Garage Sale Find (3)

After you'd bought them you should have told her about DS       

Elaine

And of how to telephone the hotel manager and state what happened and if the hotel was not going to replace all the sets for them - and compensate them for their trouble and heartache how she knew letters to the newspapers and interviews with young reporters who are eager to make a name for themselves and get noticed were in store; coupled with letters to the hotel's head office, regional and district managers and anyone who would listen to her tale of woe.  Not to mention going to the police to file a report.

She really should not have had to shell out of her own pocket for a theft.

That is an excellent find Wesley!! Two different times I have found playmobil items at garage sales, the first time I got the grocery store for very very cheap and the second time I got the Victorian mansion 5300 with a lot of the Victorian sets included for $30!! Now I'm just trying to find the expansion 7411 that doesn't cost as much as the ones on eBay!

Here are some pictures from what was in the tubs.  There will be more coming over time as I have time to take pictures.  Actually taking the pictures isn't the problem, the problem is resizing them down ...

Anyway, here are some of the specials:

3807 Bobsled.

As we can see in the second picture, they are getting some help trying to repair the bobsleigh.  If anyone can help these poor potential Olympians with a spare runner, they would be very grateful!

Here is the 3848 Hot Dog Cart (yes, the boy with the dinosaur sweatshirt and the Dino hat are present, I just neglected to put him in the picture ...) and the 3844 Hippie Backpacker (Trail Blazer / Trekking Tent).

Is it not fun to rediscover and rebuild these sets out of a big...if not huge as I would hope to do one day... pile?

[Lindama]

Gosh, you did amazingly well for $15 Wesley!

There are more - I will post them in a few days.

It really is fun putting them all together again and finding out what is there.

well i believe that's what this is worth ,it's not that a extreamely low price all are destoyed parts ,only if you need some of these you should buy it ,it's a fine price but not the best tag 

oh  rare specials each is sold for 8 dollars or something on ebay good good 
 

Hi

You see these can be great deals even when they look all messed up  we will get you to buy some of these "destroyed" lots yet  .

I bet there were some really rare sets in all those big unopened boxes in that big auction . The price was bad but like in this lot you never know until you open it up and sort it all out.

 And all the fun in sorting it all out is priceless
