The seller? the insurer said they wanted pictures and if they deemed it not a total loss then a disinterested party or repair shop (hahaha, like where's one of those for dollhouses) would need to say it's a total loss or how much to repair....I sent the pictures today to the claims rep, I can't see how they wouldn't say it's not a total loss....it was insured through a 3rd party called shipsavers? never heard of them. If They give me too much grief I will simply file a claim with PayPal and the seller can deal with the drama. Sadly though I am so enamored of the chandelier that I'm crushed every time I look at it. =( 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WestPaces Posted May 10, 2018 Share Posted May 10, 2018 If I were you Susie I'd jjust file a claim with Paypal, Another lamp will come along. As a seller I'd just reimburse you and ask you to send the lamp back - at my cost. The seller can claim USPS. I did some sleuth work and saw the original listing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
havanaholly Posted May 10, 2018 Share Posted May 10, 2018 If the seller doesn't ask for its return, is there any way you could repair it? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s slightly possible - I haven’t even tested the light wire because there’s so much else wrong here lol - I’m hoping it could be repaired - I will give the insurer until Friday - after that it’ll be claim time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have been ignoring this listing only because they are asking $450.....so today I decided to "just take a look"....and oh. my. gosh. It is "just down the road" from me!! AAAAACCCKKK!!!! It says $450 OBO - - so what would be a reasonable offer for this? I think that house was made from a planbook. And you might want to double check - it says it's made from 1/2" wood and those doors and windows they show there are only made for 3/8" wood. If you're OK with that, that's fine. Of course, a lot of people have a hard time measuring 3/8" and call it 1/2", but 3/8" is sort of hard to find and they might have gone with 1/2". 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've seen it up close and personal, along with many others in her private museum in New Orleans. It does have a lot of very nice furnishings, dolls, etc. As for the price, it's worth whatever someone will pay for it, eh? Who knows ... that someone may be out there.

I guess she loves it enough not to want to part with it unless she got A LOT for it. She priced a Franklin Mint house (which I also have) at 80k, and she had redone some of the wallpaper and added some Reutter items and that seemed to be about it. I also love mine and won't part with it, but I don't bother listing it on ebay for fantastical prices. I guess in a way it is marketing for her museum? Doe she have to pay to list all those?
