Big BuckaCover upload coming Tuesday July 29!
July 19, 2008
On Tuesday July 29, at 3:00pm EDT we will upload over 6,000 new covers to our BuckaCover inventory. We will also
add close to 1000 covers to the Cover Box inventory at the same time.
See the announcements page for a list of the top 20 categories.
For your own personal reminder (including a complete list of categories getting new covers, and quantities)
join our mailing list !
Thanks to our pricing method, not only will there be thousands of fresh new covers,
but thousands more older covers will be dropping down to the next price level.
(usually about 9,000 price drops!) We have outlined our pricing process in detail on our
"Pricing" page.
If you are not on our mailing list, you should be! Find out why!
Rather than try to give you the time in your time zone,
we have put a clock on this page to let you know what time it is here. You can use this website
to line up the time for your time zone: World Time Server.

New bargain cover offers on eBay!
May 14, 2008
We are pleased to announce that our son, Eric, has joined our business for the summer, during his break from
his university studies (PPE: Politics, Philosophy and Economics).
He will be offering a steady stream of bargain covers, starting at $3 -- usually about 200 per week, but we're starting off with
124 lots this week.
In the menu at left, you will see a new entry for "Lowstarters summer offers" -- that's him. You will see the same weekly format
you are used to for our regular weekly offers.
Because these lots are handled by a completely different staff, and for the sake of efficient shipping, we need to ask that these
lots are paid for and shipped separately from any other purchases from the website or our usual auction lots. We are confident that
the bargains you find will more than make up for this small inconvenience. Enjoy!
We are on a new server!
March 2, 2008
If you are one of our customers who likes to be "first in the door", you may have noticed that our
server was struggling to keep up with the demand in the first couple of hours after a BuckaCover upload recently.
It was like too big a crowd at the opening of a stamp show -- everybody jossling each other out of the way, and nobody
getting the attention they wanted!
To fix the problem, we just moved to a brand new server. This one should be be able to keep up. It has four times the computing power of our
old one, a faster hard drive and double the memory.
Roy had to re-write some of our code for the new server, so there is a chance some bugs may appear in the software. If you encounter
any strange or unusual behaviour on the site, please be sure to let us know, with as much detail as possible.
Enjoy!
Debbie and Roy
