Vintage Playmobil #3773 Fort Bravo Complete/NEAR MINT! (F) (retired) Vintage Playmobil #3773 Fort Bravo Complete/NEAR MINT! (F) (retired) (More photos below) Here for your consideration is an exciting, vintage, Playmobil #3773 Fort Bravo play set. The third in a series of different forts produced by Playmobil (e.g. Fort Union in 1976-1980, Fort Randall 1981-83/84), Fort Bravo entered the scene between 1988-1993. This set is VHTF complete and in this condition (NEAR MINT). It was retired in 1993. This set complimented Playmobil's expansive Western-themed collection consisting of Native American villages, train sets, buildings (e.g. a Drug Store, School, Saloon, Sheriff's Office, Church, Train Station, Ranches, Homes, Gold Mining Camps etc.), conveyances (e.g. Covered Wagons, Stage Coaches, Armored Treasure Wagons, horse and buggies etc.), and assorted characters (e.g. bandits, sheriff, miners, train passengers, homesteaders, ranchers etc.). Although Playmobil later introduced some other forts (e.g. Fort Eagle, Fort Glory etc.), these were not as intricate or complex as the Fort Bravo version. Fort Bravo closely resembles those forts that were constructed in the American West during the 1850's-1870's to protect the wagon trains and settlers heading for California or Oregon. Fort Bravo is constructed of sturdy, heavy duty, plastic logs with "cat walks" for soldiers to patrol and keep watch over their domain. There are slots where the soldiers can take aim at any intruders with either their western rifles or pistols. The fort also has a prominent watch tower that can be accessed via a "wooden" ladder. This watch tower allows the "look out" to scan the horizon for any possible combatants. The fort is manned by five soldiers of different ranks (sorry, I don't know what the different stripes signify) and a commanding general. The general inspects his troops while mounted on his impressive steed and wielding his silver sword. Unlike many of these forts, this set includes all of the original accessories (e.g. beer steins, table, wooden chairs, rifle case, mattress and bed etc.). Children may position and play with these accessories by either removing the Headquarter's roof or by manipulating the soldiers and accessories on the roof itself. The front gate of the fort may be secured using a "wooden plank." The latter is often missing in these sets. This set is free of any cracked, broken, or repaired parts. It will be shipped unassembled along with a Xeroxed copy of its original instructions. The set weighs approximately 7 lbs., 7 oz. UNWRAPPED. My location is Lafayette, IN (47905). I will probably be shipping this set via Fed Ex Home Delivery. In order to do this, I must have a residential address and contact phone number (e.g. home, cell, or work place). Fed Ex will not deliver to a P.O. Box or without an accompanying contact phone number. See my other listings for more great items! PayPal is the preferred manner of payment. All payments are due within 5 business days of the listing's conclusion. I also accept bank-issued Cashier's Checks and Postal Money Orders. Due to my bank's policies, I am unable to ship your item until these forms of payment clear my bank (usually within 3 business days). Please contact me if you would like to pay via a Cashier's Check or a Postal Money Order. Shipping Policy The price listed is for the item itself. The total amount due will be the purchase price of the item + the ACTUAL shipping cost to deliver your item to you. All shipping costs or extra fees (in the case of Canadian shipments) are the responsibility of the buyer. I will do everything in my power to find you the cheapest shipping rate—-whether it’s the USPS (First Class, Parcel, or Priority), Fed Ex, or UPS. I DO NOT PAD MY SHIPPING COSTS—-NEVER HAVE AND NEVER WILL! I SHIP WITHIN 48 HOURS OF A CLEARED PAYMENT. I primarily utilize Fed Ex Home Delivery for items exceeding 5 lbs. in weight, measuring greater than 12 inches in any dimension, or traveling longer distances. I’ve been finding Fed Ex has been running @33% cheaper than the USPS (including Parcel Post) and UPS Ground. FYI, another benefit of using either Fed Ex or UPS is that their quote includes up to $100 worth of FREE insurance. Additional amounts of insurance may be purchased for a nominal fee (that is much less than the USPS). Fed Ex also provides automated tracking updates re: your parcel’s whereabouts directly to your personal e-mail account. In order to ship Fed Ex (or UPS for that matter), I MUST have a residential or work place address, NOT a P.O. Box number, as well as a home or cell phone. Otherwise, they will not accept the shipping paperwork or transport your item. Since Bonanza's shipping calculator does NOT offer Fed Ex Home Delivery as a shipping option, PLEASE DO NOT SEND PAYMENT UNTIL I HAVE HAD AN OPPORTUNITY TO MANUALLY CHECK THESE RATES AND INSERT THEM INTO YOUR INVOICE. Otherwise, the shipping calculator may overcharge you. Packages traveling to Alaska or Hawaii will be shipped Parcel Post via the USPS. Insurance and delivery confirmation are required. I’m more than willing to combine multiple purchases into one box whenever it is safe to do so to decrease your shipping costs. Once again, PLEASE wait to check out until I can combine your purchases on ONE INVOICE and can calculate their combined shipping rate via Fed Ex. If you pay for these items separately, I get charged multiple transaction fees by PayPal plus you get over-charged on your shipping. Of course, I will refund you any amount over $1.00 that you've overpaid on shipping. However, it's easier on both of us if you wait until I can send you the correct amount. I’m more than happy to ship selected play sets to Canada. Remember that shipping to Canada can be quite expensive so please contact me for a shipping quote before you purchase an item. I will attempt to find the cheapest shipping rate possible. Canadian customers will be responsible for any brokerage fees, Custom’s duties, or VAT’s imposed by your government. I am not responsible for these charges. Insurance is required for all international shipments. Last, but not least, I offer a 10% discount for orders totaling $125.00 or more. ALL SALES ARE FINAL. NO RETURNS ARE ACCEPTED. I have attempted to bring any noted "imperfections" to your attention prior to your purchasing the item. However, I'm only human. If I have missed something or you have a problem with your purchase, please contact me prior to leaving feedback. Customer satisfaction is #1 for me. I try to provide outstanding service, high quality merchandise, and secure and expedient shipping. Feedback is important and I will be happy to leave you feedback once I know everything has arrived safely and that you are pleased with your purchase. Leaving me feedback helps me gauge how well I'm doing and also serves the Bonanza community by directing them to sellers who proffer outstanding merchandise and service. txzj pxzj2038 txzj71
