World Economics

If you go to Ebay and type in 2007 World Jamboree, Be Prepared!

I've been to National Jamborees and NOACs and the patch sales, after those events are always hot for a few weeks.

After the WJ and what I'm seeing, (stuff I threw away), being sold for is higher than I have ever seen.

Our .16 cent silky patch sold for $7.55, a Sunrise necker for $155., our Troop Cookbook for $36., the participant patch for $200., and a complete set of 7 neckers is up to $1,258. with 2 days left!

I've got most of that stuff, but wouldn't sell it for anything. In a few months the prices will drop to almost nothing. However, if you are thinking about a free trip to Sweden in 2011, a nominal investment, good timing, and Ebay can make it happen!
