(Not available.) Selling My Melissa Tail - Mike Van Daal

[MermaidShannon]

This tail is one of the original Melissa tails, it is latex and showing only signs of the latex itself aging on the fluke. You will need to know how to patch latex but the job is very, very minor and with a belt not even noticeable if left alone. The sides have flaps that can be sealed or latex / glued back together from adjustments the previous owner made. It has foot pockets to fit womens size 6-9.
Approx measurements
The hips are 34, waist 28, around butt is 36. I am 5'3 and it fits right on the waist.

I am ordering a new tail with the proceeds.
$700 OBO.

Melissa in the tail


This is a great tail for photo shoots. I can touch up the paint again. It's beautiful. However it is latex and eventually may not be repairable. It's still an amazing way to own a MVD w/o paying 4k!

[AniaR]

oh no you just got it :(

I know Thom Shouse knows how to patch this type of stuff for anyone who might need it!

[MermaidShannon]

It's a minor patch but I just want a new one. I keep buying everyone's old tails and they never fit the way I want. I retouched the paint and repaired most of the fluke to where the latex was acting up. I love this tail but he's gonna do me the same one in silicone.

[MermaidShannon]

FYI whoever get
This will likely
Have a tail twin I'm getting the new one identical.

[AniaR]

makes sense!

[MermaidShannon]

You guys I decided to keep this until I have the total amount to pay for the new tail. I was stressing and stressing and I'm really shocked that I can be this attached to something so material. Sorry. Will let you know when I'm ready.

[Mermaid Sirenia]

If only I was shorter! I'm 5'8 and the measurements were perfect other than height! Such a beautiful tail

I'll put "not available" in the threat title so people will their inquiries, PM me when you're ready to sell and I'll remove it for ya. :)

[Mermaid Sonyta]

The measurements are really close to mine, but I'm allergic to latex. :/ I wish I could buy it...I might actually be able to afford a $700 before I'm dead. ha ha. Good luck getting your new tail though!

[Rebekah.fish]

I'd love to know when you change your mind!!

[MermaidShannon]

This tail was badly damaged during last practice -- punched all the way through the fluke. I hate to declare this tail dead but RIP :( you'll see her ressurection in silicone in a few months I will be purchasing her reincarnated self from scratch from mike. Much love [emoji173]️[emoji173]️[emoji33]

[AniaR]

Awww so sorry

[MermaidShannon]

She went to someone that thinks he can do something with her and I am excited about the new one. Silver linings!

[Rebekah.fish]

Hope she resurrects! And I'm sure your new one will be great :)
