9 REPLACEMENT LITHOS FOR THE FISHER PRICE LITTLE PEOPLE #930 PLAY FAMILY ACTION GARAGE

IMPORTANT!!

SADLY DUE to ongoing IMPATIENCE from international buyers, even during a global pandemic, when as we all know, shipping is very delayed, they are opening ITEM NOT RECEIVED disputes and EXPECTING me to TAKE FULL RESPONSIBILITY for THEIR OWN CHOICE of CHEAPER SHIPPING.  I have tried to help with costs by allowing this inexpensive shipping in the past at the buyer's risk but that is APPARENTLY NOT GOOD ENOUGH!  So I am REMOVING all shipping without FULL TRACKING to international locations other than the UNITED STATES.  This will make INTERNATIONAL SHIPPING very EXPENSIVE but can no longer be HELPED.

THANK YOU for your UNDERSTANDING. 

 

IT IS IN YOUR BEST INTEREST TO PLEASE TAKE THE TIME TO READ THE ENTIRE LISTING

 

I've SOLD QUALITY REPLACEMENT LITHOS on EBAY since MAY 2008 WITHOUT INCREASING my LISTING PRICES.

9 REPLACEMENT LITHOS FOR #930 PLAY FAMILY ACTION GARAGE


 "BLOCKOUT" STICKY BACK PAPER - WATERPROOF INK

 

                  PARKING SECTION & CAR LIFT                       NAME BANNER + ELEVATOR TOP, FRONT & SIDE



                                                                                                           GAS PUMP                                                                            

There are NO MISLEADING CLAIMS in this LISTING.

I am MERELY STATING FACTS.

I've MADE MANY IMPROVEMENTS to this REPLACEMENT LITHO SET since another LONG TIME EBAY SELLER PURCHASED it and SEVERAL OTHER REPLACEMENT LITHO SETS from me in MARCH 2009.

This SELLER is NOW a COMPETITOR. He has LISTED SEVERAL DIFFERENT REPLACEMENT LITHOS SETS UNDER an ALTERNATE MEMBER ID. He HAS CONFIRMED the MULTIPLE ITEM LISTINGS are HIS.

The TEXT in his DESCRIPTION and the ITEM LOCATION MATCH those of the LONG TIME EBAY SELLER who PURCHASED "1" SET of MY GARAGE REPLACEMENT LITHOS in a LARGE ORDER with SEVERAL DIFFERENT REPLACEMENT LITHOS in 2009.

I HAVE ADDED some COMPARISON PICTURES to EMPHASIZE my CHANGES and to POINT OUT something of INTEREST which I CAN SEE in his LISTING PICTURE.
 
MY 1ST BUYER'S RESTORED GARAGE

WITH INCORRECT NUMBER FONT REPLACEMENT
 
                     

    MODIFIED DEC 2009    MODIFIED NOV 2012             COMPARISON OF MY CURRENT VERSION


  MODIFIED APRIL 2010      FP ORIGINAL LITHO           WITH AN ORIGINAL FISHER- PRICE LITHO

  In PICTURES #1 & #2 above, the FONT for the NUMBER 2 & 3 PARKING SECTIONS is NOT the SAME as the FONT in the ORIGINAL FP LITHO. PICTURE #1 is from MY FIRST BUYER of the GARAGE REPLACEMENT LITHOS. She PURCHASED this SET OF LITHOS in JULY 2008. This 1st VERSION also has a LIGHTER & QUITE UNEVEN SHADING of the BROWN for the PARKING SECTION + the EDGE of the BROWN CIRCLE which goes around the TURNTABLE is NOT EVEN. 

 
I ENCOURAGE you to PLEASE COMPARE PICTURE #1 to the PICTURE on my COMPETITOR'S SIMILAR LISTING. His LISTING PICTURE has the SAME INCORRECT NUMBER FONT, UNEVEN BROWN SHADING & UNEVEN CIRCLE around the TURNTABLE.
 
 
 
ALL the REPLACEMENT LITHOS I have CREATED have TINY DISTINGUISHING MARKS so I WOULD BE ABLE to RECOGNIZE a COPY if NEEDED.
 
MANY of the LITHOS in his PICTURES HAVE THESE TINY DISTINGUISHING MARKS. THEY are VIRTUALLY INVISIBLE UNLESS you KNOW WHERE to LOOK.
 
 
My REPLACEMENT LITHOS are PRINTED on a PROFESSIONAL BIZHUB which is a HIGH END COMMERCIAL PRINTER. It was PURCHASED from a PRINT SHOP when the OWNER RETIRED.
 

( NOT on a HOME INKJET PRINTER )

The HUGE DIFFERENCE in the CLARITY of the GRAPHICS and the DEPTH of the COLOR BETWEEN the 2 PRINTING PROCESSES is AMAZING!!

The SCAN BELOW CLEARLY SHOWS this DIFFERENCE!!


 

The LITHOS on the LEFT were PURCHASED from a COMPETITOR on EBAY.

They were PRINTED on "TrueBlock" STICKY BACK PAPER with an INKJET PRINTER.

The LITHOS on the RIGHT are MY CURRENT REPLACEMENT LITHOS.

They were PRINTED on "BLOCKOUT" PERMANENT ADHESIVE BACK PAPER with my COMMERCIAL BIZHUB PRINTER.

 

Are you STILL WONDERING why you should PURCHASE from ME when you can get them from my COMPETITOR for a FEW DOLLARS LESS?

After all if you are going to USE them on a TOY for a CHILD to PLAY WITH the QUALITY of the GRAPHICS and the RESOLUTION of the COLOR aren't VITAL, right? 

 
HOWEVER DURABILITY is IMPORTANT in REGARD to PLAY VALUE.
 
 
CHILDREN OFTEN have WET and/or STICKY HANDS.
 
 
The TYPE of "BLOCKOUT" PERMANENT ADHESIVE BACK PAPER USE is WATER RESISTANT.
 
 
 The INK & the ADHESIVE are WATERPROOF.
  
 
I've DONE WATER TESTS to CONFIRM that if an INKJET PRINTER is USED to PRINT on this TYPE of PAPER the INK is NOT WATERPROOF!!
 

If it GETS WET the COLORS BLEED & RUN TOGETHER. NOT a PRETTY SIGHT!!

 

The 8 VIDEO CLIPS I had BEFORE to COMPARE what HAPPENS if MY REPLACEMENT LITHOS and REPLACEMENT LITHOS which are PRINTED on an INKJET PRINTER GET WET HAVE BEEN REMOVED AS PER EBAY'S NEW RULESIf you would like to VIEW the VIDEO CLIPS PLEASE ASK.  I will send you the link.
 
The RESULTS MAY SURPRISE you!!

 

SPECIAL THANKS to PREVIOUS BUYERS who would like to SHARE the EMAILS they SENT to me with THEIR PERMISSION to POST:

 

#1 Thanks for your email! I originally ordered the lithos from another member and when I got them, they were of very poor quality. The only reason that I gave them a good rating is because as soon as I emailed them saying that I was disappointed, they refunded my money without requiring me to send the lithos back. Not that I wanted them, but I didn't want the hassle of sending them back either. So they had good customer service, but a very poor product. Thanks so much - I am very happy with your customer service AND your product! Please feel free to use this email as a recommendation to future buyers!

 

#2 Hi! Just want to let you know I'm soooo happy with this litho's! My old garage is like new. So THANK YOU so much!!!

that's all :) best wishes - Katja from the Netherlands!
