Thanks everyone! I'm super happy with them. ^.^

Cherry Treats and Cotton Candy (both are upgrades) were a last minute catch, too! We were already on our way to the bus, when I spotted a lonely stand across the street, not even close to the market. I could just SMELL they had ponies, so I racewalked to said stand with a pokerface. XD I left two ponies behind though, because the lady asked €3 each. That's not so bad, but it's more than I'm willing to spend on a Sundance with lipstick and another Italian Peachy. :pout:

By the way, it's kind of annoying that people are starting to catch on. Earlier that day I paid €13,50 for five ponies, and €7,50 for two ponies and the parlour elsewehere. Because "these are the real ones!" Still below the market value of course, but those are not fleamarket prices, you know? It kind of takes the fun out of it.

I'm curious to see what other Dutch collectors have found yesterday! :D And Tiffoes, I think in the randstad it's just harder to find stuff these days, I noticed before that people over there have a harder time to find anything. :( I'm in the south, things just don't move that quickly here. XD
Wow, I paid less on the ponies. And the most expensive I saw was 7,50 on some G3 sets. I did see a lot of small children who asked mommy if she can have the my little pony. Reminds me of that topic in the corral. But luckily nothing rare so I was fine with it.

This day sounds like quite a treat! Congrats on your finds! :D

I'm traveling ot the Netherlands in the end of June. Do you have any suggestions of fun places to go for a pony collector? (Or just an overall nerd who loves pop culture and vintage toys?) :D

To be honest the big kingsday market is the only fleamarket I go to every year, so unfortunately I don't really know any good places. Though I did hear about the "IJ-Hallen" (http://ijhallen.nl/en/), I've never been there, but it may be worth it! Other than that, definitely check out Primark, especially in Amsterdam! They have loads of pony stuff at the moment, G4 as well as G1 (retro). ^.^
