologies, I don’t like missing posts. Laptop died on Saturday, bought a new one Sunday, the Geek Squad transferred everything over on Monday, then I spend a few hours Monday evening trying to remember all my log ins to…
The Women’s Hockey World Championship gold medal game went yesterday between the arch rivals Canada and the USA, it was an instant Classic, Canada took it in OT which made me happy, it was a great, competitive and entertaining game…
Hey, Hamilton will be a good spot to be in to enjoy the total eclipse of the sun today, lets hope the clouds stay away, at least long enough for me to test out these funny looking cardboard glasses. If…
Be careful what you read today. On second thought, be careful what you read every day. A couple of days ago I read of the passing of Daniel Kahneman, the behavioral psychologist that dispelled the age-old notion that people always…
I didn’t make it to the warehouse this weekend so I’ll have to attack the “heading to eBay auction” in the next day or so to get the lots ready for Jay to do his magic with. I didn’t want…

The spring Toronto Comic Con went this weekend, I saw some pictures posted and the show looked busy. I’ll have to talk to a few of the guys I know that set up and see how it was, how they…
I always forget to take pics of the warehouse progress, next week I promise myself I won’t forget and I’ll show you just how far along that big toy room has come. If I share these progress reports with you…
We’ve started listing Original Art (OA) on the weekly icecollectibles eBay auctions. It’s tough breaking in a new collecting bucket, you need time to establish enough followers of the OA portion of the auction but you also need pieces to…
I’ve already fallen behind on my warehouse updates! The plan is to still be out by October 31st of this year so I’ve already eaten up two months of this year and have only eight months to get the job…
Happy Family Day fellow Canucks and happy Presidents Day to the US of A. It’s nice having a long weekend. Long ago I decided the Monday off is better than the Friday off. On a regular Friday we’re all feeling…
I hope everyone enjoyed the Superbowl. Nice OT tension! I like these cultural things that half the country watches, makes for good chit chat and jibber jabber the next day at the office. The actual game is always the third…
We’ve had a few days in a row of sunshine here in southern Ontario and it’s joyous, we went through what seemed like 6 weeks straight of grey clouds, it was enough to drive a man to consuming way too…
What the heck is going on, seems like everyone has the flu! I think I’ll have a full crew at work this week for the first time since before Christmas! The problem with having a full crew is there’s no…
We’ve had three auction closings to date in this young 2024 and though it’s early I’m buoyed by what I see as an overall good start. Our icecollectibles eBay auctions deliver a good mix (always trying to make it better)…
A nice Polar Vortex has settled in over beautiful Southern Ontario making thigs nice and raw. With all the warm weather the first half of this winter I’ve found myself welcoming this freeze. A polar Vortex alone would not normally…
