strange but what do you do if your dog went missing? You will
put up notices for reward. Learn the basic on Google Adword.
Basically, if you input the correct keywords, competition
would be as low as 0.01 cent. Of course, you need to have a
landing page (Website). Try getting a free web page like
geocities, freewebs and bravenet. Post your single cufflinks
picture, description, year of made, etc. Not difficult to do a
web page nowadays. Try it!
5. Talk to Experts. Yes, this is what I love doing. Learn more
about your single before trying to find them. Know where to
start finding is more important than just keep on finding.
Experts like Gene and Derek could help you. Check out their
interviews with me if you have the time.
6. Search Engine search. Perhaps the most straightforward way
is to conduct a search on search engine. You never know what
you might find. Popular search engine like Google and Dogpile
would return you with a list of results.
7. Weekend Garage sales. This would be the pastime of a full-
time collector do you agree? You usually will be able to pick
up a few good ones on one of your lucky day. Just don’t give
up.
8. Antique Shop. You can visit your local antique shop and
browse around. Check with the shop owner if he knows anyone
having a collection to sell. Some shop owner might not be
willing to take that loose piece of cufflinks. They ended up
at the garage sales.
9. Attend Cuff linkers Get Together. If your community has a
get together group, join them. Usually exchange of cufflinks
took place in such event. If there is none, you can always
start one. No one is stopping you.
10. Write to Online Cufflinks Merchants. Don’t be shy to ask
them. You never know if they are actually looking for a
similar piece just like yours. Exchange can be done if both
parties agree to do a trade.
11. Advertise on local Newspaper. This might involve abit of
cost upfront but you never know who is would come along. A new
venture might result. Single cufflinks is really considered a
niche market.
12. Magazine Advertisement. Look out for local magazine on
Men’s accessories. National Cuff Links Society used to run a
publication call ‘THE LINK’. Cuff linker would place a small
picture to feature the item they wish to buy or sell. Although
this publication is no longer in production but local small
ads magazines are still alive. The fee is also lower when
compared to newspaper advertisement.
13. Creative Classified Ads Online. Write creative classified
ads to get cufflinks collectors to read about what you are
searching for. Maybe you can write 3 pages tips on how to
store cufflinks properly.

like myspace or squdioo to find or create a topic on single
cufflinks. You can bet collectors will start to swarm in.
15. Make a video footage of your collection. You can make a
short video using your cell phone and upload in onto YOUTUBE.
You can tell people that you are looking for ’singles’ and how
your cufflinks singles cufflinks look.
16. Cufflinks manufacturers. Check with the original
manufacturer of your singles if it is still possible. You
never know if they have a spare singles one hidden under their
bed.
17. Sell on eBay. Yes. Get your singles listed on eBay. You
hear me correctly. The point here is to generate the
interested cufflinks collector, singles collector to come to
you. Well, the detail on how to do this I won’t be explaining
much here. Do drop me a note if you need to know how.
18. Search outside your country. Yes. Travel out of your
country to find it. While you are on holiday, you might want
to check out the country garage sales or unique stores. You
never know what you going to find. Ask the local for advice to
locate the area best known for second hand sales.
19. Get a matching side. I am referring to a matching theme.
If you are missing a side on coin, then get a matching coin
side cufflinks. As to individual preference, you might find it
distasteful but it is really up to your tolerance level
towards your collections.
20. Offer a reward or a deal. Put on all sources that you can
get hold of, a small reward for people who provide clue to
finding your missing pair or special deal you can come up
with. But you better check out how much does your pair of
cufflinks really worth.
21. Setup an offline cufflinks club. You might to consider
setup a private cufflinks club. If you need help, perhaps I
can recommend someone to you. The fastest way is to meet and
talk face to face on a common interest. I am sure many would
agree.
22. Place your Order. Make a similar one. This is unlikely
what cufflinks collector will do but if it is a pair which is
not too expensive or not worth collecting, you might as well
buy a new pair and use the singles for decorative purpose.
The above are just some ways which you can use to find your
matching singles. However, this list is non-exhaustive. Only
your mind determines or limits the numbers of way.
