HA! My white dog, Lady, STILL doesn’t listen to a word I say- she comes when she wants to. Fortunately, one time when I flipped a suburban and totalled my car and she jumped out the window after the dust settled less than 2 blocks from an interstate- she came when I called. Thank GOD!
She must have been so shocked by the accident she forgot she wasn’t supposed to listen to you! 😆

I’m the same way, I only put the collar on my dog when I’m taking her for a walk. But every once in a while I start thinking that I should have her wear it when I let her out in the yard… What if she got loose and she didn’t have her collar on!
The thing is I share a yard with 4 other appartments and sometimes the other people don’t close the fence properly. I try to always check if it is closed when I let her out, but sometimes I forget.
One time I remembered I hadn’t checked and when I went to see, the door was open and my dog was standing right outside the yard looking towards the street! I was so happy that she came when called! It was at a time in her life when she obeyed commands only indoors, when we were outside she forgot all her training.
To me, the worst about these types of scams is that those sellers seem to think that buyers are all stupid and cannot do any checking on their own 😡
I don’t really mind a seller trying to get a few more dollars on the shipping, I’ll just call it a handling fee and be fine with it, but some of these sellers just get greedy. It probably makes no difference in the end, since the items do end up selling, but I refuse to bid on an item when I feel I’m being cheated!

That helps to give balance if you don’t want the eye color alienated from the rest of the paint job.I don’t really see that it is absolutely necessary to pick up the eye color in the paint job, as long as the colors complement each other. For example, there is no red whatsoever on the emeralds or the golds and they still look great with the red eyes.
However if you do like blue, there is no reason for you not to use it…
With the retirement of the Peacock color, comes the side effect that the Spectral Dragon (sitting) is no longer available at all… With that in mind, is there any chance that he will be offered in another color any time soon?
There was only one on ebay since October 10th and she sold for $89.99.
The current production dragon do tend to sell for less because it’s people looking for a bargain who bid on them… But there have been surprises in the past.
If she is precious to you, just be sure to put a good reserve on her… You don’t want to see her go for peanuts!
Really, in my opinion, you would be better off keeping her and buying the griffin from a store that does lay-away. There are several of them on here!
Reading about your storage space problem in another topic has brought this question to mind: Are you done clearing out really old stored items or might we expect some nice surprises on ebay in the future like the black and tan family or the wedding cake family?
And about the black and tan family… If the info in the ebay gallery is correct, there is still one family left to sell, besides the one you’re keeping as paint samples. Is that right?

Thanks as well Jade, but (see previous message) I am taking a break from buying! I don’t have a choice: I have no more money 😆 Actually, what I mean is that I have no more dragon money, not that I’m in the poor house! 😉

Boy, I have to take a break now! I bought 4 retired fledglings in the last 2 weeks!
Now I’m only missing the brown and the black gold… And any others Melody comes up with… I heard rumors of a green one?
Black Gold is still current, so that should be easy to find. I think there may be one on eBay if you didn’t want to buy from a dealer. I can get you one if you do.
Thanks Emerald, but I will be taking a break from buying for a while. I try, repeat TRY, to buy only one dragon every 3 months but got those 4 because they were retired and happened to pop up on ebay recently! But when I am ready for the black gold, I will definitely buy from one of you dealers on the Forum, I much prefer to give my business to someone I know! 😉

CherylKaufman wrote:No, no it’s okay- I just thought that was a little low of someone especially since it wasn’t their topic and while it may have been a second thought on their part of “oh, that’d be nice to have” it was a “I REALLY want this” on my part. I’ll just grumble about it, become bitter, then just never post again.
Just kidding.
Well if in fact, and I do repeat IF, someone from the Forum bought it after seeing this topic, I really feel that it’s a cheap trick to pull!
After all, the link was posted specifically in reply to Cheryl’s request. And it’s not like ebay where I feel it’s perfectly fair, if you’re willing to pay more, that the highest bidder gets the prize.
Well, I’m in Montreal and yesterday I just gave up! It would take forever to load and even going back to a previous page was endless.

I saw, there’s another one just named Guest URL/URL something…
GB: if you look in the gallery and ask for most recent comments (or something like that) you’ll see both of them!

Ski, why are you bidding on this one? It’s exactly the same as the one I traded you…
