Title: PC - Australian Release G4s - Diamond Rose and Pinkie Pie
Post by: Lhianneth on May 18, 2017, 11:27:50 PM

Hi all!

I bought these two in 2012 for my niece, but she lost her love of ponies just as quickly as she developed it, so I never ended up giving them to her. They've been in my sewing room ever since and I found them while cleaning the other day. I was thinking of selling them, since they're still in package and I never developed any real affinity for them. That said, the prices I'm seeing fluctuate pretty wildly (and I've not seen Australians selling either; only US or US release), so I'm not sure how to price them fairly, or where to even post them.

Both have slight signs of shelf wear. Pinkie Pie's backing card is banged up on one corner, and Diamond Rose's backing tape is a bit gummy looking round the edges. Otherwise, both are intact and have never been opened.

If I do decide to sell them, should I offer them as a pair? Or sell them separately? Is it better to sell through the Arena or go to ebay?

Sorry, bit new to trading in the Pony market.

Thanks in advance.

I know that the aussie versions are obviously preferable for MIB collectors, because of the DVDs in the US packaging, however Pinkie has so many releases she may be difficult to find a home for, even MIB. Diamond Rose, and most other non-mane six are sitting at about $30 MIB on aussie ebay from the few I've seen lately, I've been keeping an eye out because I want to move my own MIB g4s along when I find some cheap boxes that won't eat all my profit! I'd probably sell them together, unless someone is after Pinkie.

I would price Diamond Rose at about $70, myself.  I sold one with the DVD for about $60, so I imagine the lack of the DVD increases the value. As for the Pinkie, I'm not sure.

I will say, however, that it would definitely be best to sell them separately :)

Thank you both for the help! That definitely gives me a better idea of what to expect. I knew the $100+ listings were wishful thinking, but not being able to find any Aus sellers for comparison had me a bit concernt.
