Blue Cavern

I went to pick up my smurfy auction today... I'm sooooooo happy!! It turned out so much better than I could have hoped for!! here are some pictures... i have not sorted through the singles yet to see what variations are in there, but I will as soon as the kids let me go hide in my cabinet corner!!
Anyway what I am most happy about is the rocking horse variation with the rubber band. It is even the original box where they show the smurf with rubber band reigns. One of the bands broke out of his hand, but I can live with that. The horse does not have the holes either where the reigns usually sit, just a groove.. he is made in hong kong.
Also I found some very nice surprises hidden in the smurfs that I was not expecting as you can see from the pictures..
Also I got a almost complete moon set (YIPPIEEEEEEEEE) and a complete smurfette bedroom, (i had to put her together and parts are still in there original bag) another yippieeeeee...
i'm going to try and make room on the table where they are all sitting and take more pictures..
but I'm a very happy smurfer today!!!

Just look at all those little treasures ! You must be really happy Gerda, it has been an excellent buy, what you have shown already must be worth more than what you paid anyway ! That's before you get to the rest !

Well done again !

woohooo.. my mom just came and picked up all the kids.. I'm home alone with my smurfs!!!

anyway..

more pictures

Wow Gerda! That is some haul! You are going to pinch yourself when you wake up tomorrow to see if you dreamt it all! Congratulations on an absolute bargain!

Has Christmas come early Gerda ?

It gets Better !

Hi Lacey..
Great lot.
It's either the moon car or the go kart. they almost look the same except the moon car has a box on the back and the go kart has a motor.


gerda

.......wow congrats!! and i am SOOOO jealous!!

Hi Gerda, wow Friday came around quick didn't it, probably just as well because you must have so excited the last few days.

That is an incredible haul there with some stunning smurfs in it. I am so happy to hear that the moon set has so many pieces and the baseball smurfette, praying smurfs etc. are fab by themselves without even thinking about the rest. I know you must have also been so happy to get the Applause bedroom set, it is such a nice item. The ceramics and plush smurfs are great too, no wonder you were desperate to get rid of the kids!

Can't wait to hear more about all those goodies.

Oh Gerda, your my hero for saving all of those lovely smurfs. And the nice ones in the first picture. I think I would have fainted.
Fantastic buy.

Tam

I'm very happy for you Gerda. We've all had some bad experiences on Ebay over the last 12 or so months but this hopefully makes up for them all.

I love those Ceramic Smurfs

However there are so many expensive and hard to find smurfs in there that I am wondering whether it was actually your Mom that picked up the kids or just the first person that came along that was willing to take them away while you sorted through them...lol.

What an amazing lot you have there. You should be able to sell off the doubles and get some money back whilst keeping the great items you don't have......I am sure it's gonna be one hell of a bargain in the end.

Congratulations

Off to call my parents to make sure it was them!!

I didn't take pictures yet of the mugs that where in the lot too, they are the collectors mugs with boxes so I'm happy about that. And it's small, but very happy to have them.. two little posters. They are actually the last two little ones I needed and now I have the whole set. (they came in cereal boxes when the smurfs where big!!) I wil have to take pictures of them later..
And not to mention the collectors display.. now my smurfs have room.
I also talked with the guy, it was his wife that collected the smurfs and the display was a store display that was not sold to customers, when the smurfs where done the store sold it to whomever ask for it!!

gerda

Wow Gerda what an amazing lot you won !! It looks as it was well worth the price !! You did great !!! Have fun going through all your new smurfs


Margaret

Also I found some very nice surprises hidden in the smurfs that I was not expecting as you can see from the pictures..

Nice surprises does not describe those smurfs in the first pic!! I'm with Tam - you're my hero too

Wow, that's a very nice batch of smurfs & smurf items you have there..!

Wow!!!! very very nice! It's always so nice to get a big lot like this!!! But this one is particularly awesome!!!

Well done!!

Hi Gerda, actually, there was a mistake--I was the winner of that auction. But, hey, you know, I don't want to break your heart or anything. Just send me the astrosmurf set and I'll let the rest go.

Because that's what a fine fellow I am.

WOW!

*note to self - you do not need the spend the rest of the night searching the web for similar smurf bargins*

I'm really happy for you, Gerda!
