Is it better to sell my things on Craigslist or eBay?

Posted on 04. Nov, 2010 by Toy Expert.

I have some toy trains I want to sell, they are used but I am selling them in sets and they are in pretty okay condition. I have around 00 worth of trains and track and accessories and I am expecting to pick up at least 0 from selling all of it at the very least. So which would be better? Craigslist or eBay?

Mice supplies: 100$ for cage, food, and mice and 50$ for toys…?

Posted on 18. Oct, 2010 by Toy Expert.

For Christmas my dad said he would give me 250$ to spend. I plan on putting 100$ in the bank, letting my dad spend 50% on mice toys and supplies and I spend 100$ on a 50$ cage, food, and anything else which includes new cat toys or something for each of my cats (three: 1 cat and 2 kittens)

This is what I want…

With the 50$ what I want so far is some more of the plastic tubing
What else?

I will show you the cage I want:

http://cgi.ebay.com/2-Level-Hamster-Rodent-Gerbil-Rat-Mouse-Cage-S2910B_W0QQitemZ110308279004QQcmdZViewItemQQptZLH_DefaultDomain_0?hash=item110308279004&_trksid=p3286.c0.m14&_trkparms=72%3A1205%7C66%3A2%7C65%3A12%7C39%3A1%7C240%3A1318

That’s teh cage I want. There are several listings on ebay there and I love that one. It comes with a lot of tubing but I want a little more. I have a ton of toys already. I have tubing of the ends of paper towels and toilet paper. I have fisher price blocks, soft blocks from the dollar section of target but I got at the thrift store. I have a tunnel for Thomas the train, I have a hiding place made for dora the explorer, I have a purse like thing for a hiding spot and several plastic round long containers for a place for them to climb in, cat toys with bells, and lots of other things.

I want things colorful, fun, and things you know they like. Not neccisarily toys but treats and things like that too.

I will be getting 3-6 mice. Probably 4 or 5.

Also show me cat toys and treats your cats and kittens love.

Where can I buy a Train Conductor Hat for adults?

Posted on 11. Oct, 2010 by Toy Expert.

I’m in Orchestra and we’re playing the Polar Express for our Winter Concert. I thought it would be cool if our conductor wore a train conductor hat for the song. I’m looking for the black ones with the word "Conductor" on the front (not the ones that are blue and white). Try not to say Amazon or Ebay because I don’t want to have to buy online.

Thanks!

Mom's of Thomas the tank lovers, I need you!?

Posted on 01. Oct, 2010 by Toy Expert.

Hey, so I try to watch Thomas with my son, and I know most of the trains. His favs are of course Thomas, James and Percy, sometimes Toby. I got him this lot off ebay and I have no idea what these trains are. As far as I can tell, the two blue ones are Thomas and Gordon, and I *think* the green on the left is Percy, but what is the black one, and the green one on the right??

http://i8.ebayimg.com/05/i/000/a1/10/d25f_1_b.JPG

thanks!
Are BOTH the green ones Percy? Just different kinds? I recognized the one on the left, but not the right, i should have known the black one was diesel!!!

HE LOVES Duncan, and recently has taken an interest in Emily. I’m trying to get him the whole take along set, so I’m finding new ones that arent in his movies everyday!

Looking for Thomas the Tank Engine bouncer?

Posted on 29. Sep, 2010 by Toy Expert.

Anybody happen to know who may have specialty ones? Something like the one at this link… http://www.walmart.com/catalog/product.do?product_id=3168464 ?
My little boy is obsessed with Thomas. So we are either having his party at the zoo (they have a train) or at the house with some kind of train or something for he and a few friends to play on. Any ideas for other options are welcome
eBay was the first place I looked, but thanks They do have the tiny indoor tent type things that we may have to settle for but they really aren’t big enough for more than 2 children to be in at a time.

Brio Toys?

Posted on 27. Aug, 2010 by Toy Expert.

I just got my American Baby magazine, and inside was a wonderful wooden train set. The manufacturer is Brio Toys (www.brio.com). I went to their website and some other websites that carry Brio Toys. However, I am unable to find the train set in the magazine.

The train set is a wooden track that stores in a red, white, and blush plush horse. It has three little wooden horses as trains. There is also a red ramp with yellow accents and red and yellow end pieces for the track.

Can anyone help me locate a place to buy this set?

And, yes I’ve trie ebay.

Diesel Engine from Thomas And Friends!!…?

Posted on 20. Aug, 2010 by Toy Expert.

I am looking for the Diesel Engine that goes with the Thomas the Train Collection… I have looked everywhere online.. even Ebay. We bought our son this as a gift 2 years ago. It went with the old blue tracks.. He was all black, and had the plastic thing on the back to pull cars with…. Does anybody know what I’m talking about, and where to get one..?? My son broke his and has been freaking out about wanting another one.. I have had no luck. Except that I found a "diesel 10" with the magnetic group… but he looks NOTHING at all like the original!! Can anybody help me??? Why did they stop making him??? Thanks!

Is there a such thing as "track adapters" for the different "Thomas the Train" track designs

Posted on 30. Jun, 2010 by Toy Expert.

Thomas train tracks are either blue, grey, tan, or wooden. All have different connectors. My grandson has ALL of the designs but cannot use them together. Does TOMY make a box of connectors? I have looked on eBay, but I am not seeing what I need.

Thanks!
