Posts: 4Hi there guys i'm new here, So Hello everybody, hope your all wee.
Anyway I have the mentioned above Teddy Bear named "FRANKLIN".
Does anyone know any info on this. It's brand new still in it's box, my partner has hed it since it came out and it's lay untouched.
So does anyone have any info? It's by Lenore DeMent. Thats all I know.
Someone is selling it on ebay.nl for $695.00 (511.82 euros)
Surely not worth that is it?
Many regards
Stephen

Posts: 70I looked up the Yesterday's Bears and Franklin is the 2nd issued in that collection. I saw a few that were under $100 and also the one you mentioned. I think it's worth depends on where it was issued from, what condition it is in, it if was touched or not and also the worth the person feels it is. They might not know how much or little it should go for.
I would call Ashton Drake and ask them for a phone# to a reputable person in your area that can give you a true value of the bear or a website that they trust that can tell you how to estimate its worth.
Past Time BearsFound a mint condition Franklin in the box (box not mint) for $84.99 on the internet.
Posts: 4Thanks guys, yeah this ones mint condition, never been used or even out the box has a certificate saying it was number 3127 in the production line, looks the part. I feel I should mybe sell it as my partner never uses it. Sad I know but just feel it would be better off with someone else, rather than it sit in it box brand new away in a cupboard
Thanks for the info guys
I might actually post a pic later when I get home let u all see

Ok 1st of all thanks for your reply. 2nd is Do u know a number, Im actually in the UK. I'm in Edinburgh Scotland. would this still be possible to call and have someone near by?
The Littlest ThistleIf you Google Ashton Drake UK there are a few shops that seem to come up that are sellers, so maybe start with one of them - if they can't value it, they might at least know someone who could.
Perhaps if you search completed auctions in Ebay you might find one and see how much that went for... What people ask for things on there isn't really a very good guide.
