Congrats on the good sale!
Donna, we have a great vintage game and toy place in Cleveland (right down the street from our Mongolian BBQ!) called Big Fun http://www.coventryvillage.org/shops/bigfun/BigFun.html
If you really want the game, you might give them a call and see if they have it or might be able to get it. But these are priced to sell to nostalgic folks, not to resell at a profit.
They have so many toys that I had as a kid and I wonder if my old My Little Pony toys, etc. would go for that much! We held onto those for so long, but mom might have finally given them away. Either that or packed them up for future grandchildren to play with... in which case, sorry future kids, momma will buy you new ponies because her vintage ones are worth something
Top of the Mornin Starry,
Oh I'd love going in that store..imagine right down from a Mongolian Grill, too. <smile>
I can find the game on eBay and online, but I just don't want to pay the prices that they're going for. I'll have to give this place a call and hope they have it for at least half of what it sells for online.
I still have a rubbermaid container filled with My Little Pony/Polly Pockets and such. They're up in the attic and marked Hannah for when she's older and wants them back. Beside that sits another container filled with Barbie's. And another filled with Batman and so on and and so on.
The biggest thing I've packed away for eventual grandchildren are books. I kept so many of the children's books to share. I think that'll make it more special telling my grandchildren that I used to read this book to your mother/father.
That's years away though. (hopefully 5 or 6)
Hope all finds you well. I know you're happy to be back home away from the warm and humid Florida atmosphere.
<smile>
Take care,
Donna
