Help Required (Not mini related and specifically for th UK)

[Hoblit]

Right here is the situation I find myself in. I started my fiancee collecting the metoyou teddy bears. If you don\'t know what these are then look here.

Now she has her heart set on getting the little bride and groom for the top of the wedding cake to be the same teddy bears. Now I have found them on the site here.

The ones I am looking for would be either the two separate models right at the front, or the two sitting down on the left or right.

Now, here\'s the problem. While we have quite a range of these bears in South Africa, I have yet to see these particular ones. So if any of you could do me a huge favour the next time you are near a clinton cards store, could you see if you can get these and what the cost would be. and please let me know if you would be willing to get them and send them over. I would happily reimburse any costs incurred.

Thanks in advance

I will have a look in Clintons tomorrow I can go to Leicester or Nottingham we have one here in Melton too so I should be able to track them down.
If I do I will get them and PM you to let you know.
I will send them if I find them and you can have them as a wedding gift from my wife and I congrats.

Hi there, it worries me that i can answer this of the top of my head, but:
You can get the smaller ones for £8.99 and the bigger ones for £17.
Just weighed the smaller one [my gf has one] and they weigh 1/4 kilo in the box, from that you shoulod be able to work out costs.
I\'d offer to do it if you put the money in my paypal account, but i\'m new to the forums and therefore you might not want to risk that. [i could be both a cad and a bounder ]

As an aside, i\'m pretty sure you\'d be able to order them online directly...

I really am a sucker for cute gesture type things, so:

Is a link to those bears on Clintons website and they list international postage as an option.

Please don\'t ever tell anyone that i tried to be helpful...
