jiggy 3,209 Posted April 18, 2017 Report Share Posted April 18, 2017 I used to collect stuffed animals until I offered a lad for free a stuffed stags head that cost me 500 to get done. He told me he didn't want it lol I was disgusted.These items are worth sentimental value only. The 5000 euro collection isn't worth 5000 when you go to sell them or even half the value. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
