Description: Hi! Oh, sometimes I can be so stupid. When Fossils first came out in 2007, I got a call from a big dealer in New Jersey I had purchased from several times before. He said he just got in a huge supply of this awesome 17" red dragon from Ty called Fossils. He said I should buy 10 or 20 dozen. What? I told him I would try one dozen since I had not even seen the dragon. So several days later, I got the dragon. In THREE days, I sold 11! I was selling Ty products at a small mall 20 miles west of Boston. Eleven in three days. Insane. So I called the guy in New Jersey, intending to order the 10 dozen he had suggested I buy. Too late! He sold out to other dealers the 48 dozen he had bought. Oh, well, I have made worst mistake than that. One of those mistakes--something I didn't buy-- cost me about $3 million. Another cost me a million--so far. I told you that sad story to tell you this. THIS IS MY LAST FOSSILS THE RED DRAGON. Mint with mint tags. Beautiful. Sent with one of my 40,00 tag protectors to keep it mint with mint tags. I have seen this as high as $75 on eBay. My price: $44.88. Very rare. Check eBay or any other site and see what I mean. I sold Beanie Babies and Beanie Buddies at a mall for 23 years from 1997 to 2020. Occasionally, I also would invest in Beanie Babies and Beanie Buddies that I believed had strong investment potential. I should have bought 10 dozen. Or 20 dozen. Or more. Here are the rules of the game (which, in my opinion, is the name of the greatest movie ever made.) 1) No discount. It's $44.88. I NEVER discount any of my Buy It Now listings because all my prices are fair. THIS IS NOT MY HOBBY. THIS IS HOW I HAVE EARNED A LIVING FOR THE PAST 28 YEARS, INCLUDING THE LAST 24 YEARS ON EBAY. So, please do not ask for a lower price. In many case, I AM the lowest price. 2) Please add $10.85 for insured shipping if you live in the continental U.S. 3) I also ship worldwide through eBay's International Shipping Program. Please check eBay for details. I have shipped to 30 countries and all 50 states! 4) I am proud of my feedback on eBay, encompassing more than 7,700 separate transactions since 2000. 5) As an investor, I specialize primarily in five areas: rare Beanie Babies and Beanie Buddies, sports cards, framed and unframed photos, Marilyn Monroe items (somebody has to do it!), and Pokemon cards and plush. 6) If you have a question, please ask. This is a one person business for 28 years who has always understood the value of superior customer service. 7) The most important rule of all--DON'T FORGET RULE NUMBER ONE. Thank you for reading this far. You have now read as much in the last two minutes than the Orange Menace (rhymes with rump) has probably read in his adult life. Not kidding. Thanks. Jerry P.S. One month after this came out, Ty retired this!
