Selkie Posted January 4, 2017 Share Posted January 4, 2017 In the the description it states that it is 1/16 scale. "The Ashburton measures - 620mm high x 530mm wide x 380mm deep, 1/16th Scale" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rodentraiser Posted January 4, 2017 Share Posted January 4, 2017 It says 24" x 21" x 15". I've been working with small houses waaaaay too long. LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rodentraiser Posted January 5, 2017 Share Posted January 5, 2017 From the Bay Area: http://sfbay.craigslist.org/nby/clt/5942466272.html and it comes with the addition! This is a RGT, not a Celerity dollhouse. But someone threw in a lovely Lawbre staircase. I'm thinking it sells for almost half the price of the house alone. http://sfbay.craigslist.org/sfc/bab/5942781333.html I just love this house, but I like 50s houses. http://sfbay.craigslist.org/sfc/bab/5929514011.html Not the best deal, but I'd kill for those bay windows and that door. They've been long discontinued. And again, another Lawbre staircase. http://sfbay.craigslist.org/eby/art/5942855904.html And from Etsy, if someone wants a large Cape May house: https://www.etsy.com/listing/476274010/model-homes-cape-may-victorian-wood?ga_order=most_relevant&ga_search_type=all&ga_view_type=gallery&ga_search_query=%22dollhouse%20kit%22&ref=sr_gallery_38 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elsbeth Posted January 7, 2017 Share Posted January 7, 2017 I like the ornateness of this fireplace - it makes me want to try some patterns/foil crafting. But it also looks like it is resin...so I wonder if it is available for a lot less somewhere else. http://www.ebay.com/itm/DOLLHOUSE-FIREPLACE-MADE-FOR-YOUR-ANTIQUE-19TH-CENTURY-DOLLHOUSE/142231791081 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elsbeth Posted January 7, 2017 Share Posted January 7, 2017 Not ebay, but here are some cute (and creepy) Halloween miniatures - there is even a few pieces of "skin" covered furniture. Creepers. I like the use of ghostly images in mirror frames, etc - and I like the skeleton in mossy/decaying bathtub. Skin furniture....well that is edgy. http://www.twistedminiatures.com/Halloween.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smjsome Posted January 8, 2017 Share Posted January 8, 2017 Not online, but in an actual store - but if you happen to be driving thru, or you are a collector of this furniture, I thought some one may be interested. was driving thru Wichita, KS early this week and decided to stop at Paramount ántiques west - I have never been before, but needed a break. booth 228 has a glass cabinet with several shelves of furniture and bits, called reminiscence dollhouse furniture, and it's 1/2 off. I don't know anything about this furntiure or if it's at all a good price, but I loved the ottoman, and had Xmas money. There was an amazing desk with an upholstered chair - which I regret not buying, it was $70/ 1/2 off $35. I'm the cheapest person in the world, and that price just hurt my head. And a gorgeous (I would say it had a craftsman style, but could be wrong) dining table with chairs I know it was over $100, I couldn't look too closely at its tag, that made my teeth ache. And several other items, a shelf, wardrobe, etc.. I should have taken a pic. Some were pricey, some were not so pricey. I bought this sweet ottoman, the booth is half off, I paid $20 for the ottoman so, on my way home from OKC I stopped again and bought two chairs and an end table - 3 pieces cost me $50, but I had money for my trip I didn't spend, so felt I could splurge, and I'm a sucker for the twist on the legs. My eyes did water a bit. this is one of the chairs - 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
madtex1967 Posted January 11, 2017 Share Posted January 11, 2017 WOW! My Garfield is seriously under-priced if someone pays $1000 for this house! http://www.ebay.com/itm/Plantation-Style-Wooden-Dollhouse-GWTW-SERIOUS-buyers-only-/171927307981?hash=item2807aa86cd:g:~4MAAOSwgNRV8YVc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rodentraiser Posted January 12, 2017 Share Posted January 12, 2017 Maybe they're charging for the figurines inside the house. There was someone on eBay or Etsy for the longest time (they might still be on there) that wanted $170 something for an Artply Bobbi. That's like paying that much for a Greenleaf Adams. If you really want to go see overpriced dollhouses, go to Etsy and type in "dollhouse kit". People really have a serious problem with what they think their dollhouses are worth. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The price of the house WITH the figurines is $1500.00. I am just shocked they are asking so much for something so badly decorated with real size wallpaper from sample books and peel and stick tile. I wouldn't be surprised if the lighting are Christmas lights. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
minilover62 Posted January 12, 2017 Share Posted January 12, 2017 It is really amazing, the house doesn't even have windows, just shuttles on the front top floor, the staircase is totally naked, and no foundation. But people rarely undervalue their stuff anymore, almost always things are way overvalued, this is why when I find a true deal, I feel the urge to grab it!

And the resident miniatures! At least half the time the husband and I go on dates, we end up wandering around one of the two Paramount antique malls (usually the west one - there's another one waaaay out east of Wichita that's not as big) and I visit that case every time. I think it's always half off but it's still too rich for my blood and I agree, those twisty legs are awesome. I've kind of been planning a date where I can bat my eyes and pull the birthday card sometime this month for one piece. ;) I'd be willing to take photos the next time I'm down there if anyone is interested in the pieces.

LadyGunn Posted January 13, 2017 Share Posted January 13, 2017 There's a Brinca Dada Emerson for sale through the Facebook Marketplace in Wichita. It's not my typical style but for some reason I've always loved that house since the first time I saw one. Sadly, the husband might throw his first miniature-related hissy fit if I were to splurge $250 and bring home 1:12 scale house #17. But hey, this would be the first one that doesn't need rehabbing/building/finishing! ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Debsrand56 Posted January 13, 2017 Share Posted January 13, 2017 It's so gorgeous! I can see why you love it. If it were 1:24 scale, I would be lusting after it myself. Wish I could help you come up with a compelling reason why you need to have it. Can you convince him that it would be an investment, since they are no longer made? ;-) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This Emerson has been on Chicago's Craigslist for years now, and I have seen the price going down from $1,000 the first time I saw it, to $600 right now, and no sale so far.https://chicago.craigslist.org/chc/clt/5951991659.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elsbeth Posted January 14, 2017 Share Posted January 14, 2017 I have an Emerson I got years ago on eBay --it was some sort of clearance sale --$100 new in box and shipped. It is a fun modern house --the furniture is stylized and a little bulky, but I really enjoyed putting Lundy furniture in it and giving it a late 70s vibe. it really is a fun house. But I wouldn't want to go over $150 for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rodentraiser Posted January 17, 2017 Share Posted January 17, 2017 This is an old Model Homes dollhouse called the Mini Mansion, for those in the NW area. Windows and doors look to be original to the house. Owner says price is negotiable. http://seattle.craigslist.org/oly/tag/5952730185.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
