Title: A Few Places For Cheap 80's Stuff


purplestar - January 20, 2005 03:59 AM (GMT)
Hi there ladies...and gents if there are any here. I have a couple of sites bookmarked that I check out all the time.

I will try to put an actual link, but if you don't know by now, I am terrible at technical stuff

http://www.pranceatron.com/toys/home.html
If the links aren't there, just search for Prancetron toys. I have ordered from her. Very fast shipping, offers discounts on purchases over $10.00. Lots of bits and pieces. I got 2 SSC dolls that she described as having VDS, and I can't see a spot anywhere. Very satisfied.

I can't get to poseable place's homepage, but buck50toys is working fine. You could just search for that. I have not ordered from here but that is only because I haven't looked through everything yet. They have a TON of stuff...books and toys from the 80's, little pieces and accessories for anything. And nothing costs more than $1.50. Worth a look if you need some odds and ends, especially.

:wave Have fun!
I checked them out and everything works!

I found another place...there's not a lot available for SSC or MLP, but a few things that I haven't seen anywhere else, like popples, pound puppies.

Thanks to a tip from Melanie... I just made my first purchase from the buck50 site. So, I'll let you all know how it goes!

OMG!! I LOVE the buck 50 toys!!

I actually bought and did a trade with her already--she's great

purplestar - January 25, 2005 04:13 AM (GMT)
I just ordered a bunch of MLP bits from buck50toys. I recognize her other name..rescue me toys..from ebay. I'm confident that all will be well. i find that when I order stuff from peoples pages instead of ebay I get it way, way faster.

Shellberry Shortcake - January 25, 2005 04:45 AM (GMT)
yea--I actually just re-ordered some items from her--she seems very nice & I am confident that although I haven't gotten anything from her in a while--I will have no trouble getting my most recent items....

Berryblue - January 25, 2005 05:42 PM (GMT)
That is really great to know.
Please post and let us know how your transactions turn out.
This is always great and helpful to have available for everyone
Thanks!! :)

Shellberry Shortcake - January 25, 2005 08:43 PM (GMT)
yes- I will definately post when the stuff arrives

(thumbs up smiley ) :D

Just wantd to let you all know that my items from Alison were shipped today & she gave me a tracking number on them :wave

1u11aby1ambie - January 29, 2005 02:54 AM (GMT)
I got my box of stuff from Alison/buck50 site! It came pretty quickly. I don't think I got a tracking number, but it came fast enough that I hadn't thought to check my email to look for it!

edit: I just checked that email (the one I use for paypal) & I don't see the tracking number there, but I normally delete my junk mail file without opening it... maybe I deleted it by accident.

Shellberry Shortcake - January 29, 2005 05:28 AM (GMT)
hey Joyce--mine came via the paypal email......

say...what did you get from her?


I'm dying to know, lol--as she is where I got the VERY RARE pieces to the 1991 maple stirrup/oatsmobile..

1u11aby1ambie - January 29, 2005 08:53 AM (GMT)
I got CPK shoes and the madame alexander groom doll. I got her email, but there was no tracking number in it?

Shellberry Shortcake - January 29, 2005 09:29 PM (GMT)
oohh! CPK shoes-how cool.

as long as you got email from her I think you are safe.....


I got a couple ss things--and I don't remember what else, lol

Shellberry Shortcake - February 1, 2005 10:05 PM (GMT)
ok--just wanted to let you all know that I got my items in today from buck 50 toys--funny though. the tracking number on the printed out shipping label was all blacked out?
don't know why that happened....
One of the items I ordered wasn't available--but I did get a credit + a .50 cent credit for the 'trouble' :wave

purplestar - February 15, 2005 07:23 PM (GMT)
I got my stuff from buck50 toys, no problems..and from Prancetron, also no problem. Prancetron is in Canada so it got to me really fast. I also ordered from Tabby's Toy extravaganza with no problems. I actually just put in a second order there.

So far I have had pretty good experiences/luck with ordering online. :carebear

Shellberry Shortcake - February 19, 2005 05:49 AM (GMT)
oh! It's good to know that your stuff arrived ok...

makes me feel like ordering from prancetron now...
whistle whistle..LOL
