Is this g1 lot worth the price?
emily_katie:
Hello there ^.^
I have a dilemma friends, there is a lot I have had my eye on for a while on an app and im really struggling as to if its worth the money at all...
background:
The lot was listed originally for £120, after a month of presumably no interest it was re listed for again £120 (about $160 for friends overseas). It has been relisted once again for £90... I just need to know if its worth it >_<
Whats in the lot?:
visitors can't see pics , please register or login
Here are the ponies, its hard to identify a few of them because they are face on, there are close ups of the ponies but also face on :shocked: but here is who I have identified until now
Daddy apple delight, Kisscurl, Daddy bright bouquet, Baby north star, baby bowtie, Mummy apple delight, TAF fifi??, NSS wind whistler, female baby apple delight, sunlight???, Cloud dreamer (poor condition symbol), baby fifi, baby half note?? and a seapony
I cant identify the pony on the end left and a lot of the babies are unknown for me...
19 ponies all together... But wait there's more! There's a pony carrier, a cot, baby bonnet school of dance, Lullabye nursery, scrub a dub tub and a purple grooming parlour
£90 is a lot of money for me as I am a student so your opinions on the lots worth are appreciated :good: I can send more photos if you all want too!

Well, you have 19 ponies there - and supposing they're all in good condition and worth about $8 on average, the combined value of the ponies alone is about $152 USD, or maybe around £113. Some of them are obviously worth a bit more than $8/pony but (and someone correct me if I'm wrong) none of them are SUPER rare. Then you have the playsets, which probably bumps you up another £75-£100 depending on their condition, maybe more, maybe less.
So to me it depends: do you want the majority of these ponies? Would you sell those that you didn't? It's not a small sum of money, you're right, but in terms of value for money it's a good deal. Really up to you.
Also - pony on top left end looks like Banana Surprise to me.
Mermaid:
I think it’s a good deal!
Snapdragon:
I can identify all of these ponies, I think! I wonder if 'Kisscurl' might equally be Posey, since they're in the same pose? But, now that I zoom in, she has lilac eyes - Posey has green! Good catch! ;)
Going right to left, here's who I see:
Daddy Apple Delight
Kisscurl
NC/No Country Daddy Bright Bouquet
Mommy Apple Delight
TAF Fifi
NSS/Movie Star Wind Whistler
Sunlight
Magic Message Cloud Dreamer
Banana Surprise
Babies:
Baby Cuddles
Baby North Star
Baby Bowtie, UK/euro exclusive
Newborn twins Sticky and Sniffles
Baby Apple Delight
BBE Baby Half Note
Newborn Twin Sniffles
Baby Fifi
Seapony - UK/Euro Pearly Baby Waterlily
This last one was actually REALLY TOUGH for me to ID, because I know so little about baby seaponies, I didn't even realize there might be variants from the UK/Europe! She's so cool! http://www.ponylandpress.com/europe/uk/babysea.shtml
So if you take those names, and plug them into Bluerose's eBay price generator, you'll get the average eBay price for them - in America. It's not a ton of help to you in Britain, especially since the UK exclusives go for more money here, but less there I'd imagine. http://www.angelfire.com/oh5/bluerose9978/PRICE/
Ultimately, it comes down to whether you, personally, think it's a good deal. I mean, 90 pounds is a lot of money for toys, especially for a student! Me, personally, I'd rather wait around for a better deal, but I also have almost all of those ponies. Even when I needed them all, though, I might wait, because with only a couple 'uncommon/rare' ponies in there, I think you could do better cruising on eBay/watching for other lots, or wait for the price to drop on this one. But, there's also a few buildings in there! ... IF you have the room for them, LOL! It's a lot of very personal variables, so I'm not comfortable saying "definitely yes" or "definitely no" on this one. Best of luck with your decision! :cheer:

Your comment has been really eye opening for me, None of these ponies are a grail item to me, and although it would be a good way of bulking up my collection at the current moment I cant really a justify dropping a lot of money on things I don't *really* want :blush: even if its good value for money >_<

You sure know your stuff! Thank you for the help :lovey: I agree perhaps its not the right time to pounce on this lot, the seller is obviously keen on having them gone so she might drop the price again, £50 or under is when I will jump in I think.
Honestly I don't care for the playsets :blush: I love playsets don't get me wrong but I don't drive, therefore I would have to carry everything in my hands or bags on the bus back home. its not practical! In an ideal world she would let me take the ponies and not the playsets, but I doubt that will happen :huh:
