So, Monday morning started like all the others. I started writing down things I had to do this week because it was gonna be a busy week full of appointments. Around 11 am I got a email from a friend from the Greenleaf forum. Emily told me that one of my houses that I sold years ago was on Craigslist in Wisconsin. At first, I pictured it to be one of my earlier houses before I was using paper clay. I pictured it to maybe one from when I first started out because I sold a few of those here in Wisconsin and Illinois. I clicked the link and was surprised because it was the McKinley dollhouse kit

I found a house on Craigslist and just spoke to the woman thru email. She asked me to make an offer on the house. I told her I wasn't really interested in the dolls or furniture, but was told she wants them out and to make an offer based on the house. She doesn't know too much about it, other then saying they look old. The pics are "Ok" I guess, but hard to make a ton out. I was wondering if anyong can take a look and let me know if they know anything about this house, Who it's made by, how old it is, If it's worth even making an offer on, and if so, what would be a fair offer without being an

I picked up a partially built Fairfield and a partially built MiniTown Loft kit off of CL. These pics are from the craigslist listing. I am not sure what I am going to do with them, but for $30 I couldn't say no. -

My latest find. This was in NE Philly on Craigslist. I got it for $40 and the guy delivered it to my hotel. Normally I take them on the plane with me as checked luggage, but since I am in a walking boot I made a stop at FedEx Office on my way to the airport. I can't wait to get started! -

This cracked me up. This was the CL listing pic. This is an old RGT (Walmer) Georgetown. The lady's grandfather gave it to her nearly 20 years ago. The box was still sealed. I seem to see a pattern in these stories...lol. I was thinking about flipping this one, then she got emotional thinking back on it and asked me to send her some pictures once I got it built. Now what do I do? -
Okay, so like many of us I have a lot of DH kits. I need to unload some in order to keep my sanity. I thought I would give forum members first crack before I throw them on eBay. A few items to know: PM's do not work. My Yahoo email address is in my profile. I am out of town on a business trip, so I may be a little slow to respond. Kits will go on a first spoken for, first go basis. Shipping will be parcel post from the Indianapolis area. We can work out the details later. I did not post pics. If you search hard enough you will find pictures of these DH's and kits. All are in the box and

Okay, not really a travel find. This pic is from the barn sale where I found my "Little Shop of Horrors" house. What you don't see in the pic is the other table of mini furniture and the box of miniature and doll books under the table. Everything to the left of the fireplace was in the shop when it was on display. She had built it as a fabric and dress shop. The lady was kicking herself as she had thrown a lot of mini items away earlier in the week because they had broken legs or other issues (not realizing someone might be able to fix and use them). There is some "Ideal" brand item -

Picked up on the way back from moving my son into his grad school apartment. The guy had it for two years and never did anything with it. The person he bought it from had done the same thing. -

This little beauty came to me through a work acquaintance. He knew I was into minis and had a friend selling a kit. I was "ambushed" outside an office in Roanoke as the guy thought I agreed to buy it. I hadn't even spoken to him. I threw a $50 figure at him thinking he would balk. I barely got the amount out before he yelled "SOLD!" It came with eight furniture kits. the sides and floors were hot glued together. I spent an hour and a half in my hotel room with a clothes iron heating it up and pulling it apart. I only uploaded one pic, but TSA put a huge amount of tape around it. It is a g -

The foundation in pieces when I was done. Another Craigslist find. This one was in Lynchburg, VA and I picked it up for $40. The stairs and foundation were hot glued. I was able to fit the stairs in my suitcase, but spent a couple of hours that night in my hotel room with a clothes iron getting the foundation apart so I could get it in the box, tape it up and check it as luggage. Foundation before and after pics are shown. They had used stone textured paint around the bottom which made my little "heat and peel apart" project a little tougher. -

Hopefully the Hofco kit I just bought will look something like this when I am done. -

My latest find. Unfortunately he had sold or given away the furniture and "goodies." This was in NE Philly on Craigslist. I got it for $40 and the guy delivered it to my hotel.
