Visit DansDinosaurs.com for photos and pricing.



In the interest of practicality, all available inventory will now be posted on our main store website. This thread will be used for special announcements, exclusive discounts, and games.


--------------------

Discounts
To redeem a discount, simply make a note that you wish to use it toward a purchase when contacting me.

Art Trades
Due to the cost of maintaining an active inventory, I will no longer be accepting trades for artwork exclusively. Artwork may only be used as partial payment toward a purchase in some circumstances.

Placing Orders
To place an order, simply visit the store website DansDinosaurs.com. Special discounts and prizes can be redeemed via PM or e-mail. However, e-mail is the preferred method, since the forum's messaging system can be unreliable. Thanks!

Contests and Games

Current Game: Name the Dino (aka Stickersaurs)

From time to time, I will be including dinosaur stickers on the outside of a mailing package. If you can correctly identify the species shown on the sticker, you'll earn a free bonus gift, which may range from extra discounts to free figures! Just post your sticker dinosaur's species in this thread when it arrives.

All other games will be posted in this thread at unscheduled intervals. Winners may redeem their prizes at any time, so long as they meet the conditions stated in the game. Only one discount-prize may be redeemed per purchase, no combining discounts.

Anyone who wants to buy the mammoth pair, let me know as soon as possible - I have just the one pair available, with no plans to order more in the near future.

You trade things for custom art? I think I can give you your fix there ;D

[Tyrannax]

I love the better deals. If I need to buy any of those in the future, I'm sure you will be the cheapest to go through.

One toy store in particular is going to give you a run for your money though.....

Good luck to you and your business.

[Dan]

I've searched the web, and no one has given us a run for our money so far.

Got this message from a customer today - it was so cute, I had to share it:

"...could I add a Papo pachycephalosaurus to the order? My daughter doesn't have a 'buntosaurus' as she calls them yet, and hopefully if she has one to play with she'll stop imitating them without giving me prior warnng (ouch)."

The latest shipment of Safari Ltd. figures has arrived at Dan’s Dinosaurs, to be made immediately available to all members of the Dinosaur Toy Forum at exclusive discount pricing. This shipment features some of the latest and greatest from the Wild Safari line, which has recently developed high quality figures that can easily compete with Safari’s infamous Carnegie Collection.

The featured figure of this shipment is, as you may surmise, the hotly anticipated Wild Safari Postosuchus. This is easily the best rendition of the quadrupedal carnivore I have ever seen – folks will remember this species as one of the starring animals in the first episode of Walking With Dinosaurs. Of course, it is far superior to the rigidly-postured, sloppily-painted Postosuchus figure from the WwD toy line.

Simple as that. Oh, and Dan’s Dinosaurs does not approve of illegal drug smuggling, particularly when innocent Chinasaurs are dragged into it. It’s just wrong.

Darn.

Man, I'm on the verge of ordering that Postosuchus. I'll have to round up some money though.

Almost forgot:

Wild Animal Panorama Mug

A tasteful gift and an affordable alternative to the giant panoramic poster from which the mug acquired its design. Obviously we can get you the poster as well, if anyone is interested.

Standard Retail Price: $10+ after Exorbitant Shipping Fees
Dan’s Dinosaurs Price: $9 with Free Shipping in US
Bulk Order Special: With any purchase of $30 or more, add this elegant mug to your order for just $5.

Retired Product - No longer in manufacturing, Extremely Limited Supply

1. Post your list of desired figures (name and quantity), which can include any combination of items from the full inventory.

I'd like all business to be conducted via PM or email please, for the sake of members' privacy and to reduce cluttering up the forum. Thanks

[Dan]

Yes, stone. The leptoceratops legions emerge from the packaging late at night, and conduct patrols around my living room. You must save me.

Adjusted the instructions for PM. That work better? Also, is it still alright for me to announce new shipments on this thread?

New items:

Purchase official Dan's Dinosaurs merchandise from our Cafe Press store and receive big discounts on your next purchase. Our merchandise includes specialized clothing (in a variety of styles, sizes, and colors), as well as bags, beverage holders, bumper stickers, and more!





I've purchased a few for myself already (quality assurance, you know!), and believe me, I would not promote these items if they were of anything less than excellent quality. Just let me know when you place your next order that you want a "T-Shirt Discount", for example, and enjoy the savings!

Question:

What travels in three huge boxes and weighs 60 pounds?

Answer:

A thousand dollars worth of Carnegies, of course!

Inventory has been updated with many new Carnegie figures. Send a PM if you see any you'd like, along with anything else from the inventory (and be sure to mention items you want that we may have only discussed privately, just to be sure they make it into the same shipment). Prices are standard retail with free shipping, as always.
