Rare Breyer Glossy Liver Chestnut Paso Fino At Auction

I have listed a very rare Breyer to EBay.

Breyer produced a very small number of these Glossy Liver Chestnut Paso Fino’s.  I will personally guarantee the authenticity of this model.  Even if you aren’t interested in bidding, do check out the auction.  This is one really beautiful horse!  You can view the auction by clicking on the photo above.

If you haven’t already, be sure to check my last post about the Oddity Breyers from Arizona.  Their auctions are ending this week 🙂

A Storage Locker Treasure Trove

Last year, an individual in Arizona purchased a storage locker full of Breyer horses.  They listed them on Ebay and collectors were shocked to find a treasure trove of rare tests, samples and miscellaneous oddities.  I followed the auctions and watched one after another rise out of my price range until I was finally able to snag a beautiful Breyer Bay Fighting Stallion with black points.  When I received him, examined him closely and bathed him in Lestoil to see if the black points would come off.  They did not.  As far as I could see, this fellow was the real deal.  Sadly, this horse has since been sold but I still remember the excitement of seeing those unique Breyers pop up on Ebay.  From what I can remember there was a test color buckskin Man O’ War, a glossy bay Jumping Horse, multiple bay Fighting Stallions with black points (with and without white socks), multiple sorrel Fighting Stallions, grey deer, test color pigs and other assorted wildlife.  I have acquired some Breyer animals from this collection and they are now listed on Ebay.  From what I can see, the Holstein Cow and the Small Walking Hereford Bull do not differ from their regular releases.  However, I am not overly familiar with these Breyers in particular and it is possible that I have missed some differences and it is quite possible that they are samples or oddities of some sort.  The deer are special.  The Doe appears fairly run of the mill but the fawn has no spots.  She is a definite variation, sample or test of some sort.  You can click on the pictures to view their auctions and see more pictures 🙂

It’s Alive!!! * Free Breyer Gift With Breyer Purchase & Free Shipping Too!

It’s alive!  The Trove is alive!  I have been slowly stocking the website store for Aidan’s Toy Trove 🙂  It can be accessed from the Trove link on the menu above.  Most of our Breyer inventory has been listed.  The Trove is  set to take payment securely using Paypal (just like our Ebay store) but I hope to move some of the sales from Ebay to the website.  We will be implementing coupons and a customer loyalty program.  I’m very excited about it!  Any purchases made now will be retro added to the loyalty program when it goes live.  Our shopping cart has been tested and appears to be working but I would love to process some orders and work out any kinks that will undoubtedly surface.  As most of what is ready for purchase right now is Breyer related, I am offering a free Breyer Gift with any Breyer purchase.  I have a bunch of Stablemates and plushies and tack and catalogs and tons of other neat stuff that will be given away as free gifts.

The Skylander inventory is up and ready for purchase 🙂  For now, everything for sale in the Trove is being offered with free shipping.  For you wonderful international buyers, the shopping cart is unfortunately not yet configured for that.  However, I will happily invoice you with Paypal if you would like to make a purchase and I will gladly ship at a discounted combined shipping rate.  Please inquire aidanstoytrove@gmail.com Multiple Breyer & Skylander purchases will receive a partial refund through Paypal to account for combined shipping as well.

Let’s get this website officially rolling.  If you see a Breyer you like, buy it here and receive free Breyer loot.  Pretty cool huh?
