Title: Super Mario Furniture. Official Seal from 1990 brand new
Post by: russlyman on January 19, 2015, 12:40:50 PM
Ok guys I found these at a old furniture store called RailRoad Salvage. They are from 1990 and have the offical seal of Nintendo. I checked all over eBay and could not find anything. I just recently listed one each on eBay too see if anyone has interest. They are super cool, and just wanted to share with you guys.

That, sir, is pretty nifty. Never seen anything of the sort myself.

I've never wanted anything more in my entire life.  I wouldn't even give my wife a say in the matter.  "Guess what honey, our bedroom has a theme now!  Deal with it or move out!".

Lol ok made my ebay in Highschool. My fav band is MxPx. They have a song called chickmagent. I didn't feel like starting over on eBay sooooo ha.

They were $10 for each. I got the whole lot for $106 with tax. 6 7 headboards and 4 turtle benches.

I did post it over on nintnedoage. Under what it's worth. Got three message from people interested.  Plus a few from Facebook game groups I'm on. Waiting to see how the auctions go. I don't want to say ok $50 when they are worth $100.  I never seen them before and we might not see them again.

I'm not greedy by all means. I just want to also make sure they go to good homes. At least some with kids ha.

Sure, I would use that excuse, too, Russ.  I might actually be interested in some for the kids.  Shipping would probably kill me, though.

How tall is the bench seat.  My son would FLIP OUT over this. LOL

Also how long did you run this auction.  I see it already says 1 day left.  I think you might have sold yourself short by not running this at least 7 days.  Good Luck though, I can't wait to see what it goes for.

I messed up on the bench auction and did 5 days and $15 shipping. Should have been 7 and free shipping. Blast.

I check shipping to NJ and CA with fedex.
Bench was $12-$22
Toad headboard was $18-$28

So not bad at all.
There are a lot of watchers so hopefully it ends well.

Ah, Chick Magnet. Good song. I was a big MxPx fan back in my high school days as well. At least your ebay name is better than my first AOL screen name/email...it was...wait for it....longshorts...because I had on a pair of longshorts and couldn't think of anything else. You're welcome for the cool story bro so early this morning.

I've only heard of them because "Heard That Sound" is in Burnout Revenge... Never played any other of their songs though.

Very teenage angsty punk rock with religious undertones. The "Teenage Politics" album was my favorite.

Yeah I sold one each to the same guy on eBay. They went for s little less than expected. I think cause it's such a unusual item the auction option didn't work in its favor. Since not a lot of people are searching for Mario furniture. I re listed one bed frame at a buy it now/ make a offer. This way if someone stumbles across it
