UK Marmalade bears for sale


Only two left! One of these odd sellers of which there are many, they seem to sell Asian toys and often Sylvanians at good prices. I have on occasion bought from one or the other of them, they've always been fine.

Nice. Thanks for sharing that. I just bought a set. Do you really think they're the original US version?

They are the UK version, going by the picture (the mould is that of the Evergreens, with really big parents). emoticon US version is the Petite mould.

I have bought from a similar seller in the past, they seem to get hold of odd bits of stock in bulk and sell it off quite cheaply. I got the Panda exchange students that way, for £10. Think I've bought from those two or three times and they were always very satisfactory and the items were genuine. If I didn't have them already I'd buy them from this seller. emoticon

It's strange though because I noticed after I purchased it that it says RARE US on the listing but yeah I remember the US version is the petite mold. I've bought things from some of these sellers too and never had a problem. They usually have good prices and very random Sylvanians at times like the milk rabbit girl with table and chair set. The the rabbit with ear muffs and I bought a standing baby Marmalade from one of them last year. I didn't even see it this listing on eBay.com. Did you see it on ebayuk?

I have the US version for sale. They're Brand New In box, BNIB. If anyone wants, please PM! I have an offer, but the person said she'll maybe buy it in the New Year. No offence, but that isn't working. You buy, you buy. Yes, I can reserve, but she isn't 'sure'. Anyhow, if you're intertesed, please PM!




P.S. Would love pair of Brand New UK Marmalades, though....

Re: UK Marmalade bears for sale


crandj, I saw them because I wanted to buy something else from them. It's quite odd, I wanted to put more than one item in the basket from that seller to save on postage, but the one thing only appeared on eBay UK, the other only on eBay US, and the basket only works on US eBay, so I couldn't put them in. No idea why the Marmalades didn't appear anywhere, maybe a glitch? Or some kind of weird seller strategy...

Francesca C, I don't mind holding things for people. I have been holding on for some squirrels for someone for about six months now. They don't take up much space and should the sale not happen a year down the line I can still stick them on eBay. They might even be worth more then. emoticon
