Wide Awake Tee with Miller tag – $102.50

To be perfectly honest, I’ve never been the biggest Wide Awake fan. I dig Wide Awake, but of all the schism releases, this one is my least favorite. HOWEVER, the wide awake schism tees are ILL! No doubt. This one and the long sleeve are near perfect. I forgot to bid on this one. D’oh.


Unbroken Test Press lot

This lot contained 5 test presses. 2 LPs and 3 EPs. If you do the math, that’s $240 per test press. Realistically, that’s a steal. If you chopped this auction into 5 auctions, I bet the return would have been closer to $2k. C’est La Vie!


Stop and Think – Long Sleeve – $43.56

I was hoping this was going to end cheap. That would help usher in cheaper prices for Stop And Think gear. It didn’t happen like I wanted it to. Anyone got a SNT tank top for me? Hook it up.


American Nightmare Hood – $33 (reserve not met)



American Nightmare Hood – $43

Here we have almost the same exact hood for the same exact price. One minor difference, I think. The one that didn’t sell is the “second press” of the hood. This one has a friggin tiny hood. No idea why, but it’s freaking tiny. The second one pictured appears to be the “first pressing” with a regular, human sized hood. Pretty good price for the hood at this point.


Uniform Choice – Straight and Alert 4 Sided WW – $159

All closets should contain at least ONE wishing well shirt. This would have been a great addition to my closet. It wasn’t meant to be though.


Sick Of It All – Tour 89 – $10 (seller ended it early)

Another great, old gem. I wasn’t sure on the condition of this particular tee. It either has a weird yellow/gross stain all over the back or the picture was taken in the worst lighting ever. Didn’t matter, the seller pulled the auction relatively fast.


Step Forward Records – Drug Free Youth Tank Top – $72

I’ve never seen this tee in a tank version. I was pretty impressed when this hit ebay. I’m not sure how it ended for so much money though. Are tanks cool again? In December?? Not for me. Great design. Hopefully the winner doesn’t think this tank top was for the Boston Straight Edge band Step Forward. Fingers crossed.


Gorilla Biscuits – Hold Your Ground w/ Purple ink Tee – $69

This tee came in two different colors. It’s often called the demo tee, or the hold your ground tee. One version has light blue ink, the other has purple. This would be the purple version. I like it. Good looking tee.


B9 Edge Day Tee – $0.88 (no bidders)

Maybe people forgot what edge day is or perhaps what happened on 10/17? I don’t know. Someone dropped the ball on a cool shirt from 8 years ago, though.


Bold – Summer Tour 89 Tee – $75.50

Great tee. I got mine from Dan Christie back in the day. I then traded it away. Stupid move, of course. I was hoping to pick up this one for cheap, but fat chance of that happening. Oh well.


In My Eyes – Rev Hood – $9.99

The first time this was listed, no one bid on it. WACK.


Mental – Purple EU Tour 04 – $20.50

This shirt came in a few colors. White with purple ink, white with orange ink, orange with white ink and purple with white ink. The purple with white ink is a favorite of mine. Anyone got one for trade?


X-Rated Swatch – $212.50



X-Rated Swatch Lot – $82.51

Do you see the difference here folks? It’s all about “how you list your item.” If you’re smart and do your homework, you have the potential to double your profits. Since you’d probably want a new strap for the first watch anyway, the mis-listed lot was basically the same watch plus a bonus. Either way, someone is going to have a crucial holiday season.

So there you have it. Save up that holiday loot because post Christmas ebay is going to get crazy. You can count on that.
