Hey everyone,
I have a G1 Tornado for sale. He's currently on ebay along with his comb but they're up for best offer as I didn't know what to ask for them.
I lost my dog today after he collapsed, he had a tumor on his spleen that we had no idea about. His vets bills and cremation come to over £800 and I have no idea where I'm going to get the money so I'm desperate to sell some ponies asap. All offers considered.
I'm also selling his comb seperately. It actually belongs to my own Tornado but I decided to sell it as my pets need the money more than I need the comb.
I will ship worldwide but please note he will have to be sent insured. I am happy to sell him together with the comb or sell either seperately.

Condition (copied from my ebay listing):
Body:
Overall good condition but he has some faded brown specks over various parts of his body, mostly his head and neck. These are actually not too noticeable in person but have picked up quite visible in the pictures. There is some slight yellowing to the tips of his ears and edges of his hooves. He has a few scratch-like glue marks on his back from the factory.
Hair:
Overall beautiful condition! His forelock has been cut and he is missing one plug at the base of his neck (not noticeable). His hair is silky, soft and shiny with only the most minor touch of dryness. Though the pictures don't show it his hair still has pink to it.
Eyes:
A minor rub to one eye and some factory faults but otherwise his eyes are good
Freckles:
Beautiful with only one very minor rub to one dot as far as I can see
Symbols:
Very slightly rubbed/scratched - please see pictures

Comb:

Condition: Overall good condition. One tooth on the comb is broken but still attached by a thread. This could be glued back into position. there are some minor bite(?) marks at the ends of the comb's teeth (please see pictures)

I'd prefer to sell them on here due to ebay's high fees but I will post the ebay links as there are more pictures on there:

I am so sorry about your dog.  What a horrible thing to have to go through.  My heart goes out to you.  I hope you are able to raise the funds that you need to alleviate the additional stress that has already been placed upon you ((hugs))
ISO Greek babies  ^.^

Thank you both, I really appreciate it. It's still a shock. He bounced out the door yesterday morning, he was gone only hours later. We had no idea. He never had any signs. It was a huge tumor, he'd never have survived surgery even if we'd had the money. His insurance started today, one day too late. But he was already too far gone. It's such a shock. He was such a beautiful dog and a very close member of the family.
We've drained every penny from every account and there are bills coming out in the next few days so we're all going to be overdrawn. I have no idea what we're going to do.
I'm going to get a lot of ponies sorted including some of my own collection so there will be more for sale in the next week. Tornado is the only mountain boy right now but I do have a Thundercloud who needs rehairing who will be for sale once I've rehaired him if anyone's interested. Also may have a greek Starshine, though she's not in the best of condition

Edit:
Here's my beautiful boy :( This was the day after be brought him home. We had him for nearly 5yrs. I never even imagined we'd lose him so early.

Bump - I'm willing to consider all offers, please don't be put off by the price I've got him and the comb for on ebay, they're just up at that as I wasn't sure what to ask for them - plus ebay take 10%so I'd rather sell them on here anyway.
I have to raise £350 by Monday to pay the last of the vet bill and the cost of Max's cremation so I'm desperate to sell Tornado or any other pony. Please feel free to send me an offer by PM on here for any pony I have on ebay on a buy it now. I can't pull auctions as it's not fair on bidders but I will pull any pony on BIN.

I'm so sorry to hear about your dog. :huh: :hug:

Do you know what shipping would be to the US for just the comb? I might be able to make an offer, but shipping will determine how much I could afford over all. Thank you. :)

Sorry for the late reply. I've been trying to find anything I can to sell whilst also having to clear the house as we're facing possible eviction due to my parents divorce  :huh: Judge has ordered our stuff be put into storage and the house cleaned and we've only got until this tuesday to finish it all. Talk about everything happening at once  :huh:

Kitkat, if selling on ebay I'd have had to send it recorded which puts the price up to £8-something (can't remember exactly) but I'm willing to risk sending by normal post for an arena member. It should be £3.15 but if it ends up being less I'll refund the extra postage. There is a chance it would be considered a normal letter in which case it's £2.15. As I say, I'll refund any extra postage.
The comb itself is in good condition but it's worth noting that one tooth is broken. It's still attached by a thread. It could be glued back in place but I've left it as it is. There are also some minor bite(?) marks just at the bottom. They should be visible in the pictures but if you'd like me to take more I'd be more than happy to
