Jon Voight’s Car

Hi. My name is Josie.
And I am an eBay addict.

I can buy, sell, and win ANYTHING on eBay.
If I can’t find it on eBay, it doesn’t exist.

What exactly do I mean by sell anything?
Well, here are some examples…
• A bag of shells I picked up off the beach – a little old lady from Brooklyn, NY bought them
• A ceramic flute from Korea – a gift from an ex-boyfriend no longer sentimental to my cousin, Wendy
• A size 6X Celtics shirt
• SIX, yes six, Manny Ramirez LA Dogers dreadlock wigs for Jackie (the best was tracking them down in the bowels of the stadium to purchase them for re-sale)
• A torque wrench

I have bought just as many random and bizarre items…
• Handbags galore
• An armoire (it came in 3.7 million pieces)
• An antique black cat bank
• A MANUAL treadmill for my mother

But, my favorite purchase of all time is Tori Spelling’s table (see photo).
Yup, as in 90210 Tori Spelling.

About a year or so ago, when Aaron Spelling passed, Tori got into a tiff with her mother when issues of the estate, and more importantly, issues of Tori’s affair with the then-married Dean McDermott, arose. Tori, in an alleged act of defiance, sold most of her belongings.

In shear excitement of seeing – and more importantly, buying – some of Tori’s items, which you know, have to be beyond super fantastic, I kicked into super sleuth mode and tracked down the eBay seller auctioning off her goods.

Tori’s items were indeed heavenly. Gucci, Jimmy Choo, Chanel…
I had bids on everything (Tori and I wear the same size)! However, I kept losing everything I was bidding on…except, her antique end table.

The table arrived in a ginormous box. I really didn’t know how I would move the box into my apartment – until I tried to pick it up. It weighed only a few pounds. Perhaps, the seller forgot to put the table in the box? As I opened the box in the middle of my living room, I scooped out POUNDS of packing peanuts – with little sight of a table.  I scooped out more peanuts – finally I sighted a table!  And it was incredibly — LITTLE! The antique end table I was expecting turned out to be more of an antique plant stand. That wobbled.

After checking the auction description, the height was clearly there in print. Apparently, I was consumed in the mere fact this “table” was coming from Tori’s beach house to reside in mine.

I love it, despite its diminutive stature.  And, as they say, it’s a great conversation piece.

    A fantastic conversation piece actually. And a perfect example of "buy it just to say I did"...
    P.S. -- "Fashion" by Lady GaGa (incorporates all of Tori's luxurious brand names) Check it out.

      Yes, you are right...I HAD to buy something to say it came from Tori's...LOL.
      And it is even funnier that I was expecting something up to my waist, and it stands knee high!!!

      I am checking out GaGa's fashion now....

      You are too cool...
