Pokémon collectors geekery! (You've been warned.)

On a happier note, however (I don't know why I insisted on making this a separate post), I was nervously watching the jumbo Dragonite pillow that's currently on Ebay and hoping and hoping I would win it (but scared of what the price would be) and...

Today during my sales post, randomflavor offered me a fair trade for one instead! :D I'm so happy! I've wanted one badly ever since my mom refused to buy one for me in Wal-Mart when I was ten or eleven. :( It was $9.99, and they now go for a LOT more than that.

And because I don't have to worry about how much the Dragonite on Ebay is going to get up to any more, I bought myself a Skymin TOMY plush, which is one of the other things I wanted really badly. Now if only I could get the big Skymin lottery plush... That's totally wishful thinking, though.

I'm quite happy with the Pokéstuff I've gotten recently, though! A nice new Mew plush, a life-sized Togepi and Celebi, Flareon and Cyndaquil Pokédolls...etc.

Eee, I'm so happy! It's a bit insane how happy Pokémon stuff makes me.

Yep! I got her in a trade. She's really cuuuute. ♥

Wow, that's awesome you got the pillow from a trade!

I've owned two of them - one I got on ebay, but it was pretty worn (resold), and another I got on ebay brand new for about $40. (Some seller had like, a surplus of maybe 10 of them? So they sold pretty cheaply.)

It really is a nice plush, but I get too tempted by the idea of profit sometimes, especially if it isn't a pokemon I typically collect. XD

Isn't it? I'm really excited!

Also, $40 is a bargain for those things. How lucky that the seller had so many!

Yes, I can understand that. Well, you should keep it until a day comes that you really, really need the money or something. Otherwise I imagine you'd regret selling it...

I used to have that Dragonite pillow! I got it for Christmas one year~ I loved it, but I don't know if I still have it.. ]:

I'm happy you're getting one for a fair trade~ :D

Aw, that's sad. :( I hope you find it someday!

Also, darn it, I'm at my mom's (which is where I don't have nearly as much Pokéstuff) so I don't have any cool freebees to go with your package. :( But I'll try and find something anyway! D8
