Have not posted in a bit

[Janus]

But I was waiting to see about some deal I found on Craigslist. I sent out the money and they said the stuff is in the mail. I will try to post pics when I can. But according to the guy there are 90 of the guys and from teh pics all the ones I have wanted just about. Plus the Christmas Ornaments which will be uber cool to hang on the tree.

[bill walters]

Yes please post pic's of what you get. Closeup's of the good one's. Also let us know what kind of a deal you got for them. I have all twelve of the christmas orniments but don't have a tree to put them on. They sell real trees right accross the street too.

See if this shows them or not. All of them (about 88 in total) for 94 shipped ($80 and 10 Shipping and 4 insurance). I am happy cause I finally have a plain Smurfette and Papa Smurf. Also I have Glider Smurf which is one I lost a long time ago...very pleased to have him back.

[bill walters]

No it just took me to the log in. I don't have a password to photobucket.

Let me know if this works if it does I will post the rest.

[bill walters]

No it didn't work either. It should show up blue if it is a link maybe something got added or deleted.

[bill walters]

Try this go to the pic. Take it to its largest form. Then right click on it. At the bottom you will see properties. Left click that. A new box will show up and in the middle you will see URL, left click twice this should highlight the whole thing. Once highlighted Right click and copy it. Then come back here. Open a reply and in the top bunch of items you will see one in yellow that looks like a post card with stamp. hold you cursor over it, it will say insert image. Once you have clicked it a drop down will cover the entire top of the page click on the strip it will ask you to temporllary allow scripted windows. click on that. Then click on the postcard again. A new box will appear. I usually hit space to get rid of the http then right click in the box and paste your URL. The hit OK when you submit your message the pic will appear.

[Janus]

Let me know if I got a good deal or not thanks. At any rate I like that I got a plain papa, smurfette, brainy, greedy, glider smurf, pirate smurf, and centurian (amongst others, but these were my favs as a kid).

[bill walters]

I don't know what you did wrong that time but it didn't work.
Strike that it did work. I forgot I have to click on each link.

[bill walters]

I don't remember you saying how much you paid.

[Janus]

All of it for 80 (plus the 14 for shipping and insurance).

[PonySmurf]

Doesn't seem like a bad deal. I reckon they'd clean up nice!

[Janus]

They are really not all that bad a condition actually (prolly my lovely camera abilites more than anything). I still need to add the 137 my wife got for me for Christmas yet.

[PonySmurf]

Well done! I am slowly catching up. I think I have 50 or so in my collection now. I need to get a new pic taken! Just added the Trick or Treater to my collection (the one wearing the Gargamel mask) ;)

[Janus]

Cool...I think I just lucked way out on these fellows. My wife paid a lot for the stuff she bought, but still about 3 dollars a Smurf. She feels bad cause of the deal I got.

[bill walters]

I counted 73 regurlars, 9 supers and 7 Christmas ornimants. So I would say that you got a heck of a deal. Just the Wreath books at $225 and sells on ebay for around $50 to $80. I didn't see any serious flaws not even any missing pieces on the supers. I see lots of auctions sell on ebay for about $2 a piece for commons. You have a couple of more rare one's So your stock goes up. Plus they all looked really mint to me.

[bill walters]

Depends on what she got. $3 a Smurf is not a bad price. But I find that people will only pay around $2 unless there is something rare in the bunch.

[Janus]

Sweet...I did send an email to dude cause the original pic he sent showed more than what he sent...I will have to see what he says, but I am pleased as punch with what I did get.

[Janus]

Depends on what she got. $3 a Smurf is not a bad price. But I find that people will only pay around $2 unless there is something rare in the bunch.


Well I know there are a couple of Astros in the group, a teal baby Smurf or two, the pastel baby smurf blocks, a ton of others...Cannot remember them all...lots of doubles int eh mix though. This was a lot of singles.

[bill walters]

You had to mention that Smurf PonySmurf. I bought out a dealer in around 1985 he had probibly 10 of those I gave away 9 of them to kids, along with that many witches and #1 Grads. :bonk: :bonk: :bonk: There were probibly more that I don't recall. Paid $75 for a collectors center and about 150 Smurfs.

[Janus]

Nice deal there.

[bill walters]

The astro's are getting more rare all the time. Please post Pic's as soon as Santa brings them to you. lol

[Janus]

I will...I also saw a smurf in a cage in the mix...I like him and two prison garb smurfs.

[bill walters]

I got the Smurfette batter in the case. She is hight dollar. $279 I think. The case is around $250. And there were 93 others in the case.

[Janus]

Sweetness. At some point I will nail some nice rare stuff...Though I e wanting me some houses and windmills next.

[bill walters]

If you have one. Check out your Toys R Us. They have The large house, Smurfette's house and blue roof house, Two playsets Gargamels lab and Drummer. You could have diffrent stuff in yours. They have a windmill but it's the new one.

[Janus]

I do have a TrU, but are these like the old ones? If so I am going next time I get paid.

[bill walters]

Yes They are but in newer boxes. The houses are $14.99, so are the playsets, The large house is $39.99. There are also some of the newer Smurfs. You can also find a lot of stuff for $1 at Target. Nice stuff for stockings.

[Janus]

I do not mind new boxes...they are temporary until I take them out to play with them...I am slightly kid like.

[bill walters]

I gotta go to bed now. But if you can't find the target stuff let me know I have an extra set of everything. There are aprox 30 item. Take a look at Bill's collection below to see the items. 4 tote bags, 4 signs, three magnetic note pads, 4 pairs of socks, 4 lip baums, Magnets, buttons, and sticker, also 6 figures same as the two packs.

[bill walters]

Who isn't on here? I know I am. and always will be.

[Janus]

Cool deal thanks man. Crazy as it is, the mall near me also has a small area in the middle of the hall that sells the Jakks stuff.

[bill walters]

That would be really neat. I find that even around here. The stuff for a dollar has pretty much sold out. The lady at the register told me they are selling like hot cakes. If you see any pencils buy all you can. They were recalled.

[Janus]

oh did not know that...I will keep an eye out

[bill walters]

I gotta go to bed. Good night. Nice chatting with you.

[Janus]

hey yeah, you too my man

[Janus]

I thought I would just fix my links to just display the images.

[bill walters]

It is so much better with the pic's instead of the links. Next time you want to put pic's on here glad you know how. You can move your pic's to any other site you want also in pretty much the same manner.

[Janus]

Thanks again for showing me how to do it. I like seeing pics better than links.
