 ABSOLUTELY SENSATIONAL NEARLY 1m HIGH REAL-LIFE-LIKE YOGI BEAR TOY!!
COME GET THE REAL THANG!!
ALL THE WAY FROM THE U.S. of A.!
MADE FROM ALL NATURAL MATERIALS: LUXURIOUS PLUSH PILE WOOL & COTTON!!
EXTREMELY RARE!! NOT EVEN AVAILABLE ELSEWHERE ON EBAY!
ALL kids want toys, especially the soft, cuddly ones, the bigger the better! Did we say BIG? Well, YES, this is more than big - it is HUGE, compared to what else is being offered on eBay! Read on:
Alright, this IS totally awesome: a nearly 1m tall real soft, very cuddly Yogi Bear soft toy made from ALL 100% natural materials from head to legs. Look on Australian eBay & you WON'T find any other Yogi Bear soft toys at all. Look in US eBay & you'll find a few - ALL in the "pewee" or 'midget class' - all 9 inches & under! Well, this one here is a ....GIANT!! Just 3 cm (just over 1") short of 1 meter! Look on OTHER eBays in the world & you would be wasting your time! If you are particularly looking for a good-size Yogi Bear soft toy, you ARE in the right place! Let's have a close look at this "monster"!:
The head (including its characteristic BIG floppy ears!), hands & shoes are made of this REALLY soft, smooth, very cuddly luxurious plush pile natural wool, light brown in color. The reason WHY this material is so soft is simply because the material has very good pile length or depth (closely examine it under a magnifying glass & you'll know what we mean!). The bear's shirt is a checked blue & white all-natural cotton material, and it actually extends throughout the bear's entire body, right down to the legs; most of it is actually hidden by the blue-denim overalls. The dark-blue denim overalls are your normal thick denim material used in making jeans for human wear. The overalls are supported by 2 straps that go over the shoulders. These straps, over the back, cross each other & are strongly machine-stitched to the overalls on the back (see pics).
The bear wears a stylish red bandanna around its neck. This is 100% natural cotton. Two ends of this bandanna are tied into a knot at the back of the neck - real cool, huh?. In the front chest area, a pocket (also of the same denim material) is sewn into the denim, and a piece of the same red bandanna material is shown hanging from it - VERY stylish indeed!
Our US contact turned up with this from Yellowstone, Wyoming, USA & said that THIS was the ONLY one of its kind he could find! It's obviously an item out of production for MANY years, although we have no idea how old it is.
Condition: It is generally in excellent condition. NONE of the materials have any smudges, stains, dirt or dis-colorations, as you can see from the pictures. There's NO loose stitches ANYWHERE. The red bandanna is a little crumpled in the front, but that can be easily straightened out with an iron (low- medium heat setting). All the important dimensions are in the last pic.
There you you have it: an extremely rare soft-toy offering of a favorite TV cartoon character EVERY kid in the world knows of, in GIANT dimensions! THIS will, undoubtedly, be the ULTIMATE treat for ANY kid! This will be any kid's favorite bed companion - all so soft, smooth, warm (yes, the extra long or deep pile helps to retain heat far longer), & totally cuddly!! Give your kid a REAL treat - something he/she can hug & cuddle up to in bed - there's just nothingelse quite like it! At 1m long, he is even longer than a lot of kids! THIS is the soft, cuddly toy to end ALL soft, cuddly toys!!
Give your kid a REAL toy, not a tiny, teeny, weeny little one! For any kid who likes cartoon characters (and which kid doesn't??!), THIS would have to be an absolute 'dream come true'! Get it while you can because there's ONLY 1 of this! [EASY payment by credit card (Mastercard, VISA) if you wish!]. And this is NOT costing "an arm & a leg", like lot of kids toys are! We're pricing it real low for a quick sale! The buyer who ends up with this has got to be the real smart one who knows what a real bargain is!!

Important Freight Advice on this Item:
(a) We need you to understand WHY the Freight is at the level that we have quoted here: the packaged box is VERY big; it is the cubic volume of the box that is the sole reason for the postal charge. While we ALWAYS endeavor to minimize your freight costs, certain situations involving very large cargoes (like this) makes it near impossible to cut costs without jeopardizing the cargo. THIS is about the LARGEST item we've had to pack into a single box. At 1m long, we've had to gently fold it slightly in order for it to fit into the very largest box (called DHL's "Jumbo Box") we have. This HUGE box alone measures 48(L)x39(H)x46(W) cm. However, Australia Post's volume cubing rules equate this volume to a weight of 28.0 kgs!! Hence the freight quote given.
(b) The Freight quote given is applicable Australia-wide EXCEPT for Tasmania. So, IF you're from Tassie & are intending to bid, PLEASE e-mail us first to get a freight quote for your area.
(c) Due to the size & weight of this parcel and the high expense of shipping it, even by Australia Post standards, we will waive our usual rule about not allowing a personal pick-up. By special arrangement, the winner can pick-up anywhere between the NSW Central Coast areas of Woy Woy to Gosford in order to save yourselves some $. Alternatively, you are welcome to organise your own Courier to pick this up for you, but we believe it won't be any cheaper than Australia Post.
-------------------------------------------------
Thank you for looking here. Now we would very much like you to scroll further down this page and read completely and thoroughly understand at least 3 important sections: Payment, Shipping, & Terms of Sale.
The "PAYMENT" section deals mainly with acceptable forms of payment and is directed mainly at Australian bidders/buyers. Australian buyers/bidders PLEASE note: The Freight quoted applies Australia-wide EXCEPT Tasmania, which is more expensive than mainland Australia. Tasmanians intending to buy/bid PLEASE contact us before you do so in order to get your Freight quotes. (The Insurance fee remains the same)
For Overseas buyers/bidders: the Freight & Insurance quoted here apply ONLY to buyers/bidders from Australia (unless otherwise stated in the ad.). The "SHIPPING" section below is directed mostly at Overseas bidders/buyers who do not contact us prior to bidding/buying in order to get their Freight & Insurance quotes from us.
We strongly request your full co-operation in especially these matters because it will save BOTH parties a lot of aggravation, wasted time & effort to get things right. Disregarding these 2 key issues can (and most probably WILL) also delay the despatch of your item(s). Your full co-operation here will ensure a smooth, expeditious transaction.
Thank you for your co-operation & understanding.
Settlement of your purchase MUST be made within 5 days on the end of the auction. (Please negotiate any unexpected delays with the Seller). IF you make multiple purchases, the SAME condition applies - 5 days within the end of the first auction, as postage-combining (see section on "Shipping") applies to a 5-day period from the end of the first item's auction.
For ALL Australian buyers: The PREFERRED form of payment is bank direct-deposit (either via Internet or personal banking). WHEN your item will be despatched will depend on when your payment can be confirmed - the earlier the confirmation, the earlier the despatch. The very quickest form of payment to ensure the earliest/quickest despatch of your item(s) is a cash-deposit in any NAB branch - that deposit WILL show up immediately, in which case, more often than not, your item(s) will be despatched on the very same day.
For direct-depositors, when making your payment, PLEASE put your User Name in the "Reference" box (IF there is one – depending on the bank) as this will make it a whole lot easier & much less time-consuming for us to identify YOUR payment. This can only mean 1 thing: you'll get your merchandise a lot faster. Your co-operation here is required & appreciated. So, help us to help you better!
ALL Overseas buyers/bidders please note: The shipping cost quoted in our ad. is applicable ONLY within mainland Australia. It includes Insurance. Should you require Express Post, please request it ASAP. Insurance is mandatory to protect your investment & for your own peace-of-mind. For Overseas buyers: BEFORE you bid, you're advised to e-mail us with your country name so that we can give you your freight & Insurance quotations (which will, of-course, be higher than for Australia). This is for those Overseas buyers/bidders who have gone ahead to bid/buy without contacting us BEFOREHAND for your Freight & Insurance quotes: Do NOT go ahead, pre-emptively (ie. before getting our official Invoice), to make your PayPal payment. PLEASE wait for our official PayPal Invoice.
ALL sales are final. PLEASE do NOT bid IF you do not intend to pay for your purchase(s) - GENUINE BUYERS ONLY, please. . If you are unsure of the item(s) in any way, please e-mail us your questions before you bid. It is important for the winning bidder to take note of our previously-stated settlement period (within 5 days of the end of the first auction) for your purchase(s). IF you do not settle within this period & fail to contact us OR do not respond to our e-mails, you are likely to be reported & the item re-listed. ALL our item descriptions are based on what's provided to us by our world-wide network of suppliers. If there are any inadvertent inaccuracies in our Description, we are not aware of them. We represent the items to the best of our knowledge & the information that's available to us. Should there be any problem with regards to any of our items, we would like you to contact us immediately so that we can resolve the issue(s) to your satisfaction. Remember: We are here to keep you happy!
LoneSioux: Native Spirit 
"NATIVE SPIRIT" is a new concept in the sourcing & presentation of various objects of antiquity, arts & crafts from all over the world, with a strong emphasis on NATIVE art, ie. something created by an indigenous race somewhere in the world. It attempts to make available the fruits of the artistic creative genius & originality of any Native race (or descendants thereof) on this planet. The items offered will reflect their primeval/primordial arts & cultures, and highlight their thinking & attitudes at that time..... In a way, we combine, here, the elements of culture, art, crafts, palaeontology, archaeology & history...... I'm a later-generation part American Lakota Sioux Indian with an "eclectic mix" for a background: educated with a Ph.D. in Cambridge (UK), with multi-farious interests ranging from native culture to quantum physics. At the heart of it all is the passion for the arts & crafts, of the ole` world & contemporary. We will attempt to bring you here offerings from 4 corners of the globe with ONE over-riding pre-requisite: AUTHENTICITY. By this time, we've established "supply routes" to several indigenous sources in different parts of the world for various ORIGINAL works of arts & crafts, many of which are truly antique, created in a different time & space ..... With the exception of a tiny few (these exceptions will be explicitly mentioned), the rest of our offerings will each be, in its own right, truly UNIQUE & one-off. WHATEVER you find in our pages, whether it be a boomerang, an Amazon American Indian "peace pipe", an Amazon jungle blow-gun & dart set, a Lakota Sioux Indian bow & arrow set, etc. will NEVER have been made ANYWHERE ELSE except in the geographical world region that the origin of such a product would have been associated with. In other words, you'll NEVER find, in our pages, a boomerang made in Taiwan, Bali, Thailand or even USA (world boomerang-throwing champion 2 years in a row!) but from "dinky di" Australia AND made, individually (ie. NOT mass-produced) by a koori (Australian Aborigine). You'll NEVER find, within our pages, an American Indian tomahawk made in India, Taiwan or Indonesia (or some "sweatshop" nation....) - it WILL have been made by some American Indian, either from a Pine Ridge Sioux reservation, Navajo station, or Cherokee settlement in Arizona somewhere, with FULL royalties having been paid to the original artist/creator as deservedly so..... Very sadly, all over the world, the story has been the same: the brilliant native artist/creator gets "bugger all" while the multitude of "middle-men" each happily taking in their “lion’s share” of the "pie", leaving a tiny bit left over for the original creator. "NATIVE SPIRIT", with its ever-expanding global network of sources of contacts with Native artists/painters/sculptors, etc. aims to address & redress the situation: decent, equitable returns to the original artists AND "cutting out" the multitude of "middle-men". Herein lies the crux & essence of our Mission Statement:
to present you the truly AUTHENTIC works of art & craft and antiquity at fair prices in accordance with a realistic assesment of the amount of work & materials that would have gone into the creation of the work .....
ANYTIME & EVERYTIME you buy from us, you WILL know our name is synonymous with ORIGINALITY, AUTHENTICITY & QUALITY..... We offer nothing less....
