Do you want Jasmine's Bradford Group Collectibles,
but don't live in the US? there's still hope!
I know many of you live in countries all over the world - and I'm very happy that people everywhere appreciate my work and want my collectibles from the Bradford Group! Now, I don't work for the Bradford Group nor do I have any sort of say in how the company is run in different countries, or what their shipping policies or international availability are. Even if you send me sad emails, I don't have any access to information other than what you see on the internet yourself, I am sorry! However I have made this handy page to do my best to help international customers get in on the collecting!
Okay - now for the rest of the planet! Here's the lowdown - in the beginning, my Bradford collectibles go through several stages of availability over many months. First they are testmarketed in select areas determined by the Bradford Group. If things go well, they then begin accepting pre-orders through the mail, telephone, and on their website(s). These stages originate here in the US. Then after the pre-ordering stage, the collectibles slowly start being available in other ways, on the International Bradford websites (see below), through some mail & phone orders in other countries, and finally (and importantly) through re-sellers, second-hand sellers, and various affiliates.
The best, most efficient way to collect my Bradford Collectibles is to go to the source - the official Bradford International Websites. Not every country has their own Bradford website yet, but they are working on that all the time. Even if your country doesn't have an official Bradford website - don't worry - there are other options too, so keep reading. PLEASE NOTE: many of the official international sites may not yet have my items on the website, it takes months sometimes to get them up there. However you can EMAIL or CALL them sometimes and they can hook you up! Here is a list of some of the official international websites (click the links, search "Jasmine" - or else just go to their Contact Us pages to get the email or phone numbers to ask for Jasmine Becket-Griffith collectibles):
Again - those websites above may not yet technically have my products there, but if you CALL them on the phone or email them - look at the Contact pages and FAQs on their websites above. You may be able to order on the phone or by mail, just ask them. If not, pass on the word that you want them to stock up on Jasmine Becket-Griffith collectibles, and maybe if enough folks ask - they will! Again, emailing ME doesn't help - I don't have any say or access to anything you don't, lol. I'm just the artist!
Okay - don't see your country listed above? Don't give up! First try Tiffany at The Realm. She is a GODSEND for international folks wanting my merchandise all over the world. Seriously. She is located in Canada but ships to many other countries as well. Do you have questions? Requests? See if Tiffany or others at The Realm can help you! Email them HERE : therealm@shaw.ca and maybe they can help you out. Even if you don't see it on their website, they may have it on order.
Couldn't find it from Bradford or from The Realm? Did you try emailing and calling everybody above? Another option is eBay! Some folks order the Hamilton and Bradford Collection collectibles and sell them (usually new, still in the packaging) on eBay and many will ship all over the world! Here's a quick search link to get you started - try different key words and advanced search options on eBay.com and you will most certainly find even more.
Still can't find the figurine you're looking for? It is probably just a matter of TIME. You may have seen the virtual images of it online and it still hasn't even gone into production. The test-marketing and advertisements may start many months before the factory produces and ships the collectibles. It is a long process - it begins first with my sketches or paintings. Then sculptors begin in clay - I approve the clay stages and then resin (or whatever material the collectible is) production begins. Then there are the painted versions for me to approve, and then the edition begins and they collectibles are made and shipped. Even if you have seen the virtual pics online or in ads, it may be many months before the actual products appear for ordering online or on eBay or imported into secondary markets. So if you see a picture or ad I have posted online for example, just wait awhile before expecting to see somebody selling it online or on eBay! You may see others you want to order in the meantime.
Or another case may be that the item has sold out. Limited Edition means exactly that - quantities are limited. Sometimes only a small number of a collectible may be made, which means you are less likely to find them on the websites and may have to resort to second-hand or resellers or eBay. Very small or short editions can be very rare and valuable to collectors.
Another option to consider (I know many folks do this!) - get a friend, internet buddy, or penpal who lives in the US or any of the other countries where the official Bradford site or catalogue ships to, and have them order for you! Be sure to cover their shipping costs and expenses. Maybe you can return the favour by sending them treats or products available only in your country.
PLEASE NOTE - I do not have my Bradford Collectibles in stock nor am able to sell them at any time. As the artist, I only get one or two of each collectible, and I keep them for myself! If I am lucky enough to get two, I give the spare to my mom or my sisters or something. I can't order them for your or on your behalf, I am sorry. And again - emailing me doesn't help as far as ordering Bradford collectibles - you will need to contact them directly! Even just to tell them that you wish they offered a certain item in your country, or if you have suggestions for them - they always appreciate your feedback. If they get enough requests they may even change things for the better or be more accommodating in the future. Thank you so much all - I hope that this page has helped a bit!
