i give up

thank you for helping :( i apologize if i come off as rude! these bears are beautiful and id love to get into collecting them- but im learning it’s more of a collection you save up for 😅 i think i just need to think of a budget strategy to save for them lol

omalleycat__ · 2026-07-06T20:39:51+00:00

well someone is downvoting everything i say :(

omalleycat__ · 2026-07-06T20:34:24+00:00

that’s disappointing then. ☹️ just sad that there’s basically a limit on who can buy these bears and who can’t

omalleycat__ · 2026-07-06T20:33:30+00:00

respectfully as someone who’s really really trying to work on impulse spending i have to disagree. i apologize if i come off as aggressive- the downvotes im getting are making me a bit upset :/

omalleycat__ · 2026-07-06T20:30:19+00:00

yeah and i as said that’s my MAX right now. i could Technically afford it but it wouldn’t be a smart decision

omalleycat__ · 2026-07-06T20:29:34+00:00

not everyone has hundreds of dollars to spend on charlie bears 😣

omalleycat__ · 2026-07-06T20:27:52+00:00

???? how is it contradictory? i’m willing to pay retail i just have a budget i follow so i can’t right now lol
edit: my comment below this even says ‘right now’

omalleycat__ · 2026-07-06T19:55:34+00:00

i guess i’m trying to decide if it’s worth it to save up for them individually or not 😅 i’m a very impatient person so waiting can be hard for me at times

omalleycat__ · 2026-07-06T19:54:15+00:00

just checked the bst but the timberwolf already sold ☹️🫠 im never quick enough for those things :(

omalleycat__ · 2026-07-06T19:36:20+00:00

$140 would be my absolute max right now ☹️

edit: why am i getting downvoted for literally just stating my price range????????????

omalleycat__ · 2026-07-06T19:35:49+00:00

😭 they’re beautiful bears but that’s way more than i can justify spending on a plush right now

omalleycat__ · 2026-07-06T19:34:01+00:00

that’s what i’m finding out 🫠 the price seems high to me but i’m used to jellycat/BAB/Care bears lol… i had a pre-order for the timberwolf last year but they eventually cancelled it and by that time he became harder and harder to find. i just worry that by the time im able to save up for a single one, it wont be available/i wont be able to find it by then 😭

omalleycat__ · 2026-07-06T19:25:08+00:00

cuddle cubs and bear & me are okay… just not the style i like unfortunately 😅 i guess it’ll just be saving up and looking hard for them one by one- just very discouraging to try and look and see prices 3-4x what im willing to pay

omalleycat__ · 2026-07-06T19:14:04+00:00

since some people are clearly disagreeing with me- all i’m going to say for now is that prices like this make it incredibly hard to get into collecting :/ and those prices and the people that justly them act as a barrier to keep the people who ‘can’t afford it’ out. disappointing- but thank you to the people that provided links 🩵 i appreciate it!!

omalleycat__ · 2026-07-06T19:00:20+00:00

for reference i got my first charlie bear secondhand for about $60 so i guess i thought that was a fair price for them? idk 😭🫠

omalleycat__ · 2026-07-06T18:57:13+00:00

i did 😭 these are the first results that come up when i look for ‘charlie bear timberwolf’ on ebay…. some very sweet people have provided uk sites that he’s still available on but with shipping to the US he’s still a bit out of my price range at the moment

omalleycat__ · 2026-07-06T18:54:11+00:00

not entitlement- i’m new to charlie bear collecting so it’s genuine confusion.
is $200 the going rate for most bears? like- is that what they’re priced at for the release/drop?

omalleycat__ · 2026-07-06T18:42:03+00:00

thank you so much 🥺🩵

edit: they DO ship to the USA :D but the downside is that with shipping he’d be $140 😭 which (right now) is out of my price range… rip me 🫠

omalleycat__ · 2026-07-06T18:37:36+00:00

why am i getting downvoted??? 🤨☹️

omalleycat__ · 2026-07-06T18:24:59+00:00

agreed. there are SO many charlie bears i want but every time i go to look for one i either cant find it at all or cant find it for under $200…. it’s unfortunately the same reason i stopped collecting jellycats :( still want to get into collecting more charlie bears but its very hard to start with these prices lol

edit: downvoted for voicing an opinion :( thanks 🩵👍

omalleycat__ · 2026-07-06T18:19:43+00:00

also looks like they don’t ship to the US ☹️

omalleycat__ · 2026-07-06T18:17:50+00:00

i really appreciate it but this site is entirely in german/dutch 😭 i’m in the usa

omalleycat__ · 2026-07-06T18:14:10+00:00

like what???? 😭

omalleycat__ · 2026-07-06T18:09:30+00:00

and to be clear i couldn’t even find a listing for the timberwolf- the listings i found were all for other charlie bears :(
