New Charlie Bears Category - Retired/Archived
Posted by Valerie on 6/7/2026 to

There is a new Charlie Bears category on the Bears Against MS store website. Aptly titled "Retired/Archived", it features Charlie Bears of which I no longer have stock available, and that are either retired (no longer produced) or at least not currently available for re-order. I have moved a paw-ful of listings already and as time permits, I will gradually be moving the rest of the listings for such bears from their regular Charlie Bears categories (e.g. "Plush") to this new category. So soon the only bears listed in the regular categories will be either available for adoption or available for pre-order and/or wish list. There will no longer be any "sold out" and "unavailable for re-order" bears listed in the regular listings. Hopefully this will eliminate people being disappointed when they think they have found a "most wanted" only to find out when they open the listing page that it's no longer available. However, by adding those "sold out" listings to the new category, rather than just removing them from the website altogether, people will still be able to gather information about the older, retired bears.
There is a link to the "Retired/Archived" category on the website's main Charlie Bears page but I've also provided a link below.

Absolutely wonderful news! I love finding information about the retired bears, and separating this on the site will be super helpful. Thank you!

This is a great idea Valerie. Your sites are so valuable to reference too which is important in collecting.
