I am trying to replace mostly everything that I lost in our fire. I would like to go on Ebay and buy perhaps a "LOT" of mixed items but mostly embellishments. There are just so many sellers and tons of those mystery boxes,and trying to pick the right one is like a lottery.Do you know anyone or have a favorite Ebay seller that sells these kinds of things? Perhaps you do? I see all these beautiful cards with fabulous embelishments and I want some to play with. Going to a store just would cost too much compared to the deals you can get on Ebay. Dont get me wrong I love my craft/scrap/stamp stores!! I just have a very limited budget and thought for me Ebay was the way to go!!
Thanks for your help!! :-D
HI Jamie... I got a deal for you ~ if you want to pay for shipping of a flat rate box.. I'll fill it with lots of accessories for you that you can have for free. I have so much that I will probably never use and I would be more than happy to share with you ~ just PM me or email me ~ my SCS name @cablemo.net There was a fire in a home that I was staying at when I was first married.. we love everything but the clothes on our back. I know it wasn't easy. I couldn't imagine something like that happening today and loosing all my stamp stuff.. I would need therapy!

First, let me start by saying how sorry I am that you lost your crafting items in a fire... I can imagine how heartbreaking that was. :(
I buy stamps and embellishments on eBay frequently and can provide links to some eBay stores that I've had good experiences with... some of them I buy from repeatedly.
This seller is a good source for flowers that are sold in small quantities... for example, 20 Prima hydrangeas for $1.75. I like to get my flowers in a small amounts so that I can buy a lot in different varieties. The flowers are packaged nicely, sent quickly, and the shipping is very reasonable.
This is an online store, not an eBay store, and it carries a large variety of stamping/scrapbooking items... scrapbook paper, brads, primas, dew drops, ribbon, etc. They have discount prices and reasonable shipping fees.

Same here Jamie! I actually have a HUGE SU box FULL of supplies I was going to put on e-bay tomorrow night! If you will pay shipping on it (I'll take it to the PO tomorrow if you PM me your zip), it's YOURS!
Jamie,
I am so, SO sorry for your loss. I can not even begin to imagine what I would do if something like that happened to me!
I have a few small things that I have been trying to trade, but would be MORE than happy to send them to you and even a few snippets of ribbon, some extra paper and such. PM me with your address and I'll pop that into the mail to you tomorrow!

I, too, would be willing to send you a flat rate priority box full of stuff, if you wanted to pay for the shipping. I have several stamps(non SU) if you would like those too.
I would be more than happy to send you a box full of goodies as well. I do have a couple of duplicate SU current sets that I would love for you to have and a few retired sets for you to play with! I have plenty of ribbon, embellishment and some stampables for you too.
Just PM me your address and it will be on its way.
Looks, like a little bit of sunshine is coming your way ~ SCS folks are the greatest!
hi jamie,
pm me your address and i too will be happy to send my *surplus* goodies your way. i have 2 weddings in the next three months, and i will try to get it out,(before the weddings) but i will definitely be able to send goodies after the daughters are married.

Jamie - I've had friends go through fires and other disasters ... it's tough! What happened? Did you lose everything? I can't imagine what you're going through.
Miss Jamie...If you would provide your address I would be happy to ship some goodies off to you. Bless your heart...I pray you can be compensated properly for all that is lost. I am happy you were not injured and I pray your family is all safe.
Blessings

If you'll send me your address, I'll go through my paper stash and pull out some duplicates - I don't have any SU, but have gotten some cute stuff from Joanne's/Michael's/A C Moore. Let me know what colors you like, and I'll try to accommodate.

What a wonderful response you have received from fellow SCS'ers. WOW!
I am sorry for your loss, and yet, thrilled that you can reach out and be touched by so many.
I love how this community pitches in and assists other members..many without asking a thing in return. Jaime, hon, your box will be postal after this weekend. I have lots to share.
Blessings.
I was so tickled to get an PM from Jaime that she got my package..Honestly I will never miss a thing I sent her....way too much stuff! Blessings. Amber
Thanks! I'm am, however, thrilled not to be on ebay anymore. I was just there looking at my "seller dashboard" and it made me feel like I was in some kind of employee review. There was a category called "policy compliance" and my policy compliance "rating." Yikes! It's creepy. They are really going nuts over there.
Jamie, I hope you are recovering emotionally and materially from your loss. SCS is a very giving community...so generous!
My goodness Jamie we are almost neighbors. I can give you a bunch of stuff from my supplies. I have Waaaay too much ribbon, brads and even some stamps that are not needed.
Also there will be a Used Rubber Stamp Sale up here in Bellingham on June 14th. I'll send you the announcement via PM. Last year one of the gals was selling SU stamps for less than half price. Of course, she probably doesn't have any extras left -- LOL -- we all bought everything she had.
It's been a bit, but I finally got to the PO today - mailed parcel post due to the cost - it weighed more than I thought it would. Should arrive within 6-9 days!
Sorry it took so long!:(
