I don't get on eBay much, because when I do I usually get sucked in and bid on a bunch of random stuff. Thankfully I almost never win. I think I've only won 3 times actually. But I was STOKED when I won this lot of 10 dream pet style reindeer! I shared my collection last year, and I always keep my eye out. This listing was terribly written, and the picture made it look like it was for just one deer, so I got these for a steal! I still can't believe it. I felt giddy opening the box! These kind of deer are probably my favorite kind of Christmas decoration.
Two of them were still in the bags!
I opened them of course. But being in the bag still, they were really in pristine shape. Look at this cute little trio. I like the aqua/red/yellow eye combo. And their fancy shiny gold antlers!
Two pairs. I'm not sure how I feel about the shiny ones. I might try and sell them in my case.
Not these too though. Don't they look like they are talking crap? Those side eyes!
And then the last three, they are all different.
I have two other ones that are very similar to the guy on the left.
This guy is my favorite though! I have never seen one so big, and he is in perfect shape. His body is soft white velvety fabric, and I think his expression is so sweet.Taking pictures of these guys got me more into the Christmas spirit. That, and when I got home tonight Travis had set up my aluminum pom pom tree, and had a bunch of wrapped gifts for me under it. It was really sweet. We are heading down to Rock City this weekend to see the Christmas lights up on the mountain. I can't wait! I can't believe it is only 12 days til Christmas!
Those are soooo funny and cute! That one on the left in the second to last photo really makes me giggle - it's eyes! :)

Love, love , love every one of those deer!!
ReplyDeleteHave fun viewing the lights -Merry Christmas!
I love them all (great score)! I agree the big white guy is really sweet (I have never seen one like it). I collect them too and, looking at this team, I too think I'm ready to decorate for the holidays! (Really? 12 more days-geez!)
ReplyDeletei now have almost 20 and i'm trying to decide if that is enough. I don't know if I can ever stop though! haha
DeleteSo cute! I think I like the red ones with the side eyes the best...they look like they are totally gossiping about the other reindeer.
ReplyDeleteThey're totally talkin crap about those "shiny ones" ;) What a steal! I have had too many letdowns on Ebay this season :( I agree with you on that relief part when you don't win, I'm always like "whew. now I don't have to explain to Jerome what I bought and why".... you should be gettin a little package by tomorrow evening to put you more in the Christmas mood ;) Can't wait!
ReplyDeleteaw yeah i can't wait!
DeleteSCORE! I'd have a hard time not playing with them. That pair of catty divas look like they're dressed up as devils for Halloween! Definitely my favorites. How are you going to display them?
ReplyDeletelast year i put a few on the top of my tv, and the rest on my mantle. but now i have almost 20 so I'm not sure! I think I want to put them all together so they make a "statement", or something
DeleteThose are awesome! They are giving you some form of poop face-side eye mash up.
ReplyDeletelove them!
ReplyDeleteTOTAL V-I-C-T-O-R-Y. Them's shiny gold antlers and the flirty, yet non-plussed eyes on the ones below the the shiny gold antler ones, are bringing Christmas tears of joy to my eyes! And I love that you even you got them for a song. Can't wait to see what they look like with all your others ones! Dream Pet ARMY!
ReplyDeleteHaaa! Yeah, those two look like their judging all the other deer! LOL I didn't know that these were made by Shiny Brite!
ReplyDeleteVery cute,
Erica :)
