My 500th Post Dont want to miss this

Hey guys,

Just wanted to thank everyone on this forum for being so helpful and pretty much getting me to where i am today.

But also just wanted to remind everybody about something they should do on January 20th. As everyone on this forum should know that is the day Barack Obama is going to be inaugurated. Well anyway more importantly remember to save your newspapers and buy as many as possible.

Because if you look on ebay now newspapers from November 5th are still going for 10 bucks a piece and i assume it will be the same for inauguration day.

Especially for those people in New York, do what ever you can to get your hands on the New York Times as for those will probably be the most valuable.

So if you can get your hand on a 100 newspapers for .50 cents thats only 50 dollars which even if you only sold at 5 dollars a piece you would make 450 dollars.

All im saying is don't miss out on this opportunity

Eric

    Could be... but I'm not thinking the inauguration story will be
    nearly as valuable or collectible as the election story.

    The election of Barack Obama was an historical first.
    The inauguration is simply a continuation of that story.

    I could be wrong... it will be interesting to see if this works
    for some enterprising marketers.

    If you sink a lot of money into this idea you might be interested in a bridge I have for sale. Asking a price and getting are two different things. Hopefully you won't have to pay storage on all those newspapers. For your sake I hope I'm wrong but I won't bet any money on it.
    Good luck,

    Well the thing is that your right inauguration isnt as important as election day but there are people all over the world that collect newspapers and stuff and in order to complete there collections they will be willing to pay 5 10 20 times the amount of the newspaper thats who your really going to be selling to.
