Quote from: xeevee on July 18, 2012, 06:25:15 PMShe's an EXCLUSIVE! What part of that are people not grasping. They make these ponies as a treat for special events. They won't be re-run, or they wouldn't be exclusive any more. There is a very slim chance she may show up on shelves in Singapore or somewhere like that, but that kind of thing is never intentional on Hasbro's behalf. The exclusives ALWAYS sell out. If you think that they will do it because she's more popular than previous years ponies, look at other lines of exclusives. GI Joe and Transformers are ALWAYS as popular as this pony is this year, they NEVER re-run them. I'm with you here, Eevee. Exclusive items are limited edition items. Exclusive items sell out. That is kind of the whole point. They are not designed to me made in mass numbers so everyone can get them. Sure it's always disappointing when people who really want one didn't get one, but that's just part of the game. We do what we can to get them ourselves and to help out our fellow collectors, but at the end of the day when it's gone it's gone. I think a lot of people just didn't expect it so fast with this years pony because the previous years haven't sold an insanely fast, but they still sell out eventually and they don't remake them.

Yeah, one of my sisters bought a BIN for $60 on Sunday, and I keep thinking about what a good deal that was... I thought it was too expensive at that time and I wanted her to wait until they went up on HTS... Good thing she bought it since I was not able to get her one because of the limit. And the prices on eBay have been through the roof lately.
I'm so mad at myself for not catching her on time...lol, I kept refreshing the site, but no, something else came up. I guess I may have to give into eBay, after a while to get it. As much as I hate to pay rediculous prices to scalpers who didn't give others a chance to get one. I wonder if the popularity will fade with the non collectors or people who just want the popular ponies and couldn't care less about the others out there, where will those "grey Pegasus ponies" go. I'm sure they'll move onto something else, and she'll end up in thrift shops or ruined...idk, just a thought.
I was totally stuck in class when she hit HTS so I'm kinda disappointed. I'm hoping she comes back into stock today as I'll be on a computer most of the day... Crossing my fingers. If not, I'll just wait for those ridculous eBay prices to even out. Btw, congrats to all who managed to snag her!
