Hi friends, I have been trying to reach the company on the following link:

http://www.vintagetoysauctions.com/Contactus#.UqoJw_u0Rc4
Never a reply, in fact, the e-mail to their site does not seem to go through. Have tried many times.

Would like to sell my 5 foot tall Snoopy. He is a plush figure, made in Japan in 1970.
I cannot seem to connect with this company. Anyone know a good 'toy' seller that I might contact regarding the sale of this huge plush Snoopy?

I don't seen to be able to find a good contact.
Thanks for any help.

link specifically says 'no appraisals'. Did you ask for one? Looks to me like vintage toys is just a place for sellers to list what they have on other sites.

I know he is desirable but want to find a toy seller or auctioneer who will take him. I have no idea where to go to find someone to sell him for me.

I thought this site would offer me some info but it seems not to be the case.

In my area there seems to be no-one to look at him. I do not have the skill or the proper camera to sell him on eBay. Maybe Santa will bring me a new camera. My digital Kodak (M1063) is awful, I can't seem to get it to work properly. A family member who tried to re-install it for me has told me that the disk is damaged.

Have no idea what to do to correct this and have no $$$ to buy a new camera.
Such is life, I guess.
Meantime, Snoopy sits in the recliner in my den. My kitty finds him very intimidating. One little cat, one huge stuffed dog.

Take the name of the largest near by town and google it the words "toys" and "auctions". There are many auction houses that offer specialty auction for various things like toys several times a year. If you find any, just call and ask when their next toy auction is and they'd be interested. Also you can find folks that do Ebay for other people for a percentage of the sale price, another google try.
