Last year you may remember my awesome Stitch backpack find that I flipped $5 for $65 - if you missed the post you can read about it HERE.
So a couple of weeks ago I met a lady who had an entire collection (yes collection) of Little Einsteins toys for sale on CL for the low price of $30! I wish I'd taken a pic of all the toys together but it was a very large bag that included the much coveted PAT PAT ROCKET complete with figures, a Transform and Go Rocket, some plush, books and a bunch of bath toys! I currently have the rocket listed for $109.95 on eBay and hoping it sells quickly, that would be a nice pay day, although I have had a few quick flips that have already made me my original investment back!
So what else was in the lot?
June and Rocket plush beanie toys - sold for $17 with free shipping the second day after being listed!
A set of figures and a rocket bath toy for $25 with free shipping - sold within 2 hours of listing!
Transform and Go Rocket with Leo figure sold for $37 the day after listing.
I've got a couple of singing dolls, the bath toys, Pat Pat Rocket and a set of cake topper figures also listed currently, I really hope it all sells so keep your fingers crossed for me! I have found LE stuff before but never of this magnitude! Although I'm a little worried about the condition of the figures, they were very well played with but everything still works!
My "Be Picky, Sell Quicky" rule is still running strong. I have had a few other good sales and I finally went through my storage area and pulled out all items I've had longer than a year. Some are being donated, gifted on the Buy Nothing group and all my vintage items are going to the booth space I've decided to open. Now I just need to find a local antique mall and display pieces so I can get this thing started, after cleaning out my space I have realized I have a TON of great vintage that would be perfect in a booth space and I'm really excited about this new prospect!
Great score! I was lucky enough to find a little Einsteins Leo doll new in the box at my local thrift store for $3. I was able to sell it for over $40.
ReplyDeleteWow that is awesome! I am always looking for new in the box Disney toys, seems like the value just skyrockets then!! :)
DeleteI will NEVER forget your stich post. I have always been on the lookout for him ever since you posted him.
ReplyDeleteWow, great find of little einsteins... Every little einsteins find I have had, has ended up either missing pieces or being broken... but everytime I have still been able to sell whatever it was for a nice profit. I currently have the transform and go "replacement parts" listed :)
Great finds and great sales !!
It doesn't seem to matter if they are broken people go gaga for Einsteins and will pay high! I still look for Stitch too Ashley and have yet to come across another one; I never pass up the backpack section at the thrifts, you never know!
DeleteDo you have any little Einstein toys left? I would be willing to purchase a lot for 2 year old daughter.
ReplyDeleteEverything I have left is up on eBay! I still have my Pat Pat Rocket, some bath toys and a couple of dolls!
DeleteMy husband comes home for lunch break everyday and looks for craigslist deals. We pass on most things, but recently we grabbed a GI JOE aircraft carrier for a great deal. It's hard to sell, but someday it will sell for good money. I live in rural area, so craigslist is hard to do here. I loved it in the city.
