Sure, my pleasure.
If you search for others, be aware that some "vintage" lots really show the slightly newer Polly Pockets with the larger figures, they are still old but not as charming and small as these ones. Maybe "Bluebird" was the name of the company for the original ones, I think I saw it come up on some items.

Btw, I’m starting to get skeptical that my order will actually materialize, it was a huge amount of vintage Polly pockets for a very cheap price and after doing more research I see that the seller could have probably gotten 5 times what I bought it for. I wonder if they realized that after I bought, and they will never actually ship… will have to wait and see.

I’m just following to see if the order actually comes 😆
For OP’s sake I hope it does!
Keep us posted!

I bought it via Etsy so I’m not worried about losing my money, they will refund if it doesn’t ship. I really hope it does because all my research has me OBSESSED with these by now but it’s almost too good to be true! |
I hope it comes too!
Keep us posted

Thanks - I’m going to look into it.

I'm wondering- what's the difference between the new polly pockets - tiny version and the old/vintage ones?

They like to play with the Playmobil and all the other stuff we have (and we have a lot of toys  ), but there is something exciting and special about the vintage Polly Pockets, maybe it's because they are so tiny and the houses are so detailed, maybe it's because we don't keep them with all the other toys so they have limited access to them, maybe it's a combination of both...
I'm not saying they play with it longer than the other toys, but to me it seems the Polly Pockets have a certain charm and my kids really enjoy them. Of course, different kids like different stuff, not every kid would necessarily like to play with them... |
I've found the same. Ds9 always liked them, too, but dd7, 5, and 3 now really enjoy them! In fact, the other day dd5 had a new friend over and they were pretty bored. I suggested Polly Pockets and they had a ball!
My girls got a couple of new modern ones as a gift recently and they're just not as interesting. Maybe it's the specific sets they got. My girls like homes with babies and these new ones were just a bowling alley and car wash. So more interesting accessories but not so fun for them. Are there new ones with babies and playgrounds and stuff?

Ok guys it now says that my order has actually shipped. But I’m honestly still suspicious because the original listing said it ships from France and the tracking says the item shipped from Australia… it’s also a store with no reviews lol. I guess I’ll just have to wait and see.

I’m thinking it’s possible maybe only a few of the pictured sets will arrive. In which case I’ll dispute the sale since the listing never mentions that not all the pictured items are included.

Etsy emailed me that the sellers shop just closed and so I may have issues with my order. Definitely suspicious. They reassured me I would be refunded if anything goes wrong. I checked the tracking number again and it certainly seems like SOMETHING has been shipped from Australia and is in transit. What it is, who knows  So I’m not placing much hope but we’ll see what ends up arriving, if anything!

Seems suspicious.
Do sellers have access to credit card numbers?

No they have no access to anything like that. Etsy is a safe platform. It seems like this seller uploaded a few Polly pocket listings to his account this week, sold them all that day, and has now shut his account. It’s super suspicious of course. I figured it was too good to be true The collection that I bought for $165 (it was listed at around $320 but had a 50% off coupon, idk if that discount came from the seller or from Etsy) could have actually sold for $1k+.

That’s disappointing! I was also waiting for you to get it!
There’s something bigger and better out there for you
