How much is it? Could we set up a donation page and the rest of the locost builders mob all chip in and buy it for the fozzie monster?


Jasper - 6/1/11 at 04:30 PM

That sounds like a great idea - cost price to me will be about £120-130 - it's a special US import so I wont know the exact amount till we get them in from the States in May.

And a little bird tells me it's Fozzie's birthday in May too

fozzie, can you please ban yourself from this thread


MikeR - 6/1/11 at 05:58 PM

Actually can you have a chat with Chris to organise a donate option on the board, create a thread about it (with a link) and then ban yourself

What ..... you want us to do the work involved in sorting this out ourselves!!!!!!!!!! We're hopeless blokes you know (and if i organise it you may get it for the birthday after next)


Daddylonglegs - 6/1/11 at 06:07 PM

I suppose she can take comfort in knowing that at least it won't take as long as your car is!


Fozzie - 6/1/11 at 07:23 PM

Guys........I really don't know what to say........I am humbled....

So I have pointed ChrisW in the direction of this thread..and have banned
myself from participating further......


Jasper - 7/1/11 at 10:30 AM

I have a business Paypal account that I can take individual donations to if it helps, lets wait to see what Chris W can do with regards to making a sticky Thread and getting some more interest


lotusmadandy - 7/1/11 at 10:34 AM

I'm up for that.....

Andy


Jasper - 7/1/11 at 11:25 AM

U2U me for Paylpal details for the donation


scootz - 7/1/11 at 11:40 AM

I'm in!


MikeCapon - 7/1/11 at 11:50 AM

Me too


scootz - 7/1/11 at 11:56 AM

You have funds!

Reminder to all that you can send PayPal as a 'gift' and there are no charges taken!


ChrisW - 7/1/11 at 12:00 PM

Guys

I'm happy to pay for this out of the site donations fund. There's money in there to cover it, so Jasper can get the bear ordered straight away.

Depends how many people have already sent direct to Jasper I guess...?

Chris


lotusmadandy - 7/1/11 at 12:03 PM

Chris,i am about to send money to the site donation link.
If you could take it from there please i would be much obliged.

Andy


lotusmadandy - 7/1/11 at 12:06 PM

Done..

Er. I'm confused now. It don't take a lot... Do we send the money to Jasper or to the site via the PayPal donate button?


eddie99 - 7/1/11 at 12:24 PM

Let me know where you want my donation sent to. Site or Jasper

Please, include me on the instruction......


Jasper - 7/1/11 at 12:30 PM

Either will be fine, a few people have sent me Paypals, I'll keep a track of those and include all donation names on a card with the bear.

When it comes to May and if there is any shortfall it can be made up with site donations.

Chris is a busy man, so it may be better to send the funds to me so I can keep track of all the names? What do we think?


MikeCapon - 7/1/11 at 12:41 PM

PayPal sent to Jasper then.

Cheers,

Mike


lotusmadandy - 7/1/11 at 01:26 PM

OOPS....

Sorry i sent mine to chris.

Andy

MikeRJ - 7/3/11 at 05:31 PM

A long suffering board admin, a marmite addict and a highly skilled car builder.

You've been registered of 2 years, surely you've seen some of her posts?

chrsgrain - 19/3/11 at 12:26 PM

How's this going, can we collectively afford Fozzies birthday present?

Chris


Jasper - 19/3/11 at 12:33 PM

Yes, we've got enough now, just waiting for it to come into stock in May


Hellfire - 12/5/11 at 06:05 PM

Did Fozzie get the bear?

Phil


Jasper - 13/5/11 at 02:20 PM

Just an update - still waiting for Fozzie Bear to come into stock and we have just enough donations now which is great.


mad4x4 - 29/6/11 at 03:53 PM

We need a photo posted of fozzie with the bear.


Jasper - 2/8/11 at 09:32 AM

Just to keep you updated, there has been a delay in production from Steiff (which is quite normal with 'licensed' pieces). We're hoping to get delivery from the USA by the end of the month.


mangogrooveworkshop - 2/8/11 at 09:48 AM

so will that be MAY 2013 we are talking about


Jasper - 3/8/11 at 09:02 AM

Yeah - it's always the way with Steiff, it's all hand made and has to be approved by the copyright holders, so always takes ages and usually arrives late!


pewe - 12/10/11 at 09:20 AM

Hi, Jasper. Just wondered how delivery is looking on this?
Do you think we'll have it as a Christmas present of for her next birthday?
Cheers, Pewe


Jasper - 14/10/11 at 12:23 PM

Still no delivery date I'm afraid - this is quite usual with Steiff as they deliver this range throughout the year. It will come, we just don't know when.


Jasper - 24/11/11 at 11:46 AM

Just to let you all know Fozzie Bear is on it's way from the US next week - finally!!


stevegough - 24/11/11 at 11:52 AM

It'll have some antique value then?


Jasper - 5/12/11 at 11:40 AM

Fozzie Bear will be on it's way to Fozzie today, with a card with the names of everyone who has contributed. Just in time for Christmas


scootz - 5/12/11 at 12:45 PM


stevebubs - 7/12/11 at 01:08 PM

Trying to think about an appropriate gestation period joke but failing....
