Title: Tracking badges on ebay.
Post by: rogartdog on May 20, 2012, 06:21:36 PM
Hello,

I am interested to enquire as to what people put into their ebay search engine sight, when looking for nursing badges.

Up until recently, I have found that putting 'Silver Nursing Badges' seems to have given a reasonable list of what is available. However in the past few weeks, I have noticed that this is now includes - (to what strikes me anyway!) a load of inappropriate things ( such as plastic 'keep calm.....nurse' badges etc... to  so-called 'nursing stockings'!)

Anyway, any advice would be much appreciated.

i do nurse/nursing and hospital badges and medals. Have found badges under royal infirmary as well as searching unknown badges. Sometimes you have to narrow search down and i did get a very nice BRI (Bristol Royal Infirmary) for a few quid and you can get the odd Radcliffe infirmary - found one at £7.50 but its getting harder to find on this search as many sellers are getting wise Have searched under Orthopaedic collectables and found one there. Have had success searching under midwife/midwifery collectables. My other faves include school of nursing, general nursing council, nurse collectable, hospital collectables , nursing medical and redcross, and enamel badge nursing.
hope this helps
