Craigslist: Mother Load Of Decorations

[melwelch]

What about us splitting it up??? A group buy. I am interested in some of the blow molds... Santa taking flight... Nativity... etc

What would be a good guess at how to break up the total amount... Example.. for extention cords ??%... Lights??% Blow molds ??%.... Misc ??% etc... I have not see it so just speculation... What we do no want we sell at the convention and split it with the people in the group buy...

I may be interested in going in on it but it would help to have a complete list of what is for sale instead of just some pictures. I don't see a trailer load of blowmolds there and definantly not $800 worth. I would offer maybe $600. Most of those I have. I would be interested in that nativity also but if someone else wants it I won't put up a big fight. Not interested in any lights or extension cords just da molds.

I tend to agree with you Brad. I bought my first load similar to this one for $650. Lights to me don't have much value and extention cords I could take 'em or leave 'em. Hence the reason the owner won't split the collection up. The less valuable stuff is worthless without the valuable.

So how can we split this up?

I'm in for $200 that's 1/4 of the molds, cords, lights etc. Molds I definately want: 3 choir angels, 2 choir boy/girl, 5-6 yet to be named
Al wants the reindeer and a Santa
Carl wants Mrs Claus
Brad wants the nativity: 3 wisemen, 3 nativity, 6 animals, 2 camel, stable and 1 shepherd. (correct me if I'm wrong)
whats left: 3 candy canes, 2 standing bear, 2 soldiers, 3 asst. snowmen, 4 standing deer, and a couple I can't make out. plus 3/4 of everything else.

[Brad Caudill]

Ted, can you post the pictures of the stuff in storage? I wouldn't mind having those standing deer. If I just get blowmolds that is fine with me. I say that but I will probably see stuff I want in the other stuff. And how can we get this to the convention? Is it near it?

[Al in Raleigh]

Brad, you should let know have one of the wisemen. That would be the first wiseman ever in his house. That's why John doesn't have a nativity scene. He couldn't find 3 wisemen or a virgin.

[Brad Caudill]

lol.... soo many comments soo little time

[tallan]

Ok some more PICs.... Sorry work is keeping me way to busy. Ok the lights here they are well 1/2 of them the other 1/2 is behind them they are 2 deep.



And some of the blow molds.....





Sorry this one is a little blurry.

[tallan]

Well I don't recall seeing pictures of 6 angles? Anyway most of them are still in the boxes. He did have 2 nativity sets one was big as well like 4 foot high or so. They were in one of the pictures off to the left I believe.

The lights are all shapes and sizes as well, c9's c7's and c5's plus mini's, icicles and swags and in all colors. Now all we have to do is buy them up.

Seeing more stuff now than was previously mentioned. Would love to see a complete listing. I may have to get Uhual now. lol

[Brad Caudill]

So I hear this wasn't the mother load it was led on to be. I don't have full details but I hear several things are mysteriously missing. Arrgggh

[Carl B Zachary]

Yes the trumpeting Angels in tallan's picture , Mrs Claus and a second Nativity were missing. Donna and I think his wife sold them.

[scottmcl]

Lol... He won't sell it in pieces, but his wife is selling off bit by bit... Too funny. Hope y'all get what you want from them!!

[Brad Caudill]

Looks like I will get most of what I wanted. Still looks like a good amount of molds. I am sure the lights were worth a good amount too just I didn't need any. lol
