You know, I have looked at her about six times today deciding whether or not to bid on her! I want her sooooo badly...! If the reserve isn't met are you going to sell her to the highest bidder?
What I'd do now for some spare cash!
Love Becky xx

i might sell her to the highest bidder, as im kinda really desperate to get rid of the big box cluttering up my little room.
but it really does depend on what the highest bid is.

So did you sell to the highest bidder - I expect that wasn't as much as you had hoped for. Well if you didn't sell, let me know. I am determined to have that doll!!! Obviously, if you sold it then Im too late and I shall just have to cry :( haha - only jokin!
Cheers,
Love Becky

hey guys, thanx 4 ur interest in my doll, unfortunatly im not gona sell her to the highest bidder on my auction, as i paid £130 on the doll and on getting her into the uk, and i really want to break even or atleast nearly break even. my reserve price was £95 on ebay, and not even that was met, so id rather just hold onto her until someone wants her for a decent price. (even though im desperate to get rid of her as shes just cluttering up my room!)
chat soon bess xx;)

If you can hold on to her until the end of the month, I think I might be able to manage £95, but as I said, not until the end of the month. If you can't wait that long then I understand. I am just completely in love with that figure!

11-04-2003, 02:58 PM
id love u to have her but the thing is hunni that although £95 was my reserve i was pretty confident that she would sell for much more, i used a low reserve to try and tempt ebayers to bid higher as i really do want to break even.
so even though 95 was my reserve im not sure if id b willing to let her go 4 that much unless i was forced to by circumstances on ebay. i rewally hope u understand.
i know its a lot but i really cant sell her for less the £130 as i need 2 break evn, if thats too much then maybe il just hold onto her for a couple a years till she becoms really colectable and sell her 4 a profit, instead of just trying to scrape back my money.
bess xx ;)

I totally understand that. You got to get your money back somehow. Well, if things get really bad, you know where to come for a willing buyer! Cheers anyway x

I'm glad to hear Bexi that you are giving Boopsie's doll a good home while adding some value to your own collection. This is a good thread.
I'm going to go through some old inventory and offer it here as well... so stay tuned for that.

To the first person who wants this item:
I am offering an "almost free" Betty Boop shower curtain. The reason I say almost free is that you will have to pay shipping from our shop in Arizona to you.
This shower curtain is new but has some printing imperfections. It comes in the original packaging and is useable but I've been told that the printing isn't perfect. I don't know how damaged it is because I haven't removed it from the package.
So if you're willing to take your chances, you can have this shower curtain for the cost of shipping... which is probably around $5.00 here in the states.
The shower curtain shows Betty Boop in a bathtub. Bright Ideas #BB602. We sell this curtain for $14.99.
So if you want it, let me know at BikerBettyBoop@yahoo.com

To the first person who wants this item:
I am offering an "almost free" Betty Boop musical figurine. The reason I say almost free is that you will have to pay shipping from our shop in Arizona to you.
This figurine is new but Betty Boop has broken off and will need to be glued back on. Probably a hot glue gun will work. It comes in the original packaging and is useable but Betty is damaged.
So if you're willing to glue this imperfect Betty back together, you can have this musical figurine for the cost of shipping... which is probably around $7.00 in the states.
This musical is called Betty's First Crush and itl plays Aria from Rigoletto. Gift boxed. It is made by NJ Croce part #MB914. It retails on our website for $29.99. The musical part works it's just Betty will need to be glued back on.
The picture shows what the figurine looks like when it's perfect. But remember that Betty has to be glued on.
So if you want it, let me know at BikerBettyBoop@yahoo.com
