<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Bakersgma, post: 91615, member: 59&quot;]My mother loved bears. She started with Boyd&#039;s, which fortunately weren&#039;t terribly expensive. But then she was attracted by some &quot;ad&quot; to new Stieff &quot;Collectible&quot; ones- paid something like $400 for the 100th Anniversary bear and a similar amount for a Teddy Roosevelt bear (a bear dressed like TR.) I was appalled when I found out. When we moved her into assisted living, TR went with her but the other was part of what was auctioned off. The idiot auctioneer simply did not understand what it was and did not hype it up. He only got $65 for it. And that was only because I was hyperventilating over what she had wasted money on and a fellow standing near me heard and bid it up. The others were all donated to Goodwill.</p><p><br /></p><p>It could have been worse.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
