As some of you know, I started a 'Haunted Carnival' yard haunt last year. In my carnival, I have a side show tent. I've been looking for some good sideshow gaffs on the internet, that were reasonable. I finally found this seller on Ebay - 'neald123'. I bought 2 off of him last Wednesday, and received them on Saturday (fast shipping!!!). They were both listed as 'Buy It Now', and were great prices. One is a Fiji Mermaid (7" long) ($10.99 + $2.80 s/h), and the other is a Fairie Mummy (7"x7") ($15.99 + $4.80 s/h). The quality of these two items is outstanding. I wish I could afford to buy some of his others. Take a look on Ebay if you are looking for some high quality gaffs, that are a great value. I love these things. They are made from an epoxy resin & polymer clay and are hand painted. From what I've seen, the listings show the actual item being sold.

Wow! I am definitely checking that out. I saw the pics of these in the Purchases thread and I absolutely love them. Pretty good price too Thanks for posting!
Keep checking back. It seems like he sells them as he makes them. The original fairie that I was going to buy was sold and he wound up putting up another like the next day or so. Also, each one that I've looked at (of each type) have been different. The fairie I orginally was looking at had more fly-like wings with veins and such. They had holes in them to make it look old and falling apart. Very very cool. I'm glad you bought one. You won't be disappointed. Let me know what you think when you get it.

I got my mermaid in yesterday, It's so authentic I didn't want to touch it lol. And it takes a lot to make me grossed out. I love it!
That's so funny. The same thing happened to me when I pulled them out of the box. I told my wife that they were turning my stomach, and that is saying alot.
I'm glad you like it. The guy is a master.
