Vtg David Marshall Signed Art Sculptural Wall Mirror Pastel Floral Iris’s 39” ??
CollectionHero
Vtg David Marshall Signed Art Sculptural Wall Mirror Pastel Floral Iris’s 39” ??. This item is a beautiful vintage 1992 signed David Marshall Mirror. The mirror is in practically perfect condition, no cracks, chips etc. The mirror has different hues of pastel glass and is mostly round with the exception of iris-like flowers kind of peeking from the side and top. It is super difficult to photograph a mirror! Please note most everything you see is a reflection and not a defect. The photos are the best example of the overall condition. I have noted the only concern circled in black. It is not really noticeable to anyone, but I do need to note it. The mirror is around 37 pounds and measures 39” across + a few extra on the floral part. Due to the fragility and value of this mirror we would prefer not to ship it and are willing to travel an hour or so from our home to meet and deliver it. Local pickup would be great! If shipping is requested it will add about $150 to the cost to properly package and insure the mirror. (Condition: Pre-Owned)

1999 VTG Tiger/Hasbro RARE Sp. Ed. Furby, NIB, NRFB, ***See Full Description***
CollectionHero
eBay 1999 Tiger Electronics, LTD/Hasbro Inc. Vintage Rare Collectible Special TARGET Edition "Jester" Furby. Model 70-899, Released Date: November 1999, and was limited to a production run of 72,000 as an Exclusive for Target Stores. This Furby features blue and cherry colored Jester's hat with yellow balls as frills. It has a yellow body, purple tummy, blue/white checkered apron around its waist with green balls as frills, pink ears and cherry feet. It has unusual blue eyelids with brown eyes.This was the 5th produced of a total of 6 Special Editions for different retailers, and the ONLY produced Exclusive for Target Stores.Any blemishes shown are from general wear of storage over the years. (See Photos) SOME VERY INTERESTING FACTS ABOUT FURBY - NOTE A:The Special Limited Editions which are Individually Numbered were from a production run of 250,000 along with that information printed on their card hang tag. And, they were marked Special Limited Edition on a gold oval sticker. There were several different special limited editions produced. But, if a Furby was purchased in a retail store, it did NOT make it automatically a special limited edition of that store. As all Special Limited Editions were marked with an oval gold sticker on the outside bottom border of the box.There were two Special Limited Editions different from all the other Special Limited Editions.One of them was known as "Your Royal Majesty." These Furbys were Individually Numbered from a production run of 136,000 and that information was printed on the card hang tag attached to the body of the toy. But, on the box where the oval gold sticker usually shows Special Limited Edition, it shows the name of the Furby (Your Royal Majesty) and the words Special Limited Edition was printed on the top border of the box in gold print. The second one was marked Special WAL-MART Limited Edition on a gold oval sticker. This one was known as the "Spring" Furby Babies. This edition did NOT state anywhere on the card hang tags the individual number assigned to each unit of this Special Limited Edition. It did come in a production run of 150,000 pieces and with a Release Date of February 2000. This one is confusing as it should really fall into the category of Special Editions as covered in the next paragraph. This is all the information I will cover on Furby Babies, as this is a toy I did not acquire in my collection, because I only wanted to collect from the first 8 generations of the original Adult Furbys.Also, for just one selected retailer in the U.S., Shopko, there was the Special Millennium Edition. This edition was Individually Numbered on their tag from a production run of 50,000 pieces. There was also a Special Limited Edition made of this Furby. About 2,000,000 (2 Million) additional were produced, and each production run was 250,000 pieces, individually numbered and distributed to eight countries including the USA. I believe the other countries were Australia, Japan, Spain, and the UK which would include England, Northern Ireland, Scotland and Wales.Special Editions were limited to a particular numbered amount in a production run such as 36,000, 72,000, 90,000 and 250,000 pieces produced for such retailers as KB TOYS (2 Exclusives), K-MART (1 Exclusive), TARGET (1 Exclusive) and TOYS R US (2 Exclusives), but were NOT Individually Numbered. They did have the oval gold sticker on the outside bottom border of the box stating Special (store name) Edition, limited to whatever number of pieces there were in the particular production run for that store exclusive. The last produced Special Edition of the Adult Furbys was the Reindeer which was the 2nd Exclusive for KB TOYS at a run of 250,000 pieces; but, it was not stated on the oval gold sticker as to any amount in the production run.In December of 1998, there was an influx of fake furbys in the UK. The light purple plastic medallion tag was then made and attached to the Furbys' side (left side facing toy) to let the purchasers know that they were buying the original Furby! The plastic tag started appearing on them during the production of Generation 3 Furbys. Therefore, this makes Generation 1 and 2 Furbys that much rarer since there is NO plastic tag attached, as well as the Generation 3s that did not receive the plastic tag too.The bottom of the box shows only Tiger Electronics, LTD. Hasbro, Inc. purchased Tiger Electronics, LTD in 1998 under their umbrella of subsidiaries making Hasbro the "parent company." Hasbro started appearing on the boxes during the production of Generation 3 Furbys which were released in June of 1999. This makes Furbys Generation 1, Generation 2, and some of Generation 3 just a little bit more rarer since there is NO logo for Hasbro on the box A LITTLE BIT OF FURBY'S HISTORY FROM THE BEGINNING - NOTE B:The key to this toys' success laid in its robotic anatomy. Sophisticated programming enabled them to interact with toy owners and each other at an essentially unprecedented degree. However, one thing these talkative toys could not do, despite rumors to the contrary, was imitate things they had heard their owners saying. "Although Furby is a clever toy, it does no record or mimic voices" said a spokesman Furbys were cited as a national security threat and officially banned by the U.S. intelligence community. In 1999, Furbys were officially banned by the NSA, the Norfolk Naval Shipyard, and the Pentagon. Administrators allegedly worried that an employee might bring one into work wherein it could eavesdrop on a top-secret conversation and "start-talking classified Tiger Electronics (TE) was quick to issue a statement clearing their product's name. TE President, Roger Shiffman said that the government's misgivings were based on "funny yet incorrect rumors" and added, "The NSA did not do their homework. Furby is not a spy." Other wildly inaccurate anti-Furby allegations Shiffman's team had to dispel included several claims that "the current Furby has the technology to launch the space shuttle." After several months of dispelling rumors, the ban on Furbys was finally withdrawn.Furby was also denounced for supposedly interfering with electronic medical equipment, a myth that was busted by Canadian health scientists in 2000.The above information in this "Note A" was excerpted from a writing by Mark Mancini on February 20, 2014 titled, "Did the Pentagon Ban Furbys?"I, myself, can not think of another toy made before or after the original Furbys of 1998-1999, that was considered a U.S. national security threat as a spy, or supposedly having the technology to launch the space shuttle...Can you? Now, how about that for some history HaHaHa HaHa I think it is hilarious!I also read that this toy was also banned by the FAA and the U.S. Department of State (Over the Executive Branch of the government). Though the FAA still treats it the same as computers, cell phones, etc. requiring passengers to turn them off during flights Vintage refers to items that are at least 20 years old but less than 100 years. Items that are 100 years and older becomes an antique.Due to its vintage age of over 23 years, I cannot guarantee you that it works, as it has not been tested because it has never been opened since I purchased it in 1999. Therefore, I am selling it "As Is" with No Refund or Return. This Furby comes from my own collection, and I plan to hopefully sell more in the future. So, please keep watch.I will ship USPS Priority Mail including Insurance (if applicable) and a Signature Confirmation (buyer signature of package receipt). (Condition: Brand New)

Vintage Mid Century BERMAN Fiberglass Lucite Martini Cosmo Light Lamp 21
CollectionHero
eBay Vintage Mid Century BERMAN Fiberglass Lucite Martini Cosmo Light Lamp 21"..WELCOME TO THE INSTITUTE FOR HOMELESS COMIC BOOKS. I, the illustrious Professor Robot Hands, will be your guide over the next few paragraphs. Please feel free to pretend to enjoy yourself. Here at the Institute we use use every square inch of our sprawling estate to house our treasures until they find their "Forever Home". Many of the curiosities we have accumulated over the years are stored in the "ATTIC OF HORRORS" with its aptly named "Shelves of Slight Discomfort some are sent to live in the "Hall Closet of Partially Alarming Clutter" or the "Garage of Unspecific Dread" and some of our long term guests are housed in the newly rented "Corner Office of General Unease". Either way your item is heard about, seen, driven to, ordered, found, bargained for, obtained, traded for, bought, delivered to, received by, signed for, inventoried, scrubbed, cleaned, powered up, repaired, photographed, cropped, rotated, uploaded, listed, shelved, picked, bagged, packed, labeled and shipped by one guy...Professor Robot Hands. If you think you might want to adopt multiple items, just send me a list of titles or item numbers and I can make special listing for you with them all together. You absolutely will not get combined shipping unless you specifically ask for it and it is agreed to...most likely it will. Please ask before, not after you buy, before. I can't help you after you pay. Is all this glorious exposition too much for you? Does it just make you want to send me a passive aggressive message to tell me about how you can't be bothered to read any of it? You should probably just move on. It is likely we don't see eye to eye and that rarely works out for either party besides this really was a trap. Now more words! I pride myself on my expert ability to package and ship items safely. Depending on the availability, your item may arrive in a double taped new or used cardboard box with; air-bubbles, peanuts, padded mailers & packing paper. I work with whatever I have on hand and that changes daily. I try to re-use as much packaging product as I can so your package may not be "pretty". I hope that you can help re-use some of the packing material too. If you need extra attention given to your package because you have a small mailbox, live in an apartment building or have a carrier that thinks mail requires bending as part of the delivery process, just let me know. If need be I can get some sheet metal. However as much as I want to help, I have not, nor will I ever give a courtesy refund for an item that you say you didn't get but shows "delivered" on tracking. If you think there is a possibility of theft from your delivery address or it might rain on your packages, you need to shore that business up. Get a PO box or have packages held at your local...don't be puttin' it on me. Returns go back to the Institute at same address they came to you from. Some items are sold as in the package collectibles, removing them from the packaging can/will suspend your buyer protection. If I am at fault for damage or mis-shipment, I of course will take care of it. Any item refused, marked return to sender, undeliverable, vacant, etc. or comes without tracking will be abandoned or ignored unless you make prior arrangements with me. Message me your tracking & insurance numbers before the package arrives please. It is easier and protects both of us that way. I buy, scarf, obtain, scrounge & hoard jigsaw puzzles by the HUNDREDS from church, garage, community sales and such and they may have musty, basement or attic like odors. ALSO there is NO feasible way for me to count each and every one of them. If you are an avid puzzler you already know that counting the pieces is not a guarantee of completeness anyway. If you do buy a jigsaw puzzle and find there is a missing piece(s), please just let me know and I will be happy to take care of it. Just send me a picture of the "completed" puzzle with the missing piece(s). Buying a puzzle from me means you acknowledge and consider each and every puzzle to be uncounted with a possibility of being incomplete...it does happen although it is quite rare. To get refunded for any puzzle you may be required to destroy, or return part/all of it.You alternately may choose to select another puzzle from stock or take a credit for future stock.I cannot enforce this policy but if you choose not to follow it and be one of those kinds of buyers....well you don't get to buy from me again. Keys are not implied to be either valid or invalid on any used games or software. Vintage software and media are sold for their pretty, pretty collectible packaging/art work and not guaranteed to work or have perfect image or sound quality. Music, game and other discs may be run on a professional buffer machine and then described as LN. Used & LN HC, TPB, DVD & BluRay games, movies and other digital media may or may not have intact or unexpired digital download codes or coupons. Some items may be disassembled or partially disassembled to ensure they arrive safely and unbroken. Batteries will not be included. My items come from many and varied sources (it would be an impossibility to tell you the smell pedigree of every item I have for sale) sometimes but not always including; smoking households, homes with weird pets, households with different gods or people that cook gross food. These theoretical smells are subjective. If you have a sensitive sniffer...don't look at me...blame your nose. Making a best offer? Don't bother with less than half. I know that means you aren't serious and no one thinks it's cute when you waste their time. Starting with a lowball offer is not going to get you a better negotiating position with me...it's going to get you a worse one. Am I not responding to your totally lame worst offers? Just move on. Is the item already on sale? Well, that is the lowest it is going to go because I'm not here to give stuff away. When you come to my house...bring your money, or I don't have time for you.Wanting me to split a lot up? I bet you can tell what the answer to that is. Yeah, you're a smart one alright, I knew I liked you.Thinking of asking me to alter a customs form? NOPE....I will never, ever, ever considering doing it, so don't even ask. I'm not going to even pretend to entertain paying your customs fees. I can't even believe anyone even has the gall to ask that but they do. Can't buy from the Institute? It means you were naughty. I'm not bending my rules for naughty people. Am I an idiot? (entirely possible) Did I manage to misspell something even with spell checker on? Poor grammar? Did I use the wrong picture? Item details from some other book showing up? Got a $4000 handling fee? Is a fat blobby cat in the picture obscuring something? Shipping set to Overnight Express? Let me know, I'm just one, solitary, handsome professor and I list VERRRRY early in the morning. I am happy to thank for the assist. Know more than me about the item? ...eh, that's also possible. I'm an expert on many, many things, especially in the comics and toy area (1960s-2010s). I am not however Big King UGG- All Highest of Nerdlandia & Beyond. There are times where I'll miss something like an armor bit, a backpack, a trailer hitch a broken wing tip or a chipped ear. For that I beg your patience. It has taken me 25+ years to amass the knowledge that I have but there is still plenty more to learn. Need your item faster, like overnight? Want it shipped as a gift? Got special packaging or delivery needs, like to a giftee? Do you just like asking pertinent questions? Fire away! Please note that I cannot & will not mail your item to anywhere but the address(s) you have on file with ebay and chose at checkout. If you have a giftee in mind, put their address into your profile and choose it when you checkout. Do that BEFORE you buy anything. Looking for combined shipping? Also before you buy, not after. Need delayed shipment? ...again, before you buy is the time to ask for this. Think maybe the shipping is a bit off? ...before you buy. Help ME, help YOU. I'm happy to assist you with whatever you need BEFORE checkout. BEFORE. before before before before. Problem with your order? Drop me a line. I'm happy and determined to help and make your sale right. I'm only one guy doing all this so every now and then I do make a mistake....only problem is, with one handsome and humble professor doing all the work around here, there is no one left to catch the mistake except you. Item damaged? Not quite what you were expecting? Well, dangit. In buying an item from the Institute you are agreeing to help out in any insurance claim, showing me pictures proving your damage claim and possibly keeping damaged merchandise and packaging. You get any given refund from me, I get my refund from who I used to get your item delivered. To start, you show me a picture of the item damaged and the damaged packaging along with the correspondence or notes from the USPS. I may end up working it out through USPS insurance and a postal inspector might need to take possession of the item or I may ask for a part to be mailed back, like a book cover or part of the box, I may ask you to destroy the item & provide photo proof or I may call it a wash with no further action needed by either of us. Remember you need to save any notes, damaged packaging & the damaged item as well because it may need to be given to the PO as part of a claim. I totally believe you that your item was damaged or not as described, now you can totally believe me that I need to see that picture anyway. Item go missing? Well...I have online view-able tracking on just about every package so just let me know and both of us can easily look into it. If it is a week or more outside of delivery then we should both call the USPS. It will dramatically increase the chances of shaking loose any stuck packages within the system. Please note Hawaii and Alaska residents you should already know that ebay delivery estimates to you are NEVER correct. I have had NO packages make it Alaska or Hawaii in the estimated time frame in over 20 years. Not one.So Stay Calm. You have 5 days to pay. The first possible chance I get I will cancel and re-list and ebay will give you a non-payment strike. I'm not going to beg you to pay, so you do your part and I'll do my part...capisce? I do not honor buyer requested cancellations unless it is discussed with me directly in messages prior...and you better sell me on your story. "I don't know what I'm doing.", "I found it cheaper", "I am poor" or "I didn't read/look" are all equally unacceptable reasons. Your absolutely pathetic excuse better include werewolf bites, demonic possession or something real interesting for me to read. Don't be giving me "accidentally" hit the "Buy It Now"...and what? You accidentally searched for, found, clicked on, bought, checked out AND paid too? Pffft...you don't think I know how ebay works? Get real. Not sure what the item is that I am selling? I know right! (You'd be surprised how often this happens) This is a BIG, ENORMOUS, TITANIC, YUUUGE hint that maybe you shouldn't just go and willy-nilly hit "Buy It Now". Look, I know I am not the most flowery of description writers. "This is the name of the thing I have, it is in X condition.", is about as far as I go. I sell niche market collectibles and oddities mostly. I can't even begin to imagine how you possibly got here if you don't know what my thing is...and if you do not know what my thing is or you are unfamiliar with it...ASK. I'd so much rather you DID NOT buy something from me if you don't know what it is or what I am talking about. ...and why are you offering me money for stuff that you don't even know what it is in the first place? WHY DOES THIS HAPPEN?Let me repeat that in a different way, even though I shouldn't have to: "If you do not know what it is you are looking at in my store, do not buy it!". Pause. Another pause. Ask me what it is. If you still don't know after that... If you are not sure what shelf wear, ding, stress, variant, chipping, oxidation, acid staining, Silver, Bronze, Copper Age, Full Bleed, JLA, JSA, BTVS, LOTR, ST:TNG, VF, GN, HC, PF, PB, TPB, OGN, OAV, MOC, MISB, DCU, MSRP or any of the other hundreds of common pop culture lingo terms mean....you are over your head and you are going to need some help. It's OK. Everyone starts somewhere. Feel free to ask me anything, (except the exact measurements of t-shirts....man if you require perfectly tailored t-shirts, ebay is not the place for you...try Millionaires T-Shirt Depot instead.) I'm your 20+ years experience Nerd Prince expert. Please make your questions very specific if you need more information and please...do your asking before you buy.If I don't respond, maybe there is a good reason why and maybe there isn't. Please just move on. My handling time is 1 day, but most shipments go out in far less than 24 hours and even some within mere minutes of paying and I won't be able to read any notes you included at checkout because I pack and pull with a mobile phone.Feedback is automatically & randomly generated after you receive your item and are happy. Again, because this is super extra important: I cannot & will not ship to any address other than one you chose at checkout. Make sure the address you want your item shipped to is correct before you pay. Once you pay...that's it, I don't ask if it is correct. If you have special delivery needs, you have to tell me before you buy because most times your item is already on its way before your message is read. Firm but fair. Informal but professional. Committed and honest. Long winded and slightly amusing. Devastatingly handsome but not real tall.The Institute is an outlet for overstock and garage/estate sale & thrift store treasure hunt finds. I take it very seriously as this is my full time job. If you didn't like my novella length Wordy McWordwords, well I'm sure with enough time and counselling you'll come to forgive me. Also, meh.
