(Sold!) Tails for Sale! One silicone, one latex. Other mermaid items for sale too

[BlueMermaid]

Unfortunately my dear friend Stella is dealing with some personal problems and decided that she can no longer be a mermaid. :( So, her tail is now for sale. I also have one of his older style "latex" tails for sale, as well as some other misc. mermaid items.

Pictures can be seen here: https://www.dropbox.com/sh/4isouva2ggm0oq5/78MBkIeugm

1. Mertailor "latex" tail. Asking $325 + shipping. I do not know what this is really made of. It has a neoprene or neoprin liner, I don't know which. It has a layer of what he calls latex on top. This tail was originally green with a scalloped shaped fluke. I repainted it with spray paint. I don't know how the spray paint will do in the water but last time I spray painted a tail it stayed on alright. I also cut the fluke, so the edge where I cut it is not covered with latex. Look at the pics to see what it looks like. I do not know what kind of monofin is inside but it feels like a finis.This tail is best for someone with size 8 or smaller feet, and under 5,5. It will stretch a little and will fit someone slightly larger than the measurements. Measuring straight across while lying flat on the floor, it measures 14" at the waist, 16" hips, 9" knees, 7" ankles.

2. Mertailor silicone tail. Asking $1200 + shipping. This tail is best for someone with size 8 or larger feet, and under 5,5. I do not know what kind of monofin is inside but it feels like a finis, and I know it is the larger foot pocket for bigger feet. It will stretch a little and will fit someone slightly larger than the measurements. Measuring straight across while lying flat on the floor, it measures 14" at the waist, 14" hips, 10" knees, 8" ankles. This tail was originally made for a very thin man and worn for one photo shoot before I bought it. It was recently repainted. It is blue with navy edges and gold on the fluke. It has what we call "tentacles" on the fluke.

The silicone shells are pending but if the sale doesn't go thru I will let you know.

16637

[Mer_Adella]

Please do let me know about the shells :) and although the beaded scale top is gorgeous, I (for some unknown reason) thought that it was a beaded scale top as in for a mermaid to wear. It's beautiful but just not what I am looking for. I appriciate the effort in posting those pictures however, BlueMermaid

[BlueMermaid]

oh no problem! I probably should of mentioned it's a human top. haha I'll let you know what happens with the shells.

Here are some pictures of the silicone tail being used before it was repainted. It fits various sizes due to the stretchy nature of the silicone. Stella has small feet but she wore thick socks to help fill in the foot pocket. She loved this tail!

16638

This is the tail being worn by someone slightly larger than stella.
16639

It looks even better now that it's been repainted!
16640

Looks good in the water and swims well.
16641

I just don't have any use for it any longer.

[MerAnthony]

Attachments are not working for some reason.

[BlueMermaid]

hmmm ok let me try that again....

[BlueMermaid]

This is my son taking it for a test swim the other day. He is disabled tho and it was too heavy for him.

Here it is on 2 different sized mermaids.

This tail has been very loved and used in many events, but it is well cared for and freshly painted by the mertailor for you! Here is a picture that Mertailor posted after he painted it that shows the colors: https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=739414656076119&set=pb.130816216935969.-2207520000.1388259131.&type=3&src=https%3A%2F%2Fscontent-b-mia.xx.fbcdn.net%2Fhphotos-ash3%2F1380540_739414656076119_930969207_n.jpg&size=640%2C640

Since there seems to be some trouble with my drop box, here is all the photos of the things that are still available and not already sold.

Mertailor silicone tail. Asking $1200 OBO + shipping. This tail is best for someone with size 8 or larger feet, and under 5,5. It will work with smaller foot sizes as Stella, who wore this tail, is only a 7. I do not know what kind of monofin is inside but it feels like a finis, and I know it is the larger foot pocket for bigger feet. It will stretch a little and will fit someone slightly larger than the measurements. Measuring straight across while lying flat on the floor, it measures 14" at the waist, 14" hips, 10" knees, 8" ankles. This tail was originally made for a very thin man and worn for one photo shoot before I bought it. It was recently repainted. It is blue with navy edges and gold on the fluke. It has what we call "tentacles" on the fluke. You can see everwhere this tail has been on my facebook page Blue Mermaid Designs, it's been on the news and in a commercial, it's been to some great events.

Emily Strange mermaid top, asking $5 + shipping. It says size small, but it's too small for me, so you would need to be tiny or a child to wear this. I never wore it. I added the pearl to the top of her wand.

I would like the Emily Strange top please :)

[Mermaid Esther]

Would 950 work? And would 300 work?

[Blondie]

The Mertailor tail is pretty! Not my size but it looks like it's in good shape!

[Merman Arion]

The Mertailor tail is pretty! Not my size but it looks like it's in good shape!

The look is nice indeed.
But honestly, when i see the difference of the seams between Raven from Merbella Studios, the Roberts twins from Finfolk Productions and those from Eric in his Mertailor business, i feel like Eric is actually not that great of a tailmaker considering the fact that his seams are clearly visible at sight. Because of that, his tails should be worth much less that the price he is offering. I wouldn't pay 2k or 3k for this tail. The fluke shape and the paint job are good but it's not a smooth work. There are clearly imperfections.

[BlueMermaid]

The silicone tail is pending a sale, just waiting on payment. I will take $300 for the latex tail tho. If you want it, send me a private message with your address so I can figure out shipping costs. :)

[BlueMermaid]

It is! It's held up really well and was just refurbished and looking like new.

[BlueMermaid]

I have or have had tails from FlipTails, Merbellas, Mermaid Creations and Mertailor. Mertailor seams are the most visible, as you can see in the photos.... They all have imperfections. When it comes to seams, FlipTails & Merbellas performance tails are nearly invisible.

Hello Blue! I have a question about the Mertailor Silicone tail. What was it repainted with? And what kind of installment plans would you be willing to take? If you would prefer to PM me that's fine. Thanks so much!

[Kumori Kitsune]

I love both the tails

[MermaidMyrthe]

Its a pity i can only pay €100... Thats around $135... But i would love the mertailor silicone tail, dont think 135 bucks is enough, but it is worth a try ;) Would it fit an 12 year old teenager? I am 1,67 metres tall (Or short (: )
My measurements:
Around waist: 28 inch
Around hips: 31.1 inch
Around knees: 21 inch
Around calves: 20.1 inch
Around ankles:14 inch
Waist to hips: 5.1 inch
Hips to knees: 16 inch
Knees to calves: 7.1 inch
Calves to ankles: 8.3 inch.

Just find out the price then convert it. I know its about 250-500 dollars for international shipping. Or at least that's what he said.

[MermaidMyrthe]

O geebz that is a lot of money for shipping... And yeah $135 is wayyyyy to less for a silicone tail ;)

[selkie13]

I know right! Some of the other sites where like 52 dollars, but those sites have a record of international packages going missing.
I personally making my first tail(fabric), then hopefully save up to afford one of merbella's

[MermaidMyrthe]

Oh good luck selkie! But my prob is that my mom thinks people will laugh at me when i wear my tail in community... Has this ever happened to somebody here?

[selkie13]

Thanks! I've asked all my localish pools and none of them will let me in unless no one else is in the pool! I'll just have to hire a pool for a day and have a party :P

[Patches]

I am super interested in the MVD top!!

[Gem Stone]

I've had people laugh at the idea, but once I got my tail and started swimming, everyone thought it was cool

[MermaidMyrthe]

Thanks for your reaction ;) I was like "Well everybody will laugh at me for pretending to be a fish..." :D

[thevirginiamermaid]

I am very interested in the mertailor silicone tail!!

[EdenSirene]

Let The Balsam Mermaid have it :) I saw her at Merfest and she would be gorgeous in that tail!! I hope you get it girl!!

[Mermaid Esther]

even though I wanted it, I think it would be perfect for her!

[thevirginiamermaid]

Thanks everyone! I am SERIOUSLY considering buying this tail. Just have to get all my finances in order :)

[Mermaid Esther]

yeah you can do it! you can get it

[MerAnthony]

I was wondering what type of monofin are in the tails an what size are they?

[MerAnthony]

I was wondering what type of monofin are in the tails an what size are they? An also are they still for sale if so what are the sizes for for both tails?

[Casi Mundy]

Can you send me pictures of the tails. For some reason they aren't showing up in the thread for me. casi.mundy@gmail.com. I have funds available. Thanks

[BlueMermaid]

The green tail is not currently for sale.

The blue silicone one would best fit a thin person under 5,5. I don't know what kind of monofin it has, but it is for larger feet. I am women's size 7 and I have to bulk my feet with socks to wear it.

Here are a few pics of it on different people, just go to these links if you don't see the pics. This was before it was painted. The waist was also cut down after we got it, so it will only fit shorter people under 5,5.

I have a 32 inch waist an from my waist down to the floor is 3 foot. My foot size is 10 1/2. Do you think it might fit?

[BlueMermaid]

I think it would! Just to make sure, what is the measurement around your calves?
I have a 32 inch waist an from my waist down to the floor is 3 foot. My foot size is 10 1/2. Do you think it might fit?

[MerAnthony]

Around my calves is about 24 inches

[BlueMermaid]

It might be too tight. My husband has 24" calves so he said he will try it out when he gets home later to see if he can get it on. If he can, then we will know if you can.


Around my calves is about 24 inches

[MerAnthony]

Ok if he can what would you be asking for the tail?

[Pascal21M]

How much is the latex tail??

[MerAnthony]

I believe the latex has been or not going to be sold.

[thevirginiamermaid]

The only snug place would be around my booty but everything else matches the measurements you sent me :) Going to have to wear neoprene booties and socks to pad the monofin but meh its worth it! I'm 5.3 and my waist to floor is 36 inches

[BlueMermaid]

Sorry MerAnthony but the tail is sold, pending payment. If it doesn't work out for some reason, I will have my hubby check it for the calf measurement and let you know.

I decided not to sell the latex tail just yet, but it will be back for sale again in a few months.

[cassiasparkle]

Is this still for sale? I want it!!!

[megslifeofmusic]

I have an Oleg Cassini wedding dress and if you would like, I would love to trade it for your green tail (if it is still available). These dresses new cost around $1000. The zipper pull is broken but other then that it is in great condition. I just read that you are not selling the tail right now, but if you choose to later just send me a message. (If you are not interested in all please let me know).
