To ask if any of you have this Jellycat?

[BluebellJellycat]

A couple of days ago, I won a Jellycat on eBay that I’ve been searching for yet the sale was cancelled after payment due to another buyer offering more.

I am desperately seeking this Jellycat in large size (36cm head to toe) for a young relative. I don’t want to give away too many details as I feel this post is already identifying as I’ve been posting everywhere I can - I have name changed too.

They sell for a lot of money on eBay and I would be willing to pay via PayPal goods and services if anyone had one they would consider selling.

I would really appreciate it! This Jellycat is retired and can no longer be purchased.

Have a look for a UK Shop called one more bear. Not much online but their store is well stocked. Might be worth a call?

@Missmonkeypenny
Thank you so much for your comment, that bunny is a medium as it is a blossom (floral ears) and they didn’t make them in a large. Looking at the profile they also seem very fond of the bunny so I’d feel awful putting them in an awkward position of asking if they’d sell.

I have trouble saying no to people and if someone asked me to sell the bunny I sleep with for example I’d likely let them have it and then struggle to sleep myself for weeks/months! I’m a real people pleaser and I know many others are too.

@JukeBoxHero
Hiya, yep they’ve been mentioned a couple of times but they can’t help unfortunately. Thank you though!

This may have been suggested, or tried, before but here goes: have you tried contacting them to ask if they'd be willing to sell you one even though they've been discontinued?

I used to work for a company that made things by hand and if somebody requested a discontinued item, they would normally do it (unless the fabric was no longer available to them).

I know it might be a long shot, but worth a try?

I'm sorry to see you've still had no luck.

I'm WFH tomorrow so I'll pop down to the charity shops and see if there might be anything going. It's a long shot but it's an area with a lot of posh people around (not me ) so sometimes you find really nice things have been donated!

My DD has a huge collection but no large Bluebell, sorry. Have you tried Asking Bonkers original gift shop in St Andrews (Scotland)?

@SuckingDownDarjeeling
I’ve tried that but thank you anyway! :)

@Lockheart
Thank you! I tried today to see if there’d be anything as consolation but absolutely nothing!

@LeonoraFlorence
Don’t worry, they seem pretty rare! Thank you for the suggestion, I‘ll try them

I take it you have tried Fleurtations?

Are you on the Jellycat buy and sell page on Facebook?
I’m sorry if you are, just in case!

@LeonoraFlorence
Yes, I’m in multiple but I maybe have missed some?
I’m in:
Jellycat buy and sell UK
Jellycats galore
Jellycat collectors U.K.
Jellycat sales worldwide
Jellycat collectors worldwide
Jellycat lovers U.K.
Jellycat Transformations
Jellycat Anonymous
For the love of Jellycats

Thank you for the suggestion though and I’m happy to hear of any groups I’ve missed! And yes I’ve tried fleurtations

Why is it so important?!

Large – BL3BLL

That’s the hang tag code (someone asked above).

@TildaTurnip
I’m not sure if they always do have the same hang tag code or not. I can’t figure it out

@Horehound
it's complex but it’s very much wanted as part of a hobby/special interest

I've just read the whole thread, I was sooo hoping you'd have found one by the time I got to the end. My DD does have Jellycat's, not the one you're looking for, but I'll look in our nearby Jellycat shops. Good luck 🤞

@TonytheDog
Thank you so much! I’d really appreciate that

There is a toy shop in Covent Garden that sells lots of jellycats, it’s called Pollocks. It’s the kind of shop that had stuff for years,
I’m sure you’ve already thought of this but have you tried Harrods & Hamleys?

@nancy75
Contacted both Harrods and Hamleys but not heard from either (yet?). Thanks for the suggestion of pollocks, I’ve dropped them an email

I would phone Harrods, they are usually good (and more likely to rummage round the stockroom for a real person on the phone rather than an email) central London is a ghost town at the moment so the staff will probably have a bit of time to have a good look

OP, one of the USA Etsy store owners I messaged has just come back to me with this statement:

''I believe Jellycat is bringing Bluebell back but not until Easter. Because we placed our order for Easter already.''

I'm not sure I trust that 100%, but that's exactly what they said and seems rather a confident statement!

This is the shop: www.etsy.com/shop/MINEisMine?campaign_label=convo_notifications&utm_source=transactional&utm_campaign=convo_notifications_010170_10683759063_0_0&utm_medium=email&utm_content=&email_sent=1600035092&euid=Y8ZOQWGxPE4h096Hk4YeMbbVDqar&eaid=72135927326&x_eaid=5455b2d07b

@nancy75
I’ll definitely give it a go, thank you!

@FirTree01
That’s strange, I haven’t heard that anywhere else and Jellycat themselves said in an email to me they physically cannot get hold of any.
They’ve reused shade names before such as plum. There’s an old and new plum but they’re pretty different (photos attached) so something similar could be going on here but we’ll see!

At this rate I won’t have found one by easter anyway so I’ll just stay hopeful.

The photos won’t attach for some reason but they’re were from bashfulbunnies.com

^ Tis OK.
