Yes, I know I just had a giveaway, but I had another milestone pass today -- my eBay feedback rating just hit 100. Small potatoes for some of you, I'm sure, but hey, it's big to me. Besides, I had fun with the first giveaway so I figured it gave me another excuse to start one. 
This giveaway will be simpler and have a single prize: a raw 1941-S Walker which I grade AU-50.
I received my first feedback on May 26, 1998. It was also my first transaction. The challenge here is to guess at the item I bought in that first eBay transaction over six years ago. (Hint: it was not a coin or anything numismatic.)
Who ever comes closest in my opinion will be the winner. As a tie breaker, the more precise (and still relatively accurate) guess will win. If I still can't decide, it goes to the first post among those I can't decide. Even a vague, generic answer ("a car") can win if no one else came up with a more specific (and accurate) one ("a pink 1959 Edsel"). No, it wasn't a car, either -- this is just an example.
Because of the nature of this challenge, I will be the final arbiter of what is "closest" to the right answer. If you don't agree, sorry, but all decisions of the "judge" is final. This contest ends at 5:00 PM Central Time on Sunday, September 19, 2004.
One last request: Keep it clean -- there's nothing "adult" or "risque" per se in what I bought in that transaction.

My daughter was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes at the age of 2 (2003). My son was diagnosed with Type 1 when he was 17 on December 31, 2009. We were stunned that another child of ours had been diagnosed. Please, if you don't have a favorite charity, consider giving to the JDRF (Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation)

I had always scoffed at eBay because when you "win" an auction it means that nobody is willing to pay more than you.
Now I just scoff at eBay because of all the crap and rip-offs

I've been told I tolerate fools poorly...that may explain things if I have a problem with you. Current ebay items - Nothing at the moment

It's truly funny, no make that truly sad, that people in this day and age are so wrapped up in their own little world that they refuse to try and teach someone else the correct or accepted way of doing things.

A concert program from the first concert I ever attended, a KISS concert in late 1979 from the "Dynasty" tour. I was 14 and had to beg my parents to let me go with my three older brothers, and they had to almost sign an oath of blood that I'd be okay.
In my judgment, the closest response was from Neptune who answered "music memorabilia."
I will be contacting the winner soon for shipping details for the prize, an AU-50ish 1941-S Walker.
I look forward to receiving the coin!

PS. I love Walkers!
