You will have something to brag about again. Never is a long time!! You can brag about the PYO (In progress) when I send it to you 😉

Speaking of bragging… I just got a jade oriental. $150. I will get pics when it arrives. 😀

Congrats Ski on your tan griffin for $100. I was watching him thinking of bidding and forgot when he was ending.

Congrats, Ski!

I feel so bad for collectors outside the US- those custom fees are ridiculous.

Oooo! Awesome! I wish my display cases were better lit, I never really see my jade oriental, it’s in the back. I should periodically re-arrange things so I get to see different stuff.

Spark, I thought you had to repaint your Jade because it was broken or something? Was it another one? Sorry, to be off topic, I was just curious.

Actually I have owned five different oriental dragons since starting collecting!

The first one I got was an old jade that was quite badly broken. That’s the one I repaired, and am still in the process of repainting.

Then I got a different peacock one, also broken but not as bad, which I fixed up. I was going to repaint that as well, but ended up selling it to somebody else.

Then I bought what I thought was going to be a jade dragon in mind condition, which turned out to be an emerald. (oops!)

Then I arranged to exchange it with somebody who liked emerald better than jade, so I got a jade dragon at last.

And I bought an old dark peacock in close to mint condition on ebay a little bit ago as well.

So I’ve had five, but right now I have three, the repaint, the jade, and the peacock.

Black Griffin Male for $130.50 I can’t believe it! 😀 I’ve wanted one for years and finally had a little extra money saved up this month so I decided to go for one. Gods I hope my husband doesn’t kill me for it later.

Yep that’s me. When I first got online I hadn’t created the RPG chraracter that my current username is based off of. That one’s based on a different RPG character from the first White Wolf RPG I was a part of. A character with strange luck by the name of Sierra Fortuna.

Well, the tuna name is easy to remember. 😀

Heee! My griffin came! He is as described, mint save for the chip on his toe! He is sooooooooooooo pretty! *bounces* I have rearranged the display cabinet for him.
