Hello everyone! I am selling my silicone tail by Merbella's. I'm asking $1800 plus shipping.

33845

I do not have measurements but due to it's stretchness it will fit various sizes ranging from small - medium, under 5,5 tall and size 8 or smaller feet. It was made for me as a size 3 but was a tiny bit big on me. It fits my size 5 and 8 mermaids too. I'd recommend this for someone in the size 5-8 range more than a smaller size as it will fit you better.

It has a few issues but is still a nice tail. Would be great for someone who wants it for fun and pictures. I tried to make sure I photographed all the issues.

There are some spots where the scales are pulling loose from the mesh liner. Most of these only show up when you stretch the tail like when putting it on. There are spots where new silicone was added to try and repair this but it didn't work well. A piece of the dorsal fin is missing near the bottom. One of the front fins is torn near the seam. There is a small tear in the fluke where the monofin meets the silicone but you can't see it unless you pull on the edge of the fluke. There are some spots on the fluke where the paint has rubbed off.

The tail has a competitor monofin but the heal straps were cut off so there is no heel straps. You can still swim in it without the heel straps, it just takes getting used to. The fluke is very stiff but does flow a little.

Let me know if you have any questions or are interested in purchasing.

Here are a few pics to show you what it looks like but more pics can be found here:

The photos next to the pool are ones I took today so you can see it exactly as it is right now.

Great deal! If I weren't already making a silicone tail I would be ready to snatch this up!

I've never seen this tail before! It's one with the mahina shaped monofin and those aren't too common.

Do you have any close up shots of the damage? I've gotten really good at repairs and we have an old merbella you owned so I think the measurements might work for my girls.

Never mind I saw the Dropbox link. I know how to fix all of that. I messaged mermaid mutiny to see if she might be interested :)

Sigh. I keep looking at this hopefully, but it doesn't get any longer, nor do I get shorter.

I know this would fit me cause I have your first mermaid creations tail, but with the husband sans job, I just can't afford it.
I truly hope someone snatches this up quick. It's beautiful!

I hate when that happens. Sorry :(

I'm sorry to hear that, I know that's rough. If anything changes, let me know.

Just thought I would mention I am open to someone making payment on this if they need to. I totally understand how hard it is to come up with a lump sum.

You'd have more luck if you posted the measurements so people will know with more certianty that it would fit if they bought it :) You don't have to have the original measurements used to make the tail, just measure with a tape measure across key points on one side and double it for horizontal measurements. Waist, hips, knees, ankles, lenth of waist to ankles are the most important ones. Measurements of calves and waist to hips would also be helpful. Good luck finding it a new home!

Thank you for the suggestion! I will do that. I personally feel those are not really super important, as I have so many people of various sizes that wear my tails. I wouldn't want someone to think that it won't fit them just because a measurement is not exactly the same as theirs. But what your saying makes sense, so thank you so much for the advice!

i would also say to try and put it up for bid on ebay too. Also what kind of offers would you be willing to take. I love the fluke and the scales but would want to repaint it and add different fins to it.

If this is still available in the new year (taking christmas pay into account) I just found out this would fit me, may need a belt as I'm 5ft6, but considering it. How is the drainage?

BlueMermaid

It appears to have no drainage. The fluke is a solid piece. If there is, I don't know where cause I never bothered to look real close.

You can see her swimming in it here and there certainly doesn't look like any ballooning

It's so gorgeous underwater! I'm surprised no one has snatched it up yet. It's a fantastic way to get a Merbellas/super quality tail at a lower price point.

The fluke is solid so no water goes in there. The foot area gets a very slight puff but as you can see from the video, it's not even noticeable.

Hi lovely. Is it still for sale? Going from your details, I'm guessing at 5"4' it would be fine? Cheers :)
