Crazy week here in the Catskills, NY. The streams were fine this time around.. Just major Power Outages due to high winds and Many, many trees down on wires. NYSEG got our area up on Wednesday.. the rest of Town should be up this weekend. Not so lucky our Southern NY & Coastal NJ neighbors. The town is taking donations of food, water, etc. to send down there. What a mess! 

October 29, 2012

Sandy should be hitting NY State today/tomorrow. After Irene last yr. our town was hit really hard..being in the Catskill Mts.- stream overflowing caused many power outages and road destruction. We have had warning this time and our town (as well as surrounding areas) is on high alert. Schools are closed today, etc. We expect power outages and will not to be able to go online from home, also we have no cell service where we live.. but expect to be able to get online from nearby Woodstock,NY..if we can get there. I am shipping all orders rec'd over the weekend this morning.. so fear not.. we will catch up once it settles down after the storm. 

East Coasters - STAY Safe! This too shall pass! Here's some closeup photos of a few of the recent finds:

A nice letter from a customer about their Unga Bunga Toy

Hi Joyce
My Unga Bunga arrived safely today and when I opened it I was immediately taken back to my 8th birthday. I was very proud of how I made him up from the kit and have always regretted allowing my mother to give him away during those teenage years when toys don't seem so important any more. Occasionally, I have 'Googled' him in the hope of getting a picture, but not for over a year now, so I could not believe it when a chance 'Google' brought up your website and there he was, complete and ready to be brought to life again. I just could not believe my luck and have been like a kid again waiting for the parcel to arrive. This time he'll be staying.
Many thanks for the quick postage and safe packaging. Many, many thanks for having such a great website and bringing out the child that's always in us, no matter what age we are on the outside.

Sept. 16, 2012 > Everything from the recent auction is on the site! Have already sold some items.. its getting that busy time of year, Vintage Toys make great holiday gifts!

Sorry about the site being down.. As I mentioned last week my server company upgraded a bunch of sites (ours included) to a new server with 4 times the power, etc.  But the other day we had to change the DNS (Domain Name Server). So, it has to Propagate around the globe..some customer servers save info for a day or two to help speed up browsing, so it may take a day or two for your computer to find my new settings.. hence the "Cannot Connect" It should be up all around the internet, soon! When this happens - sometimes if you clear your browser history & Internet Temporary Files - it will get it quicker.. but should be ok soon! 

Still added items on the site. I have about 1/2 on there..from the estate purchase and hope to have it all on by end of weekend. The Skill Drive, Penny Poodle & Johnny Astro Lot already sold.. (some people got on the site)

Our website is finally back up.. after having connect problems for 3.5 hrs!  I contacted our web host people and they were doing a File System Check.. so.. it is up now.. Sorry for any convenience. Still working on getting the rest of the items on the site from our big buying trip. Keep checking back!

We made it back safe & sound from Virginia! Picked up a fantastic selection of Toys & Games.  We drove about 7.5 hrs. down, stayed over & got back today around noon.  Not too bad for 2 grand parents. haha.  Everything is clean and - everything looks excellent or MINT.  Mechanical toys all work, etc.  I am starting to post now.. late afternoon. . will get all on asap..but will take a few days, (at least!). 

Please remember, do not call or email asking to buy the items you see in the preview photos below (before they are listed on the site).. please wait until they are actually on the site and Click The Buy Button.  If you are one of my Regular customers that pays through the mail.. please click the BUY button & go through the shopping cart, Select PAYPAL.. and just don't go all the way into Paypal.. Once it goes to paypal..it sends me your order..then email me that you will pay through the mail. This way you are "locked in" to getting it.  It seems the fairest way, I get ALOT of requests! 

Items will be on Toys1, Toys2, Games, Cartoons, Toys2, Space, Vehicles (Ride On Section) & Misc. pages. 

Cool Stuff!

Hope you are all enjoying this long weekend!  Bitterly cold here in Upstate NY!  Feel like hibernating!  No auctions or estate sales lately.. it's pretty slow in January.  We are gearing up to go down south at the end of the month (just for 2 days). A man contacted us that has a bunch of vintage toys to sell!  So we are looking forward to that! Plus, we will be going to a flea market next weekend.. 

Meanwhile, I just added some games on the Games page and two neat items on the Toys2 pg.
