Hey everyone, I'm feeling a bit bummed because my little bear JoJo on Bearpile hasn't sold. I think he's absolutely amazing, and a lot of work went into him, and yet no one seems interested.  bear_sad  I lowered his price and that did nothing at all. If anyone has some constructive criticism for him, or any ideas to help me get him sold, I'm all ears!   He's listed on my Bearpile if you want to have a look at his pictures, or he's in the Bears section somewhere amongst all the other lovely looking bears, may have to dig for him  bear_tongue Thanks!

JoJo is a cutie!   :love:

Don't be too discouraged.  We were talking about the economy and its effect on Bear adoption.  Patience is key.

And, don't forget!  One of a Teddy Bear's best qualities is patience!  bear_laugh

I see that the lovely Beth bear did sell, though. I think that people are holding onto their money now, or spending it on groceries and things like that. (I'm appalled at how quickly I can spend $100 these days, and how little I have to show for it.)

Anyway, I think JoJo and all your bears are terrific. Don't stop now. bear_flower

Thanks for the encouraging words ladies, I'll keep my chin up and wait. He's just too cute not to find a loving home  bear_wub  Though I wouldn't mind the excuse of keeping him in my own hug for a while longer, hehe.  bear_tongue

JoJo is adorable.  I like him very much.  I do think it is just the way things are right now.  There are a lot of bears for sale on Bear Pile and ebay.  We all just have to wait for the right person to come along.

Dear Shannon I too have a lot of bears actually on bear-pile, they are all looking out for a new home and I think, they aren't so bad too. But as already said - economy is actually very very bad - and people keep their money back. But I'm sure time will change and our lovely bears may find the right home out in the world.

And don't worry , your little Jojo is really very cute and just perfect with his little horse ....  bear_thumb

Hi Shannon!

Your bear Jojo looks terrific plus the photos are very good. I also think that people just cannot afford treating themselves with our bears. So just enjoy him while he is still in your hug and his timewill come eventually.

Beary hugs,
Sophie.
