@PlacidPenguin LOL. That belongs in a horror movie coming from the trees on a dark night in the jungle with a full moon with sticks on the ground that are snapping as if someone was walking on them.
Good news, @sammydog01. I found a banana cape monkey (battery pull tab intact) and a giant monkey with black cape. (dead battery) You get these included free of charge! Box is already taped up, so you get them whether you want them or not.
@somf69 I collected a ton of them over the years, including large ones and keychains, and the sock puppet monkey. Mostly went out as Christmas gifts. But I never saw the white one in @medz picture.
@speediedelivery Don’t need it. I’m keeping my 9-10 remaining ‘new’ monkeys and a bottle of anti-monkey-butt powder in a box under the bed until whichever niece or nephew first has a child coming of age to appreciate, then once again becoming the monkey-uncle and mini-deluging them with monkeys at Christmas again. Should be a hoot!
@mehbee I already have a bunch of duplicates and expect to get a lot more- want some? It’s not like I can just dump them at Goodwill like all the other crap I have. They are special.
@medz Monkeys! So many monkeys! And bonus stuff too! Thanks especially for the meh face shirt that I will wear every day because it’s a size small and it’s too big!

just kidding, friend
I used the paypal shipping thing bogie told me about. I picked the slow boat method (USPS Parcel Select) in order to maximize profits. If I did a priority flat-rate, it would have required the large box and I’d have little money to show for my monkey sacrifice.
Nice collection! I hope they go to someone who loves them… or at least tortures their pets and/or children with them.
@Thumperchick I take very good good care of my monkeys. I need them for experiments, uh, I mean I cuddle them every night.
@sammydog01 is that how you make homemade Chunky Monkey ice cream?
These are sold now.
@medz I marked the title sold.
@Thumperchick thanks, you’re amazing
I know these are sold, but are these the slingshot screaming monkeys? If so, I can’t get that sound out of my head.
@Aznatural1 YESSSS! Except some have dead batteries.
@Aznatural1
Indeed. I hope the postal service enjoys handling the box!
@medz
You should put a sticker on the box cautioning that it shouldn’t be dropped.
(1/8 kidding, 3/4 serious, and 1/8 unsure.)
@Aznatural1 A sound file needs uploaded for those of us who have never heard a screaming woot monkey.

@Kidsandliz
As long as this (CAUTION - NOT SAFE FOR HUMANITY) isn’t in the movie.
@medz in unison…oh the possibilities…if only there were more…more screaming slingshot woot monkeys…bhahahahaha
@PlacidPenguin lol
/image good news, everyone

Ugh.

@PlacidPenguin giphy, giohy, goffy, a giphy by any other name is still a screwup.

@medz YESSSS!
/giphy giant screaming monkey
I have a large collection I’m getting ready to sell which includes two of the GIANT size flying monkeys and the glow in the dark ones too.
@somf69 oh yeah… I used to have a giant one…
@somf69 does it still glow in the dark?
@somf69 I started collecting monkeys after the giant ones. My first money purchase was the mini key-chain ones.
@somf69 I collected a ton of them over the years, including large ones and keychains, and the sock puppet monkey. Mostly went out as Christmas gifts. But I never saw the white one in @medz picture.
@duodec The white is glow in the dark. I might have an extra.

@Thumperchick Yes- and it’s super creepy.
All or nothing?
@PlacidPenguin Shipping costs would work out best that way.
Did you have a dollar amount in mind?
@sammydog01 not really. $20 or highest bidder?
@medz I would pay $20 if the shipping is under ten or so additional.
@sammydog01 Cool. So $25 total is good?
@medz Sold! Unless you get a higher bid. I’m sammydog001 at gmail.
@sammydog01 Yay! I’ll email you shortly.
@medz @sammydog01 I would be really sad I missed this but they’re going to a good home!
@mehbee I’m doing some house cleaning and I have some I’d be willing to send you – maybe half the number that medz has? Just pay the postage.
Some scream: others have dead batteries. No glow in the dark monkey. They really need a good home.
@Barney
After you do that, I’d be willing to send you maybe a fraction of what you sent out (I only have 3, though I’m getting a 4th one on Friday).
@PlacidPenguin Nope, nope, nope. You’ve done so much for me already. And one of these days I’m going to figure out a way to repay you.
@Barney
You could start by letting me send you 3 monkeys.
@PlacidPenguin Silly!
@mehbee I already have a bunch of duplicates and expect to get a lot more- want some? It’s not like I can just dump them at Goodwill like all the other crap I have. They are special.
@mehbee I bow to @sammydog01, she probably has a better variety than I do.
@Barney Yeah, keep me in mind!
@sammydog01 That’s right they need to be…cuddled…right? Let me know when you know which ones you want to get a new home for.
@mehbee I will post photos of the survivors, I mean the duplicates, and you can choose.
/giphy monkey battle royale
I don’t recall the white one. Was that an earlier monkey?
How much? Sure hope you didn’t sell them yet.
@thismyusername
They were sold for $25.
@thismyusername
/giphy mine all mine
@sammydog01 Uh, is that the guy from Saw that cuts his own foot off?
/giphy giphy you crazy
Still wondering if you sold these yet, very very interested let me know!
@thismyusername you just missed them. Sorry, pal.
@sammydog01 Check your porch, chum.
@medz Monkeys! So many monkeys! And bonus stuff too! Thanks especially for the meh face shirt that I will wear every day because it’s a size small and it’s too big!
@sammydog01 had I known you were dainty, I would have thrown in other small shirts I’ve acquired.
@medz I wish I could be described as “dainty”.
So y’all are all sending each other flying screaming monkeys.
How much does it cost for each of you to put your own little self into a box and ship your screaming flying self out?
Do y’all splurge for Express Mail or Priority Mail, or do y’all tend to travel by the “slow boat to China” method?

@medz
Is PayPal shipping the same service PayPal offers to EBay sellers? I’ve used that. Hope the interface has improved from 5 years ago.
