I just wanted to add my "2 cents" on the Pont Levis swing.
I ordered one a few weeks ago when they were initially on sale .. I was a bit hesitant, as even on sale .. as we all know .. it is still not an inexpensive bird item, and being in the US, I knew shipping would be a bit higher than usual.
That being said, I can honestly say I have no clue how Jacqueline can offer these swings at that $49.99 price. I'm fairly handy .. will drills, saws, dremels, and love taking apart toys, redoing them, and figuring out how they were made and duplicating them myself.
There is no way to duplicate this swing for $49.99, truly, it is a masterpiece.
I'm a bit of a "bird toy snob", and hyper critical of designs and parts used. There usually aren't many toy makers that can impress me to be honest, but, Rosie Toys has blown me out of the water.
I'm fortunate enough to live in an area that has at least 1 or 2 bird fairs a month .. so I have the opportunity to examine a lot of "private" toy maker's wares, ranging from crazy expensive to ridiculously inexpensive. I have found that the old cliche "you get what you pay for" holds pretty true.
Rosie Toys ranks up there with the likes of ..
Grey Feather Toys
8 Beaks
Mother Pluckin'
TNT
Chopper's Boings
Avian Antics
I consider these places some of the finest resources for "hand made" type bird toys .. unique, quality parts, well thought out designs .. and of course .. "bird tested". I also consider the customer service/communication at all these shops <with one exception> to be excellent. Besides having great toys, customer service is something extremely important to me, I'd rather pay a little more for something, and know my business matters, than save a few cents and feel like nothing more than an invoice number or dollar sign.
I loved my Pont Levis swing so much .. I ordered another one, as well as some other Rosie toys.
Jacqueline has definitely earned a place in my "TOP 10" .. not only are her toys magnificent .. her customer service is flawless.
