31 Club Antiques & Collectible Club is Growing

Through the 31 Club Associates Program, a 31 Club Member was able to participate in bidding for Carl Christian Brenner's "Birch Trees in Winter Sunset", at Kenneth W. Van Blarcom Auctioneers yesterday.

Yesterday, I bid on our first Associate’s Program Item. If you remember, the Associates Program is set up to help 31 Club Members make money on items they are not yet able to personally purchase. By partnering with us on these items, we can all come out ahead.

Our member, Jerry, came across a Carl Christian Brenner painting that looked promising, but he didn’t have the funds necessary to make this purchase alone. That’s when he called us. It was exciting being on the phone, bidding live for the painting. However, the bids on this painting went higher than our criteria for purchasing it would allow. Although I gave it a great college try, we were unsuccessful in obtaining this piece. Jerry said he would be on the lookout for more items to partner up on with the 31 Club in the future, and I hope more of you will take advantage of this program. It can be a big factor in moving forward.

Exciting things are happening at the 31 Club. Jeremy Peterson has just been accepted as our new Internet Specialist. He’ll be working alongside Chris and Cindy to bring you the best the internet offers. Having a Masters in Internet Technology certainly won’t hurt either.

Our new look should be up very quickly and I think that you will be extremely pleased with all the new features. By Jeremy joining us, Cindy and Chris will be able to concentrate on the frame work of our site and its content. I hope to spend more time writing and acquiring items to sell for the 31 Gang. We’re committed to winning the Million Dollar Race.

Now is the time to give us your suggestion on how to make The 31 Club better and more productive for you. What can we offer you that we’re overlooking.? E-mail us your suggestions. You will find that our market place will be expanding and this will be a great place for you to list items for sale because buyers will be searching us out as Jeremy broadens our exposure on the net.
Some of you who joined 31 Club through Amazon.com may not be receiving our e-mail newsletters. If you don’t receive newsletters, sign up, here. go onto our website home page and sign up for the newsletter.

Tomorrow, I hope to put to rest the belief that there are no longer treasures to be found by people like me and you. This story will get you off the couch and searching for treasures for your own inventory.

I am so pleased to see that e-mails I receive from members and readers are containing nothing but positive news. In fact, I haven’t read many negative articles about the Antiques and Collectible Markets for quite some time now. I think we have won over some converts.

Don’t just follow the daily Blog. Join with like-minded 31 Club Members. Turbo charge your treasure hunting. Learn Inside the Industry Secrets. Learn to build a bank account to last a lifetime, buying and selling antiques, fine art, and collectibles. My 220 page book, 31 Steps to Your Millions in Antiques & Collectibles is FREE with your membership. The book is also available on Amazon.com.

Daryle Lambert: Bad News All Around -- But Great News for Antiques, Collectibles and Fine Art

The Stock Market was down 250 points yesterday, unemployment rose to 5 %, plus housing sales were the worst in sixteen years. Time to panic, right? Not so fast. This might very well be the best time to be in our business -- buying and selling Antiques, Collectibles and Fine Art. In fact, it might even be the best time I've seen in the past ten years. With all this bad news circulating on every news channel, how can that be? Let's examine some facts to find out.

Higher unemployment means more people will be selling some of their possessions. That is good for us.

The stock market might plunge and investors might need to get some quick money to meet their margin calls. I've certainly seen it before in my days owning a securities firm. If you're not familiar with the stock market terminology, a margin call is when a person borrows from the brokerage house to buy more stock than there is money in their account to pay for this purchase. As the price of their stocks go down the brokerage house makes the investor put more money up so that the brokerage company doesn't assume risk for the customer. Where will this money come from? Perhaps artwork and other antiques? It's a good way to raise capital quickly.

Houses are being foreclosed or sold off, and either way, Antiques, Collectibles and Fine Art, more likely than not, will be coming to the market as people try to resolve some of their financial stresses. Again, these events can be times of great opportunity for us. So let's be on the lookout and scout out these situations.

As you begin to understand the 31 Club plan, you come to realize that you won't be hurt even if all other markets go south. How can that be? In part, this plan works on the spread between what you buy something for and what you can sell it for. With a very short time span between the time you buy and then sell, the market will have a very short time to move against you, and the spread that you've built into your purchase price should more than protect your profit. Combining this component with the compounding strategy, you will produce amazing cash results for yourself.

If you've been reading our Blogs, and you haven't yet joined us, why not? Our charter member fee is ridiculously low right now. But that's not going to last too much longer. Join today and become a charter member. You'll get in for next to nothing and not ever have to pay a renewal fee. Plus you'll get the 220 page book that shows the plan, plus tons of insider trade secrets that only the most seasoned professionals know. Click here to join us.

It is hard for most people to believe, but hard economic times create the perfect time to make the most money for those with the knowledge. An important part of our plan is having cash and being able to buy. These funds will be cash that you've created working the 31 Club plan.( We never borrow a dime from a bank or anyone else.) In bad markets, more things come to the marketplace to be sold. Since you'll only be buying the best, there will always be people waiting in line to buy your treasures all over the globe.

When someone needs to sell and you have the cash to buy, it's usually a done deal. That's why "Cash is King." We teach our members strategic buying and selling, not buying everything in sight that might produce a minimal profit. It's in the strategic buying and selling of only the finest and highest quality items that real cash will be produced and put you in the position to be "King."

As your buying account grows according to the growth plan we've laid out, the balance in this account can become quite large. Once you've made your next planned buy, then quickly sold it, you'll have an even greater amount to go on to your next buying/selling cycle. You can learn about our strategy and all about buying/selling cycles by becoming a member, here.

I have also found that in hard times the chances of purchasing multiple items increases, because people are trying to raise capital. You could always make a better deal for yourself when you are buying more than one item from a seller. If sellers have multiple items, your chance to make a great deal increases tremendously. And if you need help negotiating, we're just a phone call away.

I have told many of you that the months leading up to the elections should hold great opportunities for us. There is much uncertainty and nervousness, and there will continue to be until November. Happy Hunting.

If you're looking for the pathway to reach your goals with antiques, collectibles and fine art, the 31 Club can be the venue that will give you the nuts and bolts for successfully buying, selling and profiting in the 21st Century Marketplace. Join us today and rub shoulders with like-minded people.
