nicpelWell, after enduring a dental appointment to get my first crown today (ugh), about all I felt like doing when I got home was working on some lenses. I don't know why it was so draining but it actually was more painful/uncomfortable than when I got the root canal on this tooth. I like this dentist but he only gave me one small shot for the pain this time...I think when I have to get one other tooth done up for a crown in January I'm going to say I need more numbing. Plus all the yucky taste of the glue and crap in my mouth...ugh! Not fun! And tedious too, spending about 2 hours in the chair either clenching my teeth shut or having to keep them open while waiting for this or that step.
Anyway. So I got home and decided to do a little more lens work. I'm really keen on maximizing the potential of eBay modules at the moment. I kind of ignored them in the past or just threw them on without a whole lot of thought of how to really utilize their potential. Then I read a really great lens this morning on Ebay commissions and how to maximize them and I learned a lot. Especially about trying to get those sales quickly instead of "whenever", so I went thru some lenses to see where I could switch from "list auctions ending any time" to those ending either within 6 hours or the next day. Not every search term has that many auctions running right now, but for instance, my Fontanini Nativity lens does as there are lots of listings for their nativity figurines right now. So I souped up that lens with more ebay modules and switching what I could to soon-ending auctions. We'll see if it makes a difference.
I'm on a mission next to see where I can add relevant eBay modules to other lenses or how to better tune the ones I have for maximum performance. Yesterday I apparently had three eBay sales from my da Vinci gift lens - for Italian perfumes of all things, each about $50-60. I'm not complaining, though I think it may just have been Dr. D buying them as I know he's just an addict for that stuff and probably surfed over to ebay after browsing the lens at work :-P I'll have to ask him tonight when he gets home...
