I need to plan a visit, as I haven't seen it. It's wonderful! I was there a couple of years ago when they were also having their sale. Mom lives in Tempe and my brother, who lives in Scottsdale, used to live in Tucson. Both are suburbs of Phoenix. We all drove down to Tucson to see both. It was well worth the visit. Phoenix Miniatures are having their show and sale this weekend. http://phoenixminiatures.com/2019-miniature-show-sale/ I wish I could go. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maudeflanagan Posted March 6, 2019 Share Posted March 6, 2019 This isn't a normal sales site, but I just bumped into this: https://www.reddit.com/r/Dollhouses/comments/awlnwe/hello_i_am_seeking_wise_counsel_on_my_mothers/ I suggested in the comments they post it for sale on this forum. I feel like this is a loving place to sell a dollhouse with people who really know their stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's so cute - I like everything - colors and furniture - and would keep it as is. I hope it finds the right person. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

minilover62 Posted March 7, 2019 Share Posted March 7, 2019 Fancy Houseworks windows and doors lot outside of Chicago. I don't understand everything that the seller is saying on this post, but if anyone is close and likes this style it might be worth to try to figure it out. https://lasalle.craigslist.org/mat/d/kewanee-dollhouse-parts/6833957187.html 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mid-life madness Posted March 7, 2019 Share Posted March 7, 2019 @minilover62 That garage looks remarkably similar to my husbands.....I hope some guy isn't selling off his wife's stuff! Probably more likely he bought a storage container and uses english as a second language! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mid-life madness Posted March 7, 2019 Share Posted March 7, 2019 @minilover62 I am sorry, I am just joking. I live in Las Vegas, no where near Chicago, it is not my stuff. I think it is legitimate. It looks very dusty like it was in a storage container. Go for it, but be safe! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't get the feeling from the posting that this is somebody who would ship it to you either. I love those windows. Carmen, are you the same person who likes those Northeastern 1:144 kits? Did you see the recent listing for the Beacon Hill and 2 other kits? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
minilover62 Posted March 7, 2019 Share Posted March 7, 2019 Plus the shipping could be expensive these days! Yes, I am! I already have all the kits, but I am watching for some other people that are still hunting for some kits, like my friend Donna that needs the Seaside kit and the Victorian Bay kit. I saw the trio and I was bidding but it got too high for my blood! It sold for over $130! One kit that I would like is the Savannah from Laser Tech.

Mid-life madness Posted March 7, 2019 Share Posted March 7, 2019 I bid too....Someone sniped it! The seller should have listed them separately, he probably would have made more money overall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pivot Posted March 8, 2019 Share Posted March 8, 2019 I am trying without success to get my hands on Alison Jr in milled plywood. The few sites I’ve found either don’t respond to questions or only have mdf. Superior Dollhouse supposedly has them at 140 above retail but I can’t get ahold of them. Any tricks you guys have to find retired kits? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
