NOTE: We spend a lot of time and have a lot of fun writing every Description, Taking Photos and giving you other Important Information! So, PLEASE READ EVERYTHING and you shouldn't have any questions! But, If you do, don't hesitate to ask - WE CHECK EMAIL REGULARLY!
I Measure Trolls From the Bottom of their Feet to the Highest "RUBBER/PLASTIC" Point (Tips of Ears or the Top of Forehead)! Any Scratches, Cracks or other Things (THAT ARE BEYOND NORMAL PLAY OR WEAR AND TEAR) that might lower the value of a Troll will be mentioned in the Description!
IF YOU DON'T DO ANYTHING ELSE, PLEASE BLOW UP THE PICTURES THAT MY HUBBY TAKES! HE WORKS VERY HARD AT MAKING THEM AS TRUE TO COLOR AND NEAT AS POSSIBLE AND THIS TROLL IS VERY COOL! NOTE: CERTAIN COLORS OF TROLL EYES GLOW ODDLY IN THE CAMERA FLASH SO, UNLESS MENTIONED, THERE IS NOTHING WRONG WITH THEM!
This is an AWESOME 8 1/2" Tall x 7" Long Vintage DAM Donkey Troll! She has her Beautiful Original Amber Handblown Glass Eyes and, due to the fact that she was seriously lacking in the hair department, I decided on some beautiful Cream Colored Curly (sort of Rasta looking) Tibetan Lambswool for her Mane and Tail! She came out looking AMAZING and is now a very happy donkey! Her Left Front Hoof is marked ©DAM THINGS EST 1964 and there is a bit of Pink Marker on it. There is some Black Sharpie looking Marker on the bottom of her Right front Hoof, but as you won't be standing her on her head for display, neither will be seen. She had a thorough Bath and really looks HEEEEEEEEEEEEEE HAWWWWWWWWW ishly Wonderful! A superb addition to anyone's troll collection and, if you like the animals as much as I do, you know this one is a bit hard to come by! But here she is looking for a new, FOREVER home because I only have room for one and keeping two would make me a Troll Donkey Pig which I certainly don't want to be LOL! Remember, we do allow payment plans - just ask!
Adoption is simple - see the picture, fall in love and make plans to have this troll sent from our house to your house! This Troll would be a great addition to your collection or to that of a troll loving friend! And, if this troll ever gets "issues" such as really bad hair or eyes or, if you have other trolls "in need", I also restore trolls back to their original condition - or I make trolls based on your fondest memories - see paragraph below for more information!
And, if this isn't the troll for which you were looking, go to View My Other Items For Sale or Visit My eBay Store and keep looking! We have over 300 already "up for adoption" and hundreds still to list - DAMS, RUSS, ACEs, NORFINs, WISHNIKs and always a selection of DAMANIMALS and "different" trolls Newer and Vintage! You're bound to find one that steals your heart!
IF YOU NEED A LITTLE EXTRA TIME TO PAY FOR THIS TROLL, OR WOULD LIKE AN ALTERNATIVE PAYMENT CHOICE OR, IF YOU LIVE IN A COUNTRY TO WHICH WE DON'T SHIP, NOTIFY US THROUGH EBAY'S EMAIL FOR YOUR OPTIONS!
You are also welcome to Visit My eBay Store or View My Other Items For Sale.

PLEASE BE SURE TO PAT THE "TRIBBLE", the little Dog who Guards our Storefront on your way in and out - she claims she can feel each one here at home and that they are good luck - who am I to argue with "the TRIBBLE?"
PLEASE FEEL FREE TO MAKE OFFERS ON OUR ITEMS! Our prices are not set in Stone... or Die Cast, Silver, Gold, Rubber or Anything Else for that matter - offer away - YOU JUST MAY BE SURPRISED TO FIND THAT WE ACCEPT MANY OFFERS - But, Please Do Not Make an Offer if You Do Not Intend to Pay for it if we Accept!
REGARDING FEEDBACK: We leave feedback for you AFTER YOU PAY FOR YOUR ITEM! Therefore, when you receive your item, please do the same for us! We work hard for our reputation as honest and honorable sellers, but you don't have to take my word for it, you can always take a moment to View My Feedback IF YOU HAVE A PROBLEM WITH AN ITEM, PLEASE EMAIL US BEFORE LEAVING FEEDBACK! We will ALWAYS work with you to find a solution to a problem - A HAPPY CUSTOMER IS A REPEAT CUSTOMER!
PLEASE NOTE: All of our items come from a PET AND SMOKE FRIENDLY HOME (that means that WE HAVE 4 dogs and a CAT and I SMOKE) - So PLEASE DON'T BUY SOMETHING AND THEN LEAVE NEGATIVE FEEDBACK! We always put a piece of a dryer sheet in with your item AND/OR SPRAY EACH ITEM WITH FABREZE which helps to eliminate or soak up odors from Fragrances to strong chemical spells to Smoke! If you are not fond of fragrances, then, when you receive your troll, give him or her some time in fresh air and he or she should be fine!
THANKS AND PLEASE HAVE FUN IN OUR STORE! HAPPY SPRING! FROM KARTHIA & DAVE, THE TRIBBLE, HER 3 CANINE FRIENDS, 1 FELINE "FRENEMY" AND OUR TWO "NOT SO LITTLE ... GOATS!
WE PREFER PAYPAL but sometimes we accept other forms of payment PROVIDING YOU CONTACT US FIRST!
ALSO, if you NEED EXTRA TIME TO PAY, let us know rather than just leaving us "wondering" because we WILL open a case if items are not paid for within a reasonable time (we always wait 5 days for your payment before taking further action) and we do not hear from you!
Shipping: We ship to US, Canada, the UK, Germany and Europe. If you are from outside one of those areas and want to buy something, PLEASE EMAIL US and we will see if we can work it out!
INTERNATIONAL BUYERS: Please note that we are shipping only First Class Internationally. If you want something shipped more securely or quickly, please contact us with the understanding that you are responsible for any additional costs! ALL INTERNATIONAL SALES HAVE SHIPPING COSTS!

PLEASE NOTE: When LEAVING FEEDBACK, the Detailed Seller Rating for Shipping Time asks "HOW QUICKLY DID THE SELLER SHIP THE ITEM" - NOT - "HOW QUICKLY DID THE CARRIER GET IT TO YOU"!-----Our little Local Post Office does not always scan packages, so even though we or Paypal will send you a tracking #, sometimes items can't actually be tracked until delivered when they must be scanned! But we ALWAYS SHIP ON TIME (OR EARLIER WHEN POSSIBLE) - so if you feel your package is overdue, feel free to contact us!
ALL OF OUR ITEMS ARE BUY IT NOW/MAKE OFFER (WITH AN OCCASIONAL AUCTION) AND ALL OUR ITEMS HAVE FREE STANDARD DOMESTIC SHIPPING! WE HOPE THIS WORKS WELL FOR YOU!

HELLO SHOPPERS!
We started out doing this primarily for fun, but had SO MUCH FUN that we are now doing it FULL TIME! That, however, does not change the fact that we still have fun and want YOUR EXPERIENCE TO BE FUN AS WELL!
We still believe (98.73% of the time) that the Customer is Right AND the Tribble (our little Mascot Dog who "guards" our vitual store even while sleeping on the bed) will bite US if WE don't treat YOU properly!
IF YOU PURCHASE AN ITEM WHICH HAS BEEN MISREPRESENTED OR WE ACTUALLY GOOFED IN THE LISTING, CONTACT US IMMEDIATELY AND WE WILL TAKE CARE OF THE SITUATION IN THE WAY THAT WORKS FOR BOTH OF US! Please don't leave poor feedback first and THEN contact us - that makes it more difficult for us to work WITH you and that is our goal - to work together for a satisfying buyer/seller relationship!
OUR REPUTATION FOR BEING RELIABLE AND HONEST SELLERS IS SO IMPORTANT TO US that we will ALWAYS FIND A SOLUTION to FIX A PROBLEM that was OUR FAULT (or maybe even Yours?!?), in order to make YOU - our CUSTOMER, HAPPY!
We are very EZ TO DEAL WITH - but we wouldn't have it any other way! We love what we're doing and we can only continue with YOUR PARTICIPATION!
We are always adding NEW & COOL items to our store - New Jewelry (often VERY BLINGY AND FUN), Vintage Jewelry, Vintage and "newer" Trolls, Gently used Watches, more Die Cast Cars of all types and soon (we've been saying that for over a year) a variety of Antiques & Collectibles from my Antique Dealer AND Collector Mother's Estate, so please check back often!
KARTHIA IS ALSO STARTING TO BOTH RESTORE VINTAGE TROLLS FOR OTHER PEOPLE, AND ALSO WILL MAKE YOU WHAT SHE CALLS A "MEMORY TROLL" A CLOSE FACSIMILE USING A VINTAGE DAM BODY WITH NEW EYES (IF NECESSARY) AND YOUR CHOICE OF ZILLIONS OF MOHAIR COLORS - OF THAT FAVORITE TROLL THAT YOU NO LONGER HAVE .... OR A SPECIAL ORDER FOR A FRIEND or YOURSELF (RECENTLY FINISHED A LITTLE 2 1/2" DAM WITH DARK PURPLE HAIR AND LIGHT PURPLE DOCTOR'S SCRUBS FOR A CLIENT - SO THE SKY IS THE LIMIT! You can use the phone number shown in "CONTACT US" to contact her for information, general trolly chat and pricing - sometimes trolls have to be "seen" for an exact price as they are all different!
THANKS TO EACH AND EVERY CUSTOMER and EACH AND EVERY FUTURE CUSTOMER - in advance! WE APPRECIATE YOU!
If you need to email us, each Listing has two Links to eBay's email system. The first is located at the top of the page near the seller information: - "Click on the red "ME" which will take you to our home page where it says "contact seller". And the second is located in each listing at the absolute bottom on the left and is a tiny blue "ask question" link . Clicking on that will also send us an email through eBay's email system.
If you have difficulty reaching us or we don't respond with 2 days AT THE MOST for some reason (we check email all the time, so that shouldn't happen), please CALL OR TEXT Karthia at 970-361-6221 (Colorado - Mountain Time AFTER 1pm our time, please)! If you only have a landline, just call quickly, leave your name and number and she will call you back ASAP! PLEASE DO NOT ABUSE THIS CONVENIENCE OR WE WILL HAVE TO STOP IT!
So, obviously we believe that almost anything can be handled with mutual COMMUNICATION or I would not be listing my number - I'm sure eBay will stop that eventually to, but we are the only Groteys in Grand Junction, CO. and that phonebook is also on your computer!
