Disney Online specials
by Eugene Bradford 03 Mar '04

03 Mar '04

Hi, all! Just had to share... I received today 4 Disney Princess Masquerade Dolls that I bought at the Disney Store Online for $9.99 each. Evidently they were originally $22.50 each. They are really cute-Snow White, Sleeping Beauty, Ariel, and Cinderella in fabulous Mardi Gras style masquerade ball outfits. Even if you aren't into the Disney Princess dolls, the outfits are worth the $10. www.disneystore.go.com Melissa in MD

OT: MiKelman move and stuff
by pat brown 12 Feb '04

12 Feb '04

Hey all. I'm sure some of still get emails from MiKelman for various sales. What's the deal with them moving back from Florida to Ohio? I guess, more interesting, is what prompted them to move from Ohio to Florida in the first place? Just curious. These 2 are a never-ending source for news. Also, does anyone know whatever happened to Chuck Alligood who was a steady supporter for MiKelman and David? I always liked Chuck because he was a steady source for generating newsy (or depending on your camp, gossipy) discussions. I don't know, those days when there was so much that got this List in an uproar was kind of "entertaining," but I recognize that tension was elevated, too, and that was not entertaining. Each year that I return to reading emails from this List I am amazed to consider how long it has been in existence and how many original subscribers are still here. Wouldn't it have been a fun thing if this List could've gotten together for its own convention? Hmmm, I wonder, if cyber lists can put together their own cyber conventions. What would they "look" like in a cyber hotel? If this List were to assemble a cyber convention what would ours be like? Thank you all for reading my Garage Sale list--I know it's not much, but every little box I move out of my basement is a relief for me. Regards, pat Brown

Paul David and Chuck
by CRYSTAL KRANTZ 11 Feb '04

11 Feb '04

Hey Pat, These are two questions I recently wondered about myself! The Paul David thing I just read this morning. What the heck? I am irritated with him in that I think I was overcharged last September when I bought a bunch of dolls from a sale they had (while still in Ohio). I have written him about 5 times in the past few months asking about it, and he doesn't even respond! Does anyone know his correct address? I keep sending to the Mikelman address. Should be interesting to hear why they are moving back, after that BIG auction they had to sell their remaining dolls, etc. I don't know what the deal was with their warehouse in Columbus area, perhaps they couldn't sell (or get out of a lease)....just speculating here? Or maybe they decided they hated Florida? Hmmm... About Chuck, last I remember hearing from him, he posted somewhere that he was selling off his entire Candi collection. It sounded like something happened to totally turn him off to collecting them, but I haven't seen his name anywhere since. Crystal < Hey all.
