Price Check for a deflocked pony
« on: June 29, 2018, 10:43:18 AM »
As the title says, I'm hoping to find the price of a deflocked Bouncy. I more-so deflocked her as an experiment, but I personally think her vinyl color is so much lovelier. She looks great deflocked, and every part of her is good condition except for three plugs at the front of her head that were cut. Having checked ebay, she goes flocked for 10-15 dollars in good condition, so what might I be able to expect for deflocked?

Thank you for your help and advice!

Hmm...I'm not sure if de-flocked ponies should be priced higher than flocked ponies since that is technically ruining the gimmick of the pony, so I can't help you there. However, the cut plugs will probably lower her value down a bit too.
I personally really like de-flocked ponies better than flocked ones, so I hope everything goes okay with your sales  :happy:

Thank you for your help! I definitely don't want to rip anyone off, so I'll just stick to the so-soft price and keep her mistakes in mind. :) Thanks again, friend!

I thinks a deflocked pony worth a bit more than the regular because you basically pay someone for the time, effort and material, he/she puts on it.
Then, the price would depend on the pony condition and final looks. And of course, currency.

In my experience, I've seen deflocked ponies go for more than their flocked versions. Mainly for the reasons Cold Ruru mentioned.

This is my experience too. Deflocks tend to go for more because of the effort it took to make the pony presentable again.

I would say about $20 for a deflocked bouncy, but it could be a little higher. Like Coldruru said, the price will increase due to the time and effort put in and also the improved finish of the pony.
