| I'm going out of business and making 40% off sale of everything. I added a lot of toy parts.
40% off from our already discounted prices! Everything must be sold! Use coupon code: 40% Delivery to continental US only via priority USPS. Check our toy Parts: Lots of items added!
And explanation: As most of you know, I was working part time in a large company. I was offered full time manager position with all benefits and really good salary and health insurance. After not sleeping almost at all during this weekend I had to make decision. They offered cover of all school costs (you know I'm Polish and have English issues).
As much as I loooove making toys, the same much I would like to have some stabilization in my life. I will not be able to do all: full time job which require stay after hours sometimes, going to school and making toys. I will be super busy!
I have to give up making toys [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]
On one hand I'm happy with that opportunity and upset, because I had to make that choice... I had to choose what's best for me. Health Insurance and full benefits won.
To each order, I will add something extra(toy, toy parts). Please let me know what kind of birds are your bosses [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]
I want to thank all customers, who made orders in our store! Thanks [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]

| Congratulations! If stuff is still on sale when we are settled in the new home, I'll probably buy some, especially parts. Make sure to keep enough for your own birdies! | |

| Capt., I always thought it's the other way around...
Thanks, thanks, thanks! Health insurance bits everything in some situations.
I just quick jumped here to tell you, that we're going to vet with Chico first think in the morning. My girl is sick, I will let you know what's wrong asap in the right part of forum. And now going to do orders!
Thanks to Everybody, who place an order!!!! Deb, my fids will still have plenty and there is always Crystal in case and Delta and others, who do the good job! | |

| Margaret - what is the easiest/softest to chew wood you have in your toy parts? I don't know what the different woods are ... I could use a little expert help! | |

| Expert is a way too big word I just checked my wood and I have really nothing soft there already... Even softer pieces of pine was sold. All of those coins are rather for big beaks. I do have balsa. Is almost as soft as yucca, and Crystal like to use it. I just got delivery from distributor. I have $150 bulk price natural balsa wood, not cuted, not dyed, it just came yesterday. If someone is interested, I'm willing to sell those pieces even below price I paid. I ordered it 2 or 3 days before my final decision of closing. I'm also waiting for delivery of bagels and ready toys from one company, which is so busy, that the line of waiting is 6-8 weeks. I'm waiting already 3 weeks(weird, I know)... According to the manager I'm the first one , who paid already & doesn't want to wait for their toys... | |

| Balsa is sweet! Margaret - can you not use some of the balsa for your own birds? It's great for foot toys (Rosco gets the balsa that breaks while cutting/drilling this way) and would be nice to the little beaks Or if someone does buy the balsa off of you (and has a band saw or scroll saw), it should last awhile and is really easy to cut & drill. Pine is softer than Spruce, but has to be cut into 1/4" or smaller widths for smaller beaks (or have grooves started in it to encourage chewing) - Stryder seems to like testing it out so far at this width and he's loving it! Coins are fun for gnawing the bark off of - Stryder (tiel) loves taking the bark off applewood (and any wood) - it keeps him pretty peepy happy! Margaret - maybe you could make an updated list of parts so people can give you more work this weekend? | |

| Ok, last week of sale or should I say "Grand Closing"? [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.] I finally counted my items and they are listed in store. After next week it will be only hard work, school... but health insurance. Something for something. I can't have it all! And some good news: Our toys will not disappear from Market. Delta Holder (owner of Parroteelia Bird Toys) have now all the legal rights to use my ideas in her store. She can rename toys, update them, improve, make any changes she wants. I also wanted to thanks all the people, who believed at me and that list would be long, so to make it short: First of all Crystal-, who gave me a good opinion on AA, when I just started. Thank you very much Crystal! (Besides that, you make my fids happy) Thanks to the all other vendors( Kathie - My Safe Bird Store, Delta - Parroteelia Bird Toys) and others that I have had a privilege to work with. And of course customers, who trusted me and placed orders! [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.] It's hard to leave, when you have returning customers, but at least I know my ideas will be still there!
