New Record!

Today I beat my return on investment record.  My previous record was for a TI-83 Plus Silver Edition graphing calculator which I bought and sold before I had this blog.  I paid $3 for it and sold it for $75.

Today I sold both Laser Tag sets I purchased relatively recently: the $3 set I purchased back in December and the $1.25 set I purchased back in January.  The buyer paid $20 for the small set (this was agreed upon before he arrived) and $110 for the large set (this was not agreed upon before he arrived; I brought it in case he was interested).  The small set isn't that impressive; I made an $18.75 profit on a $1.25 purchase.  The profit from the large set is almost 150% my previous record of $72. With this sale, I also made December 10th, 2011 my most profitable garage saling day on record.

This sale adds $18.75 to my 2012 profit and $107 to my 2011 profit and completely shatters my previously estimated income for the large set.

Hopefully tomorrow's sales will provide me with some good purchases.
