Flag from Schleich is coming in.....

On Saturday I went with my son in a small toy store, because one of his friends has birthday and so we are looking for a birthday gift.
In the window hung a large flag from Schleich.
I told the seller, that this is indeed a very beautiful flag for the shop window and it is a pity, that such nice flags are not for buying.
She said, that these flags are only for businesses, then she got a chair, climbed on a chair, cut with scissors the flag of the wall, she curled up, rose from the chair and said: Here you go, it´s for you, it´s gift!
Wow, I was just speechless! A joke ? This is something, I've never experienced either in a toy shop!.
You can imagine, how much I was delighted.
I have no place to hang the flag in the house, but I will keep well in my "Schleich-archive". Here it is, flag is about 140cm long, tiger shows the size:

That is a one of a kind find. Congrats!

Gosh ! Wow !!!!

You are so lucky ! What an enormously kind shopkeeper

CONGRATULATIONS, dear Yvette !!!! You deserve that gift (o)): (o)):

Mighty fine merchandise just there

After your post, I still have hope for humanity.

That is great! A big hug from me to the shop seller.

It's dejavu for me , congrats (o)): I can understand the emotional excitement when we collectors experience such surprise gifts that too from the shop people

Thank you all! Yes, the joy getting a gift in a shop is greater than if you buy something. Not because only, you have saved money.
Not only because, I have got something that isn´t for sale.
But that is special - a seller, who gives something to a buyer without money, just to make a gift. That's the beauty of the thing.
