😀 LOL I wish! A lot of the Windstones I’ve been getting lately have come from the Tampa area, and the Gulf beaches there are soo nice- the water’s more pleasant than here on the Atlantic side where I am. Have to go to the beach while we’re there! Sadly, I’m about 30 miles as the crow flies inland.
OFFERS- Emp SOLD; White mouse SOLD; Emerald mouse SOLD
I just picked up a batch of Windstones (and 2 foreigners lol) from someone nearby. These guys aren’t the beauties the white emp was; their owner didn’t take the care of them his did. They were all dusty, and pretty much all have issues, some big some minor, all have dirty felt pads. I’ve washed the worst of the dust off of them, and have taken some pics, including noted damage. We don’t smoke, and I detect no smoke on them. I can take more on request. If no interest here, most will go to eBay. I will be taking offers until next Sunday (10/17) unless I get an offer on one I can’t refuse.
As always, I do accept payments, even fairly long term on the more expensive items. I’ll post a price I hope to get, you can make an offer below that, worst that can happen is I say no. I accept Paypal, money orders, or personal checks (ships when clears). I prefer shipping via UPS within the US; I do ship international but will use USPS in that case. Buyer pays shipping, and I can’t be responsible if an international buyer gets a custom fee. Also, I will ship directly to a repairperson if you want one of the battered beauties to get a makeover before they come to you- you’ll have to okay it with your choice of repairperson first. (I do live near Kalandra, which may help with shipping) If you’ll be near Orlando, I’d be happy to meet you and save on shipping also.Emerald Old Warrior (production)- his head was busted off at some point and reglued not quite lined up. Otherwise he’s OK, but if you feel/look you can see the line. Since I really fell for him, I won’t go less than $250 on him.
White Scratcher- probably the worst of the lot. His tail was busted off and reglued with some nasty epoxy looking stuff. You don’t really see it sitting on the shelf, but it is oozed out of the join and HARD. He’ll probably need to go to a pro and have his tail rebroken and the glue carved out. He taught me one thing, don’t get a white dragon if you can’t keep it behind glass and/or dust and clean it a lot! I got him mostly clean; there’s a couple little dark spots left. Otherwise he’s not bad. Hoping for $80 on him.
NOTE: I’m thinking of doing a rebuild/repaint on him myself, so I’m starting to remove the glue(?). He will remain available for the asking price until i’ve got more invested in him.
Emerald Male Coil and Logostone- the coil is darker than I remember my coil being, but he isn’t jade. The gold is heavier than I remember on my coil also, and is like a jade I saw. I’d still call him emerald though. He has a chip on his back, otherwise OK. The logostone has various chips/rubs, some look retouched. Hoping for $75 on the coil, $15 on the logostone.
Black Male Griffin- he has some little scuffs and a blue stain on his right eagle foot (I can try and paintmatch over it if wanted, I have Golden paints). Worst damage is a broken off end on his left ear. It was painted over and you don’t notice it at first, but the tip is gone. Will try to get more pics; my camera is acting up. Asking $85
Michael Whelan/Franklin Mint Guardian series dragon, the gold one. He has a couple chipped fingers, I think I may be able to fix them. Hoping for $40.
Finally found my extra Dragonsite annual dragon, ‘Windows of Wonder’ by Andrew Bill! It is the 2003 annual, and long sold out in the US. It was a gift to me, but I’d already bought one from the UK. It is a really cool looking piece, and it took me a long time to find mine. It was apparently sitting in a resale shop for a while, and has some shelf damage- a couple missing toes, (I think) a chipped flange on his tail, and some minor paint rubs. Not very apparent. Comes with original box/clamshell/certificate of authenticity. It sold for $100 new; that’s what I paid for mine and had seen other (sold) ones advertised for. Hoping for $50. The peacock young dragon is for size comparison only.
