This n' That in Collecting
Browsing around the Internet I came across a few interesting tidbits, auctions and news briefs about collecting and collectibles, what do you think?
New Soft Drink on eBay
Cans of Dr. Pepper's new soft drink, Berries & Cream, are selling on eBay! According to the sellers, this is a new trial drink that's being released in only a few areas. So not sure if it's collectors buying the cans or those hooked on Dr. Pepper.

An extract from a new book "Chew on This" by Eric Schlosser isn't very flattering to the fast food business and how they target the kids.

This excerpt is fascinating reading and I'm planning to pick up a copy of this book when it comes out.

eBay Express -- What's It All About?

But I'll admit I haven't paid too much attention, I've been waiting for Ina Steiner to write about it on Auction Bytes. Find out more about eBay Express and whether it's right for you.
