    I just had to tell you this. I always like to check on what sock monkeys are selling on Ebay and was totally shocked to see that a Rockford monkey had just sold yesterday in the USA for £98.71. Nothing particularly special about him, other than he had an embroidered bit on his arm that looked like a tattoo. Now that would make it worth while selling them, wouldn't it !!

    I sell most of my monkeys via Ebay. I also sell on Folksy and Misi too, but Ebay is my best sales.

    Hey everyone...

    Brilliant monkeys as usual!! I really need to get my sewing machine out and have a go at them! I am hoping they look like a monkey and not a mess lol!

    You're all an inspiration, thank you.

    What does everyone sell their monkeys for roughly??? x

    I have made the Rockford monkeys also and sell them on Ebay, but not for £98 unfortunately.
