Thank you.  Yes, buying those plastic boxes alone would be about that price (or more!).

Yes, the sorting is fun!  Albeit sad at the same time - sad when you realise this or that little piece or part is not to be found.  Which then often leads to happiness - you know you have an extra one from some lot you had bought in the past!

These Playmobil are very clean and well kept, actually.  I was surpised the ambulance and camper were not there but all the accessories and klickies are.  Nor are the horses, but all the tack is present for them.

I will post some pics of the sets I got as some are really neat and I honestly wish I would have bought them when they were new.  Yes, better late than never, but my oldest daughter would have gotten a lot of play value out of them.

Hi

It is funny that you mentioned that the horses were missing. Quite a few times I would be buying up a kids collection only to realize certain items were missing. I would ask the parents who were selling them and the reply is always the same. "Oh those are so and so's favorite pieces/animals, we have to keep them". Usually with girls it the horses and klickies and with boys, well they just want the money for video games :lol:

Once when I went to a bootsale, a lady was selling newish Playmobil sets, all in the boxes, opened but to played with/built (parts still sealed) And the Klickies were all missing.

So I asked were all the 'people' were, and she said that her daughter had taken her Playmobil people on holiday, and they had left them in their hotel room when they went out for the day, and a cleaner or member of hotel staff had stolen them from the draw.

So this lady at the car boot (her Mum) had bought new all the sets which her  Klickies originally came from, and then given her daughter back what she thought was her Klickies 'found' and then was selling the rest of the sets minus the Klickies at car boot.

After knocking her down considerably :lol: I bought them all up, and have bought the replacemnt Klickies to complete them (she obviously hadn't heard of DS)
