Trader & Shipping Support / Returned package from Brazil
« on: March 28, 2024, 04:11:09 AM »
I want to know if more people have the same experience or maybe I missed something.

End of January I shipped a pony package with track & trace to Brazil. Buyer was fully aware that it could take some time to arrive. And also got the track & trace from me to follow the package. Post office also agreed I filled in address and customs form correctly. So the waiting game and follow the package could begin.
Beginning of February the t&t was "item is at customs" in Brazil. Ok, let them check whatever they want to check.
Yesterday I saw at the t&t site that package could not be delivered and is being returned to me. So now I have to wait until it comes back to me. And we really don't have a clue why. Buyer doesn't want the money back, even offered shipping again.Well let's then wait until the box arrives and then decide how to solve this.
Ponies,1 plush, squishy pops and loose blind bag ponies are all G4 with the only sort of special the Guardians of Harmony Spitfire & Soarin with that flying thing and Diamond Mint with liquid in it. Everything else just common, low value. Stickers and cards as extra's. Luckily I made pictures of the box and addres/custom label.

I also go for Euro packaging since we don't have Argos or Target :) But they were commonly available

Today I saw the Medley plush on the dutch Amazon in the Basic Fun shop. But no pre-order or indication when available.

I would defenitely ask more than 50 pounds for Copper Glow since she is complete. And she is still hard to find.
As for Petal Blossom, maybe 20 pounds. It's a common pony.

You are mentioning the past 3 years. Most of the world was closed due to the pandemic. And if you can't go out to the post office then you don't sell online.
Those who did sell were able to ask a lot more money for something that was way cheaper back then. Even I noticed even though I am not on your side of the pond.
But now that it's possible to thrift and go to conventions again there might be a chance you find something you are looking for so long. And when buying from pony people the price could be better too.

Pony Corral / Re: Koningdag: Where to head to for pony hunting?

Any area that is NOT in the city center will do :) As said above a lot of people are coming to party. There are really a lot of markets, people are allowed to sell in front of their houses. I did that last year after finished thrifting. Maybe by that time check out the local map for the activities because it will be listed.
I have to mention the weather :) If it rains, those markets also will be there.

I live in Amsterdam so that's my to go place at Kings Day :) But I can't cover all markets in the city, so I usually pick out the ones with the biggest chance to get ponies. Most of them are private sellers. Some areas in cities are for children only.

It depends a bit where you are in the UK to point out the thrift shops and car boot markets if its G3 you are after :)

Off Topic / Re: Looking for a certain collector… do you know her?

Do you have a location or a specific collectors item that person might be known for?
The details you are mentioning are very common for someone with a large collection.
