                I looked at these from Ebay seller pds7117. But they are cigarette smokers.

                  Hmmm… There were a couple of sand tiger fledgies. This wasn’t one of the ones I was looking for though. Boo

                    Someone has listed a Jade scratcher that has at least one chip, though he looks good overall. They’re calling the color Emerald. The auction ends on June 7.

                        I saw their listings and because I am so allergic, I asked about smoking. They are Smokers. Smokers will twist themselves into positions that would qualify them as Cirque du Soleil performers to get out of telling the truth. Everything from the “We smoke outside” so we didn’t think that was smoking. Gotta love that one. To, “We quit last month”. So forget the 20 years of smoking poisons leaching into the Windstones. Magically it all disappears, because they quit? Ah…nope. *headdesk*

                          Good one Kimberlee; the Cirque Du Soleil comment made me smile; found the same myself.
                          Yep; I ask the smoking question several different ways “smoking or non-smoking house? Ever been exposed to any cigarette/cigar smoke? Any weird odors”?
                          Probably should add the vaping question too…
                          I am also severely allergic to smoke,bleach, and Star Gazer Lilys aka Rhubra Lilys .. start wheezing with all…
                          Thank you for sleuthing that info out.
                          Hugs!!

                            I’m not allergic but smoker smell is terrible…I hate it when I get something off Ebay and the moment I open the box, the smell!

                            usually I park said stinky thing on the counter next to a candle for a least a few hours and that seems to help but some still stink and need more candle time….but I know that probably wouldn’t help for those with allergies….

                              Yes, smoke is smoke. I’m allergic to it too and smoke includes incense smoke and candle smoke. If there’s a little smoke trail from burning, It’s smoke. No matter what the scent is.

                              I had one seller offer to cover the smoke scent by placing an item next to burning incense for several days.
                              I’m like how is covering smoke with more smoke going to help??

                              She just didn’t seem to get it.

                              Looking for:
                              "COSMIC SHIFT DRAGONS and KI-RINS" and the "OCTOPUS TANUKI TEST PAINT #1"

                                Alot of people don’t get it. They try to cover it up with perfume (which just aerates the formaldehyde and benzene as the alcohol evaporates and makes the situation worse). They lie. They forget all the ways stuff can get contaminated-old house, items from garage sales or Goodwill, antiques, used clothes, the random friend of the teenage Son who stayed overnight and is a Smoker and he touched every single Windstone while we was there. So true on the vaping and cigars and then the poor folks who multi-chemical allergies.

                                How I explain it now is this, “It’s like a peanut allergy, but with cigarettes. So any residue what-so-ever can send me into anaphylaxis”. That seems to get people to be honest, and that’s all I ask.

                                I have been watching so many of us get some of our Grails during the Pandemic sell-off that seems to be happening. In one way, I am sad that people are having to sell their Windstones, but in another way, by selling them to Collectors like us, they are going to people who will love them and the money is being used for rent, food, medicine…so it’s a win-win.

                                We need more love for sure right now. The current climate in the world is like a single young mother giving birth. The most pain we have ever imagined, feeling completely alone and terrified, but I hope there is joy and growth at the other end of it.

                                Do the right thing, when no one is looking...♥

                                  In the pre-Covid days, when they held massive antique auctions in barns, I won a hardwood curio cabinet that was soaked in smoke. Since I showed up to the action late, and missed the preview, I didnt know it until the auction was over, I went to pick it up. As soon as I stuck my head inside to remove the glass shelves, I was instantly overcome with disappointment and regret. Probably the same feeling one would get after burning money. I couldnt even bring it inside for fear the smell would re-absorbe into other things in the house. I never could use it for my Windstones. It took many detailed cleanings and wood treatments along with industrial odour absorbant that recharges in the sunlight, to get rid of the smell. Finally, years later, the smell is gone completely. Every so often, I stick my head in it, to make sure, but I still dont use it for valuable collectibles.
