Relisting...New bears coming Sunday, May 26th!
Please meet Betsy, an awesome and HUGE Artist Teddy bear by Lori Pappas of Lori Belle Designs in Mooresville, North Carolina!!! She just has her tush tag. I believe she's from the mid 2000's. She is made of a creamy blond fur with touches of light brown (maybe fox? I'm not a fur person, but it's a very long fiber). She has piercing black glass eyes and a black molded button nose and black mouth stitching. Her paw pads are dark tan ultrasuede. She wears a cocoa brown bow with her name embroidered on it. She is medium stuffed and very huggable. She is one big, beautiful Teddy bear! She is five-way jointed and in excellent, pristine condition. Betsy is an incredible 20 inches tall and weighs 1 pound, 13 ounces. Could she be the one for you??? A bear of simple tastes, she is looking for where she can be easily satisfied with the best! :0)
Please note: Upon payment, I ship the next business day. Whenever possible, my items will now be sent out USPS Ground Advantage, which is much less expensive than Priority Mail, but slightly slower, by a day or two. Occasionally I use my personal discounted FedEx account as well for larger, heavier items. If you'd like me to send something Priority, please let me know.
With
regret, I am downsizing my teddy bear collection. I have many
different types, which I will be listing in the coming weeks (or months
or maybe even years). For the most part, I relist all the bears that don't get adopted the first time around on the last Saturday of the month. I live
in a smoke-free home, but I do have cats who are barred from the bear
room and bunny room(!).
Names,
names, names: If I'm listing an animal crafted by an artist, sometimes
due to unforeseen circumstances (don't ask), I do not know his or her
proper name. I simply rename them using my own imagination (which is
admittedly quite active). This is not a slight to the talented artist
who created them or meant to confuse the collector...just a way to give
them a bit of personality and to have a little fun! (Feel
free to change their name and protect the innocent!)
A quick note about shipping: Don't you hate it when you're overcharged by a seller on shipping???? A gazillion dollars to cross the pond or go across the country. It's ridiculous. I am striving to be accurate in my listing, but sometimes ebay's calculator is way off (especially for those outside the U.S.). When i calculate shipping, I add in extra weight for the box. If you're interested in an item outside the U.S., don't be scared by what the calculator is telling you. Please contact me and I'll find out exactly what it would cost to post to your country and make a note in the listing. I'll never overcharge you. If I quote you a number and i can get it to you cheaper, I'll immediately refund the difference.
Please note I am not an expert in teddy bears...I am only downsizing. Please feel free to contact me with any questions.
Please see pictures. They are part of the description. Additional pictures on request.
Payment is due within THREE days of auction end. Combined shipping is always available. I only charge actual shipping costs. If it turns out the shipping estimator is wrong above $1, I will refund you the difference.
I am willing to ship internationally, but please ask if I post to your country and what it would cost BEFORE you bid, as it could be very expensive. Ebay's calculator can be off either too high or too low!

Thank you for looking at my auction
