About half of this comes from her personal collection and Kelly buys a lot of collectibles from estate sales. She looks for unusual items including items that are more prominently owned in other parts of the country. She is proud to undercut eBay prices by ten to fifteen percent. "I pass the deals on" she said. "I definitely beat eBay."
Kelly also keeps an eye out for collectors who have a want list.
