Have you ever browsed auctions looking at toys you once had? I have exactly two items from my childhood, cause garage sales came into vogue when we moved from our childhood home....and all my mother saw was $$$ signs
Not really, though she sold items then that later she'd wished she kept. I'm thinking...yeah, ya could've paid for college for all of us just off that vintage Barbie/GI Joe (the full size one, btw, I called him Mike) stuff you sold for a dang quarter
One doll I had was a Jane West. She was Barbie sized, but most of her clothing was molded onto her body (in blue). She came with rubber vest and skirt though. She also had a horse and a pony (thunder and lightening). Was really tempted to bid on her....then thought what the heck am I gonna do with her? Especially since I have no Kens or GI Joes left to hook her up with....LOL.
Also had the original Mrs Beasley doll from "family affair"....course if I had mine...her re-sell value would be zip...cause her glasses were lost about two weeks after I got her
Had a talking Herman Munster....re-sell value zip....cause mine was mute by the time he hit the trash
Friend and I discussed how much we loved playing "mystery date"....remember
that....
open the door for yooouuur myyyssstery date... I always got the bum
Any way I was gonna get her one as a joke....find a mint one with all the playing pieces....sucker sold for 40 some bucks...decided it was not
that funny. Told her I thought about buying one....cause it's the
thought that
counts
