Looking to buy an Inflatable Grinch

**christmashelp** · 12-01-2010, 03:59 PM

In years past, we have decorated the house beautifully for Christmas, but vandals have spoiled the magic. We had an Inflatable Grinch as part of our decorations. After he was stolen out of the yard, my dad said he wouldn’t decorate again – whats the point.

Help restore the holiday cheer! I’m looking to purchase a gently used (still working) or new Airborn Inflatable Grinch (By Gemmy, stands about 8ft tall) with or without Max dog (not with sleigh or chimney). If you or someone you know has one and is willing to part with it, or where I can buy one, I'd love to have it.

Thanks!

Hi, you might try Ebay and see if you can find something, here is link to a search I did:

mine isn't an inflatable. I drew and painted one on 3/4" plywood. Looks great. Only problem is that it was stolen last year, so I had to make a new one for this year.

Thanks for the suggestions!

- Pwmcguire - did you have problems with shipping?

- Cparsons2391 - I've tried eBay unsuccessfully. Have you had any success? I've always gotten out bid at the last second.

I paid them for shipping, probably over paid them for shipping, but no problems

I have bought a lot of things from Ebay, I figured out the best bet is to wait till about 10 minutes before and enter the maximum amount you are willing to pay.
