That explains the action figures on the observation deck. I love looking at those auctions. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder how many potential buyers shared Susie's experience with that seller. it just didn't seem so hard to count them out- good info for the seller to increase the chances of someone buying. But it ended as you said with no bids so I guess no one wanted to count their money either lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cathy C Posted January 9, 2019 Share Posted January 9, 2019 I'm getting the same vibe @Elsbeth that it is a self published book. I asked her to let me know when she offers it for sale on EBay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fov Posted January 10, 2019 Share Posted January 10, 2019 Let's take it easy on the lady with the high priced auctions. The criticisms are warranted, but this is a public forum and our snark could reflect poorly on Greenleaf. She probably sees the houses differently than we do. She's never going to sell them at that price, but I do think she's put love into them (as well as some nice furniture and accessories), and she's proud of her work. Sometimes we can't see our own flaws. 10 minutes ago, Elsbeth said: I kinda love tiny birdnests and they are lovely - but I always find it misleading or disorienting when they show more than 1 item, but are just selling 1 for that price: https://www.ebay.com/itm/Dollhouse-Miniature-Handmade-Birds-Nest-w-3-Eggs/143073121867?hash=item214fd2964b:g:r5oAAOSwWH1cKS0r:rk:167:pf:0 I hate that too! The nests are nice, but I feel like the wisps sticking off are way too big and out of scale? That would be like a 1-2 foot branch sticking out of the nest. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jrchob Posted January 10, 2019 Share Posted January 10, 2019 I loved the bird's nest and when I was looking, bought one! Will trim it up and maybe stick somewhere on the Winchester. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I got overly entertained by the pricing - even though I myself have said I would only part with my dollhouses for a million dollars or more...cuz I love them so much not becuase they are worth that.

Will trim it up and maybe stick somewhere on the Winchester. I like the realistic feathery and twiney bits...I also love seeing bird nests on/in dollhouses - a friend of mine manages to put them in nooks and crannies and it always surprises and delights me to find them. She even put one on her gypsy caravan. Love them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
