    I don't know much about children's toys but i'd say you could make a profit - when i saw the pic i thought it'd be £15 - 20 - I guess it depends if you're local etc so can avoid p&p. Bet you could get rid of it for £12 + at a bootsale...?
    Just £10,852.28p to go...

    :D

    Trust that little voice in your head that says "Wouldn't it be interesting if...";
    And then do it.
