Anyone want an old lamp?

We're having a garage sale this Saturday. We, and I use that term loosely, have cleaned out the basement and the kids are ready to get rid of a lot of the pre-school toys. I decided to sell the Fisher Price Little People on ebay. We have about seven different sets for sale right now. If they don't sell, I'll sell them Saturday at the garage sale.

Garage sales are funny things. People will buy anything if it is cheap enough. Hopefully we will have a lot of that going on Saturday.

Again, that is Saturday for anyone looking for junk that the Castles want to get rid of. (Some of it is actually good.)

Jewels,

Trust me when I tell you this... if you really truly want to get rid of it, take anything people offer for stuff (within reason). We wanted to reduce the clutter of 13 years of marriage and the only way to do that is let it go. Also, the first few hours will have a ton of "garage sale" people, then it will just tail off sharply.

Be prepared to get a few "early birds" hours before you open... they want all the good stuff. Our garage sale was set for 10 am and some guy showed up at a quarter to seven!!

God Bless.

Hey, what's your ebay seller id? I'm looking for more L.P. Lauren's really into that stuff right now & her birthday is rapidly approaching. If I'm going to spend money, I might as well give it to someone I know. :)

Our ebay seller id is thepalmdr (larry made that up)

We have 7 sets listed. (Castle, Farm, House, Main Steet, Doctor's Office, Bull Dozer, and Bus) My kids played with Little People forever! In fact I tried to sell these last year and they protested!

Susan and Christina have a bidding war! :) The Castle is the coolest.

Thanks. I found some L.P. up in MI and I figured it was you, but I wanted to make sure. I didn't know if it was some hand doc or something. :) Thanks.

The Palm Dr. came about because he was always fixing everyone's palm pilots.

Hey I would love to bid but do you ship to Asia? :-) I was looking on ebay the other day, got all excited about an item and then I realized the seller wouldn't ship to me. Man...they would always ship to Allen Park! Whats the big deal? :-)
