It's ok I appreciate the humor of it! LOL They are so cute. I really enjoy looking at them and wanted to share them with you all. My mom is very knowledgable about what each one is made of and when they were made etc. I enjoy learning from her about the differant kinds of plastics in the early years and it is so interesting to see all the variety.

We went on ebay to look for some and was amazed at the amt of vintage elves available. But some of them go quite high! One set of elves went for over a $100. One mom really wanted and we missed out on went for $45
She was prepared to pay $5 per elf but did go up in alot of bids but was outbid at the last 3 seconds. I learned alot about strategy!! LOL

The older pinecone elves that were made in Germany they have painted on teeth that look like daggers to me!! LOL They are the really old ones. She got one for $28 but it was in really good shape.
We had several packages come in the mail over about 4 days and it was so much fun to see the elves we bought on EBay.
