new member. Frantically scouring the earth for Alf bedsheets

Post by muffinsochoa »

So I will start off by introducing myself and why I am looking for Alf sheets like the Holy Grail.

My name is Maria and I live in Chicago.

Someone whom I love very much is extremely depressed and very bitter about life. I want to show him that there are so many good things in life to strive for and remind him of how happy he was as a kid. Since I know he absolutely loved Alf I am searching for alf bed sheets, pillows and other little things that can make him feel like his temporary dorm (he's away at school) is a warm place that will remind him of the fun good old days and just spark that joking and happy kid he always was. He is the kind of person that has lived to help people and make them happy whenever possible, truly an amazing individual. Just trying to spark a smile in his life which will mean the world to him. (it will be a surprise so I definitely hope so).

Thank you for anyone who took the time to read this and for anyone who has any idea where I can find those rare, vintage, unused bedsheets...

I am sorry to hear about him being depressed, but watch ebay for Alf stuff. You can find a lot of stuff right now on there that might do the trick.

Welcome! I appreciate and understand what you are trying to do for your friend, I have a question though: Why do they need to be unused? It will be extremely hard to find ones still sealed, but used ones in good condition is not that hard to find, and will be much cheaper.

muffinsochoa,

As previously mentioned, ongoing, diligent, and patient seach of ALF auction listings on eBay likey best chance you have of possibly finding good condition, used ALF sheets. Be advised. almost all ALF sheets you may happen to find wil be for twin size bed,

Maria, are you romantically involved with your depressed friend? If so, even from one of the biggest ALF fans ever, I suggest you in your birthday suit wrapped in any old sheet probably better cure for depression than even ALF sheets.

Welcome, and good luck with your search.

Mike

SO I think my first reply was saved as a draft and I don't know where it went. Well here goes again.

So the last response made me laugh a bit, thank you to everyone who has actually commented I didn't expect it.
Although I am romantically involved with this person we are in a long distance relationship, a country apart. He is living in a University dorm which affords him a twin bed which and so the alf sheets I thought would visually show him some kind of comfort from me. As far as nonverbal, nonphysical messages I thought maybe he'd smirk at the thought of being a grown man laying on his Alf sheets and think of me since I always want to be there for him in some way. Maybe I'm nuts, maybe I should look for an alternative....

Thanks again to everyone :)

-Maria

Maria they have a set of used Alf sheets on ebay right now. You might be able to get them cheaper than the new Alf sheets. Just wash them a couple times and they will be like new!!!

Really? Interesting. May I ask why he lived here those years ago, was he an exchange student?

He lived in Solna and played for a tabletennis team at a club called Sporvagen. He's played professionally since he was 11, he is amazing. He loved it there, he absolutely loves everything about Sweden.

Sorry to hear that Maria. Guess it is better you didn't spend all that money for something that you didn't want though.
