I ordered this Santa and when it arrived it was obviously damaged. The box was mailed in a thin mailing envelope which left it to be crushed by other items in delivery. When I opened the package the box was slit on one side and the corners were crushed. I took pictures and sent an email explaining why I was returning this Santa. When I returned this Santa, I paid extra for a sturdy box to make certain it would not receive further damage. My UPS charge was $16.01. I am a collector of these JS Santas and I want my boxes in very good condition should I ever sell them. Had this item been properly packaged, this would not have happened. I asked for a gift card return as a refund would be even less money back on my credit card. I hesitate to order something else in fear of the same mailing conditions. I did order another India Santa from another source and it arrived in perfect condition as it was mailed in a cardboard box with bubble wrap inside and the price was much less from this company. I fee bad about this experience with your company.

Arrived with the time frame I was given and looks wonderful. Great little piece for your village collection

Needs a C battery to light up. Bought It for one of my sons who is a huge Ghostbuster fan. He'll enjoy it for his birthday, real cute.

I love the items of Jim Shore, I especially collect Santas. This robin is for an Irish friend. The robin is a popular bird often associated with Christmas in Great Britain. Symbolism: In folklore, the robin is often seen as a symbol of death and mourning, and interpreted as a comforting sign that a deceased relative is visiting.

He is even more detailed then he appears on the site.
