Stickers Question
« on: July 25, 2016, 12:49:42 PM »
So I recently bought a large lot of G1 ponies that included multiple carrying cases. In 2 of the cases, there are stickers in every slot. Should I try to remove them and sell them individually, or would it be better to leave them on and just sell the case? I'm not sure which is the majority of collectors' preference.

Thanks for any help with this! :)

I have no idea what the "right" thing to do is. I personally would probably remove them if you can do so without damaging them. If you weren't super attached to the cases or if the cases are in really ratty shape I might even consider cutting them out of the case so as not to damage the stickers. If the cases are in really good condition then I wouldn't dream of that though  :P  I think I would prefer to buy them separately.

I hear lighter fluid removes stickers without damaging them or case...

I think it depends what the stickers are. Would they be puffy of flat character stickers or the little name ones that came with some carry cases? Puffy and flat ones are probably worth removing, if possible, but the name ones I would leave on.

Oh yes. What Chrissytree said. I was just assuming they were puffy stickers.

Thanks everyone! They are the puffy/character stickers. The carrycases are in excellent condition (better then my personal one I had growing up!) so I'll try and leave them intact.
Ponyqueen, thanks for the advice - I'll give it a shot :)

I have removed some from a carrier case too. No problem at all when you use a hairdryer. Jus not too long and not too hot. They came off very easy and without damaging the carrier or the sticker.

It would also be an idea to check up on which characters it is as well - some of the puffy stickers are quite expensive and hard-to-find while others are easier and pop-up all the time ;)
