Kia Ora, I am in the process of setting up a online auction store, to sell a "variety" of items. Most of the items will be available to friends & readers of my blogs, to bid on or to buy, no matter what country they live in. I am looking at setting up a Paypal account, but there will be other options available. I will be open to swaps and I will accept items from your country as payment, that are easy for you to post. A few things I will accept will be - new birthday greeting cards; used phone cards; postcards - new & used. You will no doubt be able to think of other items.
I would like reasonably priced, cheap items that I can re-sell on the auction site.
Once the store is up & running, I'll put more details on here.
You may have to join the auction site, but that is no problem, if all you are going to do is buy. If you wanted to sell on the auction site, it could be a different story.
If you have any questions, please leave me a comment or send me an email.
Thanks
Krazy Kelvin

Krazy Kelvin Auction News - Oct / Nov. '08
Fifty Up & Running.........
Fifty - $1 starting bid items finally listed in my first ever attempt in selling on an auction site. There were times when I thought that I would never get there, but I have done it. If you live in another country, but have friends in NZ, tell them about my auction on Zillion. Ask them to bid on your behalf if there is something you are interested in. Hopefully it won't be too long before I get myself sorted and be able to accept your bids. Things that are easy to post, that fit into an A5 or A4 envelope.
My Own Auction ???
I have been playing around with the idea of starting my own auction / fleamarket right here on one of my blogs. Bidding could be done by leaving a comment which I would post on the blog. I see no reason why it would not work, do you ? You trust me ? I wouldn't lead you up the garden path, would I ? In all honesty though that's what it would be based on - trust. I'm going to give it a go and start off with a few small easy to post items........watch my blogs for a new one........Krazy Kelvin's Auction & Fleamarket. Items will have a starting bid as well as a "buy now" price. Everyone welcome to bid. NZ bidders / buyers pay in folding stuff into my bank account; overseas bidders who have friends in NZ can get them to bid on their behalf or if you don't have friends and I know you, I'll let you pay in "what have you" - meaning you let me know what you have to offer and what you think it's worth and post it to me. I'll post the item/s to you - do a swap based on old-fashion trust !!! All we can do is give it a try and see if it works.
No One Told Me
Many many moons ago, when I was young & krazy (now I'm older, but still krazy) and I first heard of the word fleamarket, I thought what the hell are they talking about. I had never heard of a fleamarket before in my life. I thought why the hell would someone go to a market to buy fleas. So.........(don't laugh, remember I was young & krazy) I ran outside, grabbed the cat, took it back inside and shoved it in the face of the mates girlfriend and said for all the world to hear........why go to a fleamarket to buy fleas, when you can have all the fleas you want for......FREE. I can still picture their faces as the tears rolled down in fits of laughter. (Talk about thickkk. Well, that ws the first time I heard the word "fleamarket" in my life.......and yes, we are still mates to this day)

You Can Let It Out Now.......
K.I.S.S - Keep it simple stupid, is what I am trying to do as I don't want to confuse anyone more than necessary. Anyone is welcome to copy my way of thinking when it comes to selling items at auction.
The following details are not set in concrete (so to speak) as I am still finding my way around auction sites. This may be my first but certainly not my last auction.
My auctions on Zillion might have a 7 day time limit.
Any items not sold after 7 days may be either -
1. Re-listed for a further 7 days
2. Withdrawn and re-listed on Zillion at a later date.
3. May be listed on another auction site.
Although my auctions are only for people living in NZ, I welcome feedback / comments from international friends reading this. You might have friends in NZ who can bid on your behalf. It is easy for them to join Zillion, if they aren't already members.
Once I have worked out the method of how international bidders make payment, I will open up my auctions to other countries. I may even be open to swapping things with international bidders. More on that later.
Do check out Zillion's other sellers as some do allow international buyers. Most of the other NZ based auction sites, do not allow international bidders.
Selected items will have "a buy now" price.
Auctions will close off on Fridays at 8pm.
Once the auction has closed, that's it - no auto-extend.
When the auctions close, items that have sold will be packed.
When payment is received in my bank account, items sent.
I will be using Kiwibank, as there's one in most areas of NZ.
Photos will be included once the items are listed on Zillion.
Items sent via NZ Post -
Cost for postage & packaging $2 - $3 per item (unless otherwise stated)
Items sent Courier Post -
Cost for courier & packing will be $5 - $6 per item.
As this is my first ever attempt at an auction,I'm not 100% sure about postage & courier rates, packing, etc. I am sort of going off what I have read on other members auctions. It will all come out in the wash, so to speak.
The following 50 items will be listed on my Zillion auction site, at 8pm on Friday 10th October. It may take me a few hours to list them all.
The auction will close at 8pm Friday 17th October.
Photos will be included once the items are listed on Zillion.
Bidders from other auction sites can bid on up to 10 items without having to join Zillion. (someone will correct me, if I'm wrong) If you are from another auction site, join for the fun of it, because there are bargains to be had, not only from me, but other members as well. Don't forget to have a look in "the mad house" forum.

He is going to have to be a "pick up", because if I carted him into the city on the bus, I would have to buy him his own ticket; a 2005 CD of Jonny and the Robba / Damm Girl. (I was flatting with them at the time. One of the Mint Chicks, who I met several times is the drummer on this CD); plus more books including a Lonely Planet Southeast Asia 12th Edition March 2004. Sells in shops for about NZ$50 ?; plus more soft toys, looking for good homes and a few DVD's.
I keep digging around in the sawdust in my head and uncovering all sorts of weird & wonderful things I can sell. I'll try and make a list shortly of the next lot. There may not be 50 as I might just replace those items sold.
You all come back now........and tell your friends.

Coming up...........more $1 starting bids, to be listed on my Zillion auction site, (hopefully) on Saturday 18th October, with the auction closing at 8pm on Friday 24th October.
A New Magazine (untouched by grubby hands) A-Z of Cheats & Codes / 148 pages. Sells in shops for NZ $12.50; A Solingen briefcase made in Germany, as new condition, completely bound in leather / cloth lined inside - too flash for a krazy monkey to just carry his banana's around in; a Sanyo walkman, with Phillips headphones & 2AA batteries(headphones have #SBC3329 on the sides); a big soft toy, which I still have to measure and put on the scales. He is going to have to be a "pick up", because if I carted him into the city on the bus, I would have to buy him his own ticket; a 2005 CD of Jonny and the Robba / Damm Girl. (I was flatting with them at the time. One of the Mint Chicks, who I met several times is the drummer on this CD); plus more books including a Lonely Planet Southeast Asia 12th Edition March 2004. Sells in shops for about NZ$50 ?; plus more soft toys, looking for good homes and a few DVD's.
I keep digging around in the sawdust in my head and uncovering all sorts of weird & wonderful things I can sell. I'll try and make a list shortly of the next lot. There may not be 50 as I might just replace those items sold.
You all come back now........and tell your friends.
Why Zillion ?
Kia Ora, Out of all the auction sites I checked, this was the only one where I really felt at home, so I joined them about 3 or 4 days ago. There were a bunch of sleepy heads when I first got there, but I soon roused them from their beds ! (hehe)
Pay them a visit........ http//www.zillion.co.nz
You will have to join as a member to look around, but it's worth it, believe me.
As they have welcomed me into the fold, I am sure they would welcome anyone. Some of the members even welcome international bidders. I will, once I get my head around everything I need to know about the international side of things.
As you all know, because I am a little krazy, it takes me just that little bit longer to get my brain into gear. What I intend to do, is to list items here first and then sort out what items I will list on my Zillion auction site. I will make a note of which items I have moved to Zillion and just keep adding more to the list. If you happened to see any item/s that are listed here, that tickles your fancy, leave a comment and I'll make sure to movethe item/s across to Zillion for you to bid on. Some of the items will have a buy now price, but none will have a reserve price.
Until the end of the year, all the items I list will have a $1 starting bid. What can Krazy Kelvin hope to find in the trees to sell ? Well you will just have to hold it, until I start lisitng the items. To start with, anything I list will only be available to people in NZ.
My name at zillion........what else but - krazy kelvin. Until I start listing items on Zillion, you will find me in my new home there in the community - the mad house. I was lucky I wasn't barred, even before I had warmed my seat, as my first post at the mad house was "I only have a little co....??? (hehe)
It's not the memories I have, it's the memories I leave behind !!!

Sagem 226 - $1 Starting Bid
I have another 021 phone, so this one has to go !!! Bidding will started off at $1, as will the other 49 items I will be listing as soon as I can, on my Zillion auction site. The other items will be "once loved" t-shirts, books, computer magazines, with disc and other bits & pieces.The phone is less than one year old and will be supplied complete with sim card, battery charger and those things you poke in your ear / hands free thingy whch I have never poked in my ear. No one has ever phone me on the number as it was a spare sim card. These phones sell in NZ for around $89 - $99.
My auction on Zillion, once I start listing items will only be open to New Zealand people, but there are other Zillion members who allow international bidders.
Auction selling is all new to me, but once I get the hang of it, I will look at the idea of selling to international bidders.
Manufactured by Sagem, but packaged and sold as a Vodafone branded handset.
The 226 is an entry-level handset sold as a prepaid phone and aimed at first-time users, or those after a second mobile phone. Its best feature is its compact, but well built design. The 226 will easily slip into any pocket or bag, and its lightweight means you'll barely notice carrying it. It features stylish chrome edging and a leather style rear plastic cover – the latter's surface means it won't slide around a desk too easily.
Importantly, although it's small and very lightweight, the 226 feels reasonably well constructed. The plastic build feels sturdy and definitely seems capable of taking a few knocks and bumps. Using the 226 couldn't be easier, as Sagem has got the controls almost spot on. A five-way navigational pad bears the grunt of the work along with two selection buttons and answer and end call keys. The keypad is flat, but the large, well spaced keys ensure you'll have no troubles punching out long-winded SMS messages.
As far as usability goes, the 226 is excellent. The simple menu and interface is well laid out and the row of menu icons makes it easy to access. Submenus are laid out in a simple list format and browsing the phone is easy enough thanks to the navigational pad.
I will list the 50 items here asap
