...oh, the siren song of eBay...don't be seduced by its perpetually gingery offerings... PayPal will lead you down the path of financial ruin... well, just...be a bit 'wise', unlike this writer... you can get REAL gone, money-wise, REAL quick if ya don't watch it...
ReplyDeleteBut, yeah, it's cool every once and while to pop on a few of the items up for bid...
If I had mega-bucks, yeah, I'd clean out the whole Ginger category, of course...
See, now you've got eBay in my HEAD!!!! I need to go listen to Pink Floyd or something to get 'de-programmed'... :-]
KIG!!! (and...be CAREFUL!!!)

It is so hard i agree, i just bought the one though and i only gave into that because its of Hat Check Girl!
DeleteI won't be going back in a while can assure ya!!!
well, I may take an 'advance' on 'Ho-Ho' this year... I can ALWAYS find SOMETHING on there to bid on... heck, some of the items I already have are on there with folks asking MUCH more than what I paid! Interesting...of course, ya can ASK any price...but what ya get is a different story usually...
DeleteWell, hope all is well - I'm still plodding along on the RIM post...getting closer...I'm working on a 'cap theme'...may turn out pretty funny...we'll see.
KIG, Kat!

I found a load of sheet music on eBay today from Sitting Pretty, pretty cheap but they wanted $49 for postage internationally :O so i passed, i did however win another photo of Ginger from the 1950s for $4.70 with postage :)
DeleteI noticed that an item that i had to send back because pages were missing (sheet music for Top Hat) was relisted for far more than i had originally paid and they'd noted that it had pages missing this time.. I don't know if they sold it however
All good here, review for Top Hat (on stage) is almost done, enjoying last few days of vacation as Anneliese is back to school next week!
KIG!!
Those are lovely photos. At this point I can't even remember whether I've seen them all or not....I've looked at so many. That's Bob Hope in the picture with Ginger and Jimmy Stewart --- a really cute picture at that. I definitely never saw that one with Jacques. I loved how Ginger looked in Heartbeat, and that photo captures her perfectly.
ReplyDeleteNext time I write to the fellow who saw Hat Check Girl in England I'm going to ask him where and how long ago. I expect it was decades. I still think you'll be the one to uncover it, though Molly is certainly on the prowl :)
Thanks for the headsup on who that was with Ginger and Jimmy! Ginger always looks so young in Heartbeat, i remember how much of a shock i got when i found out when it was made!!
DeleteOoo! hope you manage to find out :) It could turn out pretty useful ya never know!
Beware e-bay. It is a temptation that won't give up! The photo of Ginger and Jacques Francois is interesting. I wonder if it is from a scene that was cut?
ReplyDeleteThe photo of Ginger and Jacques is the kind of gem that you'd probably only find on ebay.. i don't remember seeing that in the extras on the dvd!! or that photo of Ginger, Fred and 'Shirleen' in those outfits (the girls not Fred) its like the mystery of what happened in the gondela between Dale and Jerry in Top Hat, i know its a film but oh to have been a fly on the wall haha!
