I may have missed it, and sorry if I did, but can you post their ebay name? This is someone I want to avoid.


Yes please share the ID so we all can avoid them.

I feel so bad that a purchase you were super excited about went so horribly wrong!! I've been reading along on this post as the arena weighed in to help you, and I'm so glad that you're at least done with the mess!

I debated on whether or not to say anything...
But I knew exactly which listing you were talking about because I thought really hard about bidding on it myself, but I didn't. I was already committed to purchasing other ponies so I passed. I feel like it just proves that an experience like this can sometimes just be bad luck and randomly happen to anyone. Again, I feel for you and commend you for enlisting the help of the awesome people here on the arena. As a newbie collector it could easily have been me, and I'm not sure I would have dealt with it as well as you  :hug:

Lol, thanks SundanceSadie  ;) 

Yeah - all going well it would have been a great score, eh? Sadly many of those very good ponies are in deceptively poor condition - almost all the wingers have had their hair chopped and the non-visible wings are all chewed :(  Lucky Leaf was the one I was most incredibly disappointed by - her horn is completely missing and her face split right through by a chew :(

Oh my goodness...I could tell by the "pictures" that SOME were a little rough, but I never ever thought they were as bad as what you got! That's so crazy and sad!   :yikes:

I have a soft spot for wingers, they were my focus when I was checking it out. I even went back at the end of the auction to see what they sold for (I'm trying to learn the going rates of different ponies) and I thought WOW...they got a steal! I would've been heartbroken too if they'd arrived in such awful condition.
I'm wishing you much better luck on your future pony finds, I think you've earned it at this point.  :lovey:

Thanks again :) :)  Yeah - it was obvious that some ponies in the lot were a little worse off than others, but the hair cuts were definitely a surprise (and obviously, all the other nasty flaws that came to light when the parcel arrived!). Oddly, it's just the wingers with the cuts - Cool Breeze escaped thankfully, but her hair is very coarse, and Whirly's hair too is (coarsely) intact but she doesn't have her wings (which at least could be seen in the pics!) Such a shame.

At the end of the day, I did still get a good buy overall as there are other ponies that do make up for it in the lot (and another reason I didn't quibble too much about only getting $5 back), but what I paid is besides the point in the end. There was absolutely no excuse for the conduct of the seller throughout and their inadequacy in their description, and I think anyone who ended up with that lot, bargain or not, would have been as appalled as I was over the situation in its entirety.

I'm wishing you much better luck on your future pony finds, I think you've earned it at this point.  :lovey:

 :hug:  Thank you so much :)  I have had some wonderful buys recently, so can't complain too much at what the pony gods have sent me. Every now and then you get a dud (not usually with such an *expletive* seller though!) but the goodies do often make up for the baddies  ;)  Wishing you pony luck, also, SundanceSadie!

you've been easier on them than I would have been but if you're happy with the outcome then that's what matters  :hug:  . I'm still annoyed for you about the condition of those ponies and the things the seller said though. I would definitely not deal with this person. ever.
still at least you don't have to  communicate with them anymore.

Definitely don't blame yourself about this or feel bad about opening a case. This is what eBay buyer protection is for and it sounds like the seller messed up big time on multiple fronts.
