When I lived in New Orleans 10 years ago, I had a girl friend who did
business on e-bay.   We went to a train show in Baton Rouge one Saturday,
and she talked a guy who had about 40 original watch fobs to sell the whole
collection to her for $65.   This was simply being in the right place at the
right time.
