Am I missing something?? I still don’t see how buying and reselling a
Special ebay piece… Effects anyone but the person who is the highest
Bidder…. I think its almost a give in… That you won’t be getting
More than you paid…. I’m sure there are a few exceptions.If your willing to pay top dollar for a peice that you know you might
Be taking a loss on…. I’m not seeing how this effects anyone
Other than the original owner. **shrugs**Kalandra
I am not pointing fingers at anyone, so no one person take offense, but there seems to be a trend as of late, last couple of months anyway, of people buying eBay Windstones and within a month or two turning around and selling them. At time this is without even taking them out of the box they were shipped in, heck as far as I know they do not even open the box to look at the piece.
I am confused why this would even be a concern to you???… I am sure every collector has a reason for letting go of a piece they they ended up being the high bidder on.
I personally know of a few collectors who paid a lot for special Ebay Windstone’s,
only to get them, and not be fully happy with them. Maybe the piece didn’t meet their expectations, and never grew on them enough to keep.
For Me, I have bought many Windstone’s, and I have sold many more… Only the most special one’s to me, stay!! (this could be Gb’s, LP’s, production, or Special pieces.)
I don’t think it’s up to anyone to judge what other collectors do with their Windstones, I am sure its personal for EVERY collector and if they want to buy them and turn around and sell them they can!
How can you make the assumption that people don’t even take the pieces out of the boxes or for that matter even open the boxes?? Now I’m confused!! Not offended, just confused.

Yeah, he has alot of violet, I added two more pictures… the indoor one shows the violet.
I will have to email the former owner…and ask if she has the COA.

No letter came with him…. the girl I got him from knew very little about him.

I have been on the forum for years.. but I rarely post anymore… I just had to chime in on this:
Yes, my children have busted me!
Yes, I do hide my new WS’s from the hubby… I try to plan the shipping around when he will be here.
When he does notice a new WS, I will says something like “Oh thats been here forever, and you just never noticed” ~ It seems to work.
I have an area I display my griffins, dragons, unicorns, and Misc. WS’s.. There are 20 In this display cabinet. My husband has said, I am only allowed to keep what can be displayed in this area. (Which really means for every one he can see, there are two more he cant see)
(My hubbys knows I love them, and they bring me joy… but he has a hard time understanding how much they cost…and they dont do anything, The kids will ask..”why cant we play with mommy’s WS’s”… and hubby replys ” they are not for playing, they are just to looks at”) ~ Rolls eyes!!
I am less like a deer in headlights, but more like I cant understand english, let alone speak it! “Kay, No hablo español.”
For those of you who have significant others who gladly buy you WS’s count your blessings 😛
