Teddy Talk: Creating, Collecting, Connecting

What a precious little baby girl!!! Love her!!!!

Holy Cow..............Speediest shipping ever!!! They are home already & I ................LOVE THEM!!!!!!!!!!! Need just a bit of TLC ( A nice bath & nose restoration ) but other than that, just adorable!!! They have the most beautiful eye color too! I will not hesitate at all to buy more Vintage Avanti bears........Beautifully made & just precious!!!

Thankyou ALL so much! Was curious because the seller said these are numbered 1096 and 1097. But not sure out of how many? I myself tend to collect large or Huge bears, so I immediately fell in love with a  couple of Big realistic polar bears that I see on Ebay, but the seller wants $600 &  $650 each for them! Which of course I cannot afford These two babies, ( not very big, but certainly not small ) I was able to get for $40 , I just LOVE them & am excited for their arrival!!! 

I recently contacted a seller on a huge bear for the shipping cost, and the seller came back with an OUTRAGEOUS amount!! Yes the bear was really big, and I purchase big bears on Ebay & I know that shipping has gone up, but it was a bit ridiculous! So of course no sale was made. But then Luckily, another one popped up on Ebay and I was able to adopt her with reasonable shipping cost. So hopefully in the future these two particular polars will "pop" up again at a more reasonable price & I'll be able to adopt them.

So lesson learned!  Thank you all again! Much appreciated!!!

Hi Everyone! Would anybody know if Avanti bears ( Jockline - made in Italy) are rare or collectible? Some I see on Ebay are decently priced, yet others are WAY out of my price range! Was just curious & couldn't find anything on the topic on Google. I just adopted 2 baby brown 1986 cubs from Ebay ( LOVE AT 1ST SIGHT!!) Had to have for my Hug, and was just wondering?   Jane :)

Here's my two new little guys!

Absolutely precious!!!!!!!!!!!!

Oh that sweet little face!!! Boy she made me smile!!! Thankyou!

Hi Heather! So sorry your going through this........been there, done that! Many times, sad to say. Now that you have filed a claim, you have every right to relist that bear. This is how I word my auctions & haven't had a problem since.

This is a Paypal auction only please. This is my only source of income, so immediate payment is much appreciated! I reserve the right to cancel any bids I feel are not of good nature. Sorry for the need to mention that but, due to past non-paying bidders I need to do so.

If you can maybe work something worded like this into your auctions, maybe it will help you in the future. Hugs! Jane

Adorable!!! Great job!!!!

Sweetness!!!  

Just GORGEOUS!!!!
