What will happen?
This page is part of a new idea I am putting together at the moment. Each month It will contain a series of bought second hand finds, given items and free found items. These items will be photographed and digitally manipulated. The item and the image will be for sale on e bay and other places with a reserve price which relates not to how valuable they are but to how beautiful I think they are. This page will note if they sold and for how much they are sold for. If the object is from a charity shop and sells for a lot more than it was bought at then I will donate an amount back to the charity shop. If you have something which you want to give to the project which you feel is beautiful e mail me with the details and I shall give it a value according to my own tastes and arrange how I am going to get the object. Any given objects which make more than the reserve will have a donation given to a charity of the givers choice.

What's it all about now?
The project is about subjective responses to objects and may highlight how arbitrary monetary valuations may be. It may also come to signify a lot of other things too so keep an eye on this page.
What does each piece comprise of?
A box to put everything in with a hinged lid and wall mounts so that it can be put on the wall
The object itself
A price label for the object as a lone item
Receipt or a bit about where the object was found or who is was given by
A series of design postcards created from photos of the item
