  Hot by United Colors of Benetton for Women is a great fragrance for anyone looking for a nice light scent, nothing overpowering or heavy. And you cannot beat the price. Love it!

  I've used this perfum for about 12 years, and this one I just got doesn't smell like the others. I'm really disappointed, and the worst part: It can't be returned.

  I bought "Hot"'s counterpart "Cold" for myself and loved it so much and thought I'd try Hot as well since it is supposedly also unisex. After a sniff I definately discovered while Cold might be unisex, Hot is very feminine. Luckily I thought it smelled trendy enough that my sister would like it and she did! I must admit it smells good, very rich and floral. I love that it is so cheap and smells so expensive. I always recommend testing a perfume before buying it (they smell differently on all skin types) but at this price I couldn't resist and I won't critique you if you don't either. Trust me, both Hot and Cold smell fantastic.. Hot is perhaps even better, but only for women.. Cold is great for either.

  This review is from: Harry Potter Slime Chamber Playset w Glow-In-The-Dark Slime (2001) (Toy)
  I'm showing my age here, but this used to be a He-Man toy! I have not even heard of this for Harry Potter (Kirk Hinrich, dang I hate KU), but I saw this advertised here and it is exactly the same thing I had when I was 6 years old and played with He-Man action figures.
  That slime is really gross and it feels really weird. Word of advice: this will make for some interesting hours of fun with your "action figures," but just don't get the slime on the carpet, or at least, don't let your children play with it alone in their room on the carpet. Invariably, they will do what I did with the same toy and leave it the slime ON THE CARPET, and it will harden and you will never get it up. I'm serious!
  This toy has no educational value, but I guess its better than sticking them in front of a PS2 and allowing them to steal cars with Grand Theft Auto. But I digress...
  I had fun with this when I was a kid (for He-Man at least), so I'm sure other kids now will have fun. Just don't get it on the carpet!

  This review is from: Cristalle by Chanel for Women 0.13 oz Eau de Toilette Miniature Collectible (Misc.)
  I bought this on the spur of the moment for a girl I had just met in 1985. I was 24 and she 22. It was spring and love was in the air. For me, Cristalle is the smell of young love in May: hope and promise, life and joy. Alas, time moved on, and I had a small sample vial that I carried for years, ultimately lost in a move. Once more I bought this for a young lady with whom I came close, but again, we moved on. I have not smelled this scent in over 20 years.
  
  I plan on gifting this to the lady in my life who brings me joy once more, and whose beauty mirrors that of Cristalle.

  This review is from: Harry Potter Kubrick Mystery/Blind Box - ONE RANDOM FIGURE ONLY (Toy)
  I agree, I would not have paid $13 for one of these dolls. I thought I was getting all seven. The recommendation with this is also confusing where they bundled it with other Harry Potter toys. I guess I shouldn't trust the recommendations so much in the future.

  I also was lead to believe - by the picture - that I was going to receive all of the figures. This was a gift for the top of a cake and now it is totally ruined - one figure? They should change the picture.

As a fan of American comic books and related paraphernalia, I really enjoyed this book. True, it perhaps bit off more than it could chew, but what the heck, it was a really good effort on the part of the authors, who have written on everything from fast food toys, to action figures to non-sport trading cards and comic books. What this book really needs, however, is an update. With the explosion (and implosion) of the late ’90s in the comic book field, and the new comic book movies of the early 21st century, I’m sure that there is a ton more stuff that could be added.

How to get the most for your collectibles NEW YORK Maybe running out of room to store that extensive collection of Star Wars action figures. Or maybe just ready to trade in your great grandmothers china for something a little more modern. Either way, its important to assess the real value of your collectibles before you put them on the market. step-by-step guide to selling your collectibles at a fair price 1.Get some free advice. Many antiques and collectibles dealers are willing to authenticate pieces free of charge. Call a shop in your area to see if it offers this service. But resist the temptation to sell your valuables to the dealer without verifying the price they quote or you may not get the best deal. 2.Consult price lists. To ascertain the real value of your item, Consumer Reports recommends visiting your local library and consulting collectible price guides, such as the Kovels Antiques & Collectibles Price Guide 2007 and Collectibles Price Guide 2007. Common Antiques Price Guide Mistakes You are always better using a specialized guide than a generic guide. For example a price guide listing all pottery made in the US will not be as accurate as a book listing only Fiesta dishes. Guides must have depth. There are a large number of small "pocket price guides" on the market. Most of these do not list variations. If you are researching prices on a collectible where variation affect the value, you must use a guide that lists these variations. I once bought a $1500 item for my collection from a dealer for $125 because the dealer was too cheap to buy a detailed price guide. Some yearly guides are updated by changing the values mathematically. These lazy publishers just multiply every price in the guide by 1.05 or some other number to get the new process. In any category of collectibles, values do not change based on interest rates or other economic indicators. Values change based only on supply and demand. Many inexperienced price guide users concentrate on the higher prices. Remember, price is dependent on condition. Reading only the highest price is misleading. F orgetting they are price guides. Many antiques and collectibles dealers seem to forget the guides are only guides and base all their pricing on them. Price guides are only one component of researching items. You must have a knowledge base to draw on in addition to the guides. Reliability Security Helping buyers and sellers feel safe is important for online auction services. Sellers should have control over their auctions and bidders should have assurance that they are buying from a reputable source. Most online auction sites utilize a feedback system where sellers and buyers can rate each other based on transaction experiences. Checking out a users feedback helps potential bidders and sellers evaluate other members reputation and credibility. Help Support Auction services should provide receptive and comprehensive customer support through several methods including email, live chat, telephone and FAQs.
