Thursday, December 28, 2006Beatrix Potter Book Shelf Recently I was going to bid on a bookshelf containing 23 of Beatrix Potter's books, all hardcover and all but one with dust covers. By the end of the auction it brought in $138, not including the s/h charges and since I am but a big fan of her work, not a diehard one, I decided to save my bid for something else. The book shelf was very cute though it showed some slight damage on the side of it. But the shelf itself is likely over two decades old as well.  A new version of this book shelf, however, can be found on Amazon for significantly less. However a reviewer of this product on the UK Amazon site states, "It looks for the world like it was made in some sweat shop in Thailand. There are no marks either to suggest/certify/warrant that it is safe for children (the main gift recipient for this type of product), no CE mark etc. Not Impressed - Save your money, buy a saw - make your own..." What a great idea! ^_^
