One of my favourite 'it' stories was a few years ago I saw something in a plastics jewelry lot I knew just had to be the real thing....a nice large lot of assorted 'vintage' plastic items-about 20 in the lot, the one item in question was a large wide celluloid flower bracelet. As it turned out I few other bidders saw what I saw(not that that is uncommon but, at the time, being a 'newby', I was truly excited at the possibility of winning this rare bracelet!)...I ended up winning, paying 140.00 for the lot! Cool!....so what do I do?...turn around and sold the said bracelet for 180.00, to a lady who was writing a book on celluloid and just had to have the bracelet.
Another 'it' story I'd like to share(simply because my seller/friend no longer sells on ebay) She walked into value village one day and, being a collector of glass, saw this bag of marbles, something caught her eye...she decided to buy the bag, took it home and broke up the bag to make 'lots' from these marbles. The one marble she took a hunch on, listing it separately from the rest, and can you believe for a 1/2" piece of glass some buyer in Germany was tickled pink to spend 1300.00 on it(not a typo error...1300.00)...talk about having marbles, lol. It turned out to be a rare multi-swirled German marble from the mid-19th century, and yes, apparently the buyer WAS tickled pink.
'it': the player whose turn it is to chase or hunt for the other players.
