The Circus Is Over
« on: June 09, 2010, 14:39:54 »
Did anyone know that they took out the circus theme out of the market and know everyone is buying them because theres no more of them, and the Playmobil is not making them anymore. Now everyone is selling them on eBay for super high prices! Like the main circus tent coast no less than $100!  :(o): Did anyone know about this?

Oh than good because in the US and Germany, theres no more! You know what you could do..well you could buy a few sets and sell them here in the US in eBay because everyone wants them. Just if you wanted to, you don't have to. Its just a good idea, I wanted to tell you.

Me too I'm not so interested in the circus theme, but they are so good for selling!  ;D

Ditto in the UK and US from what I saw and see on the shelves. I even saw big Circus set at TK Maxx but left it on the shelf because of the price.

Why would people buy them for BIG prices when they shunned them at regular prices?

I've just bought the new big tent version but only as I got a good deal with the horse show as well. I'm not really into the circus stuff but I've got about 10 clowns now which I do really like :love:  and I thought the Big Top would be great to show them off in, and I wanted to checkout the parts!  :-[

I'm not sure either Martin. I mean why did they become so popular when they had them all year long in the market?
