Hey Ebay shoppers,
I would love to see(buy)some of the things about Freddie that you are finding on ebay.
Whenever I search they tell me unable to locate. Is there a special freddie or CATM section that i can't find? If there is how do i get there?

Hi Joy - hope you're having a great 4th!
What I do when I'm checking out Chico stuff is: click onto E-Bay. Then in the block where it says "what are you looking for?"
type Chico and the Man. Double click on
"find it". Maybe a handful of items will turn up relating to CATM but then on that same page is "search in titles and descriptions". Double click on that and you will find over 50 items relating to CATM and other items with Chico, Jose Feliciano, Scatman Crothers, etc. will be listed. The
rest you will be able to figure out. That's the way I got all my Freddie Prinze stuff so I hope it helps you. Good luck!

Joy,
Also if you go to the same bar that says "what are you looking for" type in Freddie Prinze. You'll come up with a lot of stuff for Jr. but there will be some stuff in there for Sr. as well. It's all about dig, dig, dig...the farther you dig in your searches for Freddie stuff the more you'll find.

I hope we don't all end up bidding against each other for these items! It ends up costing more money than it really should for some of these items.

Cheryl Harrell · 07-05-2001, 06:33 PM

Yeah, folks outbid me on stuff. Like while I was gone I got outbid by 50 cents on a 70's TIGER BEAT magazine with Freddie in it. Fortunately I was able to get the lady who was selling to Xerox the Freddie stuff from it for me. 2 of the pics in it were ones I've gotte off the internet elsewhere but the other 3 were hot & I am sorry I don't have the origionals of them.

Whoever outbid me on it should be feeling really guilty for taking some hot Freddie pics away from me...

The problem with stuff of Freddie with other stars in it like magazines etc is there are other stars in them & we have to compete with the fans of the other stars for this stuff.. Yikes!

If you check under "bid history" on the different items, it tells you who is bidding on that particular item. If I recognize the name as one of our people here, then I do not bid on it. I've backed off on several F.P. Sr. items because I recognized one of the bidders.

Cheryl Harrell · 07-06-2001, 01:24 AM

Yeah I too look to see whos bidding on a item. Usually it's folks I've never heard of. Instead of outbidding me on stuff, come & join us on the boards. It's more fun!

Cheryl Harrell · 07-28-2001, 04:43 PM

The FP STORY BOOK by Freddies mom is her for just 1 cent:
http://cgi.ebay.com/aw-cgi/eBayISAPI...tem=1449983657

Please don't search for other stuff on him on the site tho cuz there is something I want on there!

Joy · 07-28-2001, 08:19 PM

Cheryl,
How i wish i knew abot these sites and the auction back in april because i don't want to tell you how much i paid for my cpy(although it was worth every penny!)

Cheryl Harrell · 07-29-2001, 04:47 AM

I remember someone from on here paid $150 for a copy of the book cuz folks kept on bidding up & up & bid it up to that. LOL! I got mine for $12 thru a book search on the internet & love it!

Joy · 07-29-2001, 05:05 PM

Cheryl,
I didn't get mine on the auction i got it through the bibliofind for 78.00 but with s&H it came to a little more(I still say it was worth every penny) excuse the auction pun(About the penny)

catcopy18 · 07-29-2001, 06:12 PM

I could NEVER part with my book for any amount of money! I keep it in my family room on the table and pick it up and read it again and again. I love his cute little face smiling up at me on the front too.

It's one of the few things I didn't mind paying a lot of money for. Another Freddie fan on this message board was kind enough to track my book down for me several months ago. It's good to know there are people on here we can turn to when we need them!

Joy · 07-29-2001, 06:29 PM

Catcopy,
I keep my book in my filing cabinet. If my house goes that will be safe(I also keep the negatives to all my pictures)
I've read my book 3 times so farand plan to read it several more times!!!

I was one of the "fools" who paid an arm and a leg for my copy ($125) I say fool, cause that's what everyone around here thinks, but I know mine was worth every penny. I read it once straight through, but I have referred back to it many times when I was writing my stories. My copy has become more of a research tool. I keep it in the original plastic and I should have it insured with Lloyds of London, considering what I paid for it!

I am glad I bought it, but I haven't been back on e-bay since!
