Hello!
« on: April 01, 2013, 09:27:50 AM »
Hello!

I finally found my way over here :)

I live in Finland. I know there are a lot of MLP collectors in my country but I don't know anyone personally. As a collector I'm a newbie but I had G1 ponies when I was a child. And I still have them! They were the best things I knew to play with when I was about ten-year-old girl.

Nowadays I'm hooked on G3 ponies. I don't know how it happened but it just did. My first G3 was Bowtie and I got it as a present from my husband. He just wanted to cheer me up on a cloudy day or something like that. After that I got a few more during the next years. I wanted to know what kind of ponies exist so I searched Internet for pictures on G3 ponies. I saw many beautiful figures but unfortunately they were all sold out. I thought that was the end of my G3 collecting and I would not be able to get Desert Rose, for example. That pony is one of my favourites.

Years after that I was googling Desert Rose again, just for fun. This time I realised a new possibility: Finnish auction site called Huuto.net. I had known about private auctions on Internet but I didn't know there are MLPs for sale! I started to bid on nice ponies and I won some. And then I wanted more and more and more... :blush:

Now I have bought approximately 150 ponies during the last few months. I buy from Ebay and Huuto.net and I began to sell on Huuto.net, as well. I'm not selling on Ebay, but I'm considering that option, too. And that is one of the reasons I came to this forum: I'm interested in buying and selling MLPs. I clean the ponies I get and make them look as good as possible without damaging the pony. Then I add it to my collection or try to sell it.

I don't feel like I should own all different MLPs and that's a good thing because then I'm able to sell! :lol: I usually try to get the shipping costs as low as possible for one pony and that's why I usually buy several items from the same seller. MLP lots are good for that same reason.

I'm focusing on G3 ponies but there are some G1 ponies I'd like to get someday. Maybe this forum helps with finding the ponies I'm looking for :)

Welcome to the Arena :wave:

I can totally relate to you winning ponies online and then needing more... and more... and more!  My favourite part is when they start arriving the mail.  It's totally addicting to have boxes of ponies coming to your door :frolic:

Enjoy the forums :D
