Unfortunately, it is time for me to let go of most of my collection. I've been in the community for a long time but due to life changes and limited space, I need to sell off nearly everything. The vast majority of what I have are G1s and G1 merch but I do have a little of every generation as well as other 80's toys and books (Care Bears, Strawberry Shortcake, Fairytail Birds, etc). Please don't hesitate to PM if you're looking for something specific. I'd like as many of these girls to go to loving homes as soon as possible. TONS of baits available and will sell in bulk. If you live near central California, I have playsets available with accessories. OFFERS WELCOME*All items come from a smoke free home. I do have dogs and cats but they don't have access to my collection.*  Condition/Pictures: I will provide descriptions and photos of ponies/items and show them to the best of my ability. All items have been acquired secondhand unless otherwise noted. If there are any questions, feel free to PM me. All ponies will be wiped down well before being packaged up for shipping. Minimum sale of $20 please. Shipping: Cost of shipping will be exact. All packages will be sent with tracking for everyone's piece of mind. Payment: No holds, sorry.

I hope this is okay to post here. I need some airbrushing work done for some very special customs. I'm going to see Good Charlotte for my birthday in November and want to make a custom to have signed and one to give to them. I have the baits. One is a regular G3 and the other is a Styling size G3. I'll pay postage both ways and the commission cost to airbrushing. Thank you so much!

This list is for my swap partner for the 2017 Holiday Swap.
I am pretty chill on most minor flaws. I am looking for a lot of upgrades to ponies I currently have. I'm okay with minor marks such as pen, marker and obscure ink stains as long as they are small and don't detract from displaying. I'm also okay with writing under the feet, as long as the ink hasn't bled into the plastic and discolored the feet. Small rubs to symbols and eyes are also okay, along with minor cuts to hair.
Flaws that are not okay: Large ink stains, mismatched head/body, major hair cuts, chew marks/holes/abrasions to plastic, major symbol/eye rubs, discoloration or fading.

It's that time of the year again, folks! Time to vote on the date for the 2015 Central California Pony Meet. We only have two options for dates this year, sorry. There's a good reason though! We will be renting a venue this year to make sure we have enough room for all the attending members, so I need a small window to tell potential venue owners. Yaay! Please feel free to share and point our fellow Cali members, who might want to attend, to this poll. I will be announcing the date and making the official post by the end of the month.

Hi everyone! I need help tracking down a non pony item from Walmart. (Admins, I apologize if this isn't allowed. I am desperate.) I'm looking for a women's minky fleece robe dark pink with light pink hearts. I need it in a 2x or 3x. If your Walmart has it, I am willing to pay for it plus shipping and fees. My boyfriend accidentally bought me a XL and now we can't find any of the bigger sizes. Please help or I will have to make it through the winter without a warm robe to lounge in.  Thank you!

I'm currently working on a custom set of Jack Skellington and Sally for a friend. I used Sculpty clay for all the clothes and even to cover up the holes on Jack's head where the hair used to be. Could anyone make recommendations on how to smooth out the clay on his head so that it doesn't have a seam? I have to paint it and don't want a lip where the clay meets the head. Any good sanding techniques or other tricks? Thanks in advance!

This gorgeous girl will be the door prize at my upcoming annual pony meet on May 3rd. Her name is Cali Sunset. She started out as a baity Lavender Cloud, was thoroughly cleaned and stripped of the remaining paint. Her eyes and cutie mark were painted with acrylics and sealed with Mod Podge and Triple Thick Diamond Clear Coat.

All of my white baits have come down with a case of the "pink measles". I desperately need 3 white baits for commissions in the following poses: 1 white Kimono-pose 1 white Lullabelle/Blossomforth II (Head must be completely free of stains or non-removable marks. Body staining okay.) 1 white Donkey pose (removable marks okay but needs to be completely clear of stains) If anyone has these for sale, please let me know ASAP. Thanks!

I've had some wonderful luck at my local flea markets over the last several months. Unfortunately, it's waaay too much to try to pull out and take pictures of. Here are my most recent finds, though. visitors can't see pics , please register or loginAll ranged from .50 to $1 and came from a few regular vendors who know me as "that pony girl". lol I'm always so happy when I get to bring ponies home. Now, onto my non-pony brag. I'll cut right to the chase.................. I GOT A PROMOTION AT WORK!!! I'm so HAPPY! I've worked at Lowes for six years and I've had the same part time cashier job since I started. I've interviewed on 14 different occasions for positions I qualified for, but I was out scored by other applicants each time. I was starting to think I was going to need to look elsewhere for a better job. That's when my store manager let me know there was a full time position opening up in our garden center. Not many people know, but I'm an avid gardener and know quite a bit about plants. I applied and interviewed and didn't hear anything else about it until this past week. They called and offered me the job!! I was so happy, I cried. This is my first full time job EVER and, on top of the increased hours, I'm also getting a $3 raise. I am beyond thrilled with it. And I might have celebrated by buying myself something pony related.... but that's for another brag.... lol

2/23/14- I have been issued a full refund by the seller. I buy quite frequently on eBay. Mostly things that I feel are a good deal. Most times, I have a pleasant experience and the items are as described or look great. This time, I've had it!  A few days ago, I saw an auction for a G1 Princess pony table cloth and it was at $3.99 with no bids and about to end. So I bid and won. Paid right away and the item came in the mail today. I was so excited because the pictures shown were in great shape! The clear plastic cover was in tact and it was clean and not faded. Upon opening my package, it was clear that the item I received was not the one pictured. There are rips and tears in the clear plastic and it looks like someone cut out price tags off the front. It also has some sort of dried food stuck to it. The table cloth itself, luckily, appears to still be in new condition. I went back to the auction and checked the description. Nowhere does it say anything about condition but gives you the measurments and says what it is. This seller seems to sell a lot of kids items and copy/pastes a generic template in the description. Needless to say, I sent her a polite, but firm, message stating what I bought, that I was not happy about the item not being as described and to please write a detailed description about future items to avoid making people upset. I also mentioned I didn't want to return the item, as it would cost me more money to send it back. I really hope I did the right thing.  The seller's name is: alisas951 Not a pony seller but she does sell lots of kids toys and items.

If you are 21 and over, we will have wine or spirits available. Please have a driver or limit yourself if you intend to drink. 5) Please feel free to bring any ponies/merch/other toys you wish to sell. It's always fun to find a new addition for your collection. 6) Remember to follow the golden rule! This is a meet for all pony collectors, regardless of what generation you love. I ask that everyone be respectful of others and their interests. No badmouthing or fighting. You will be asked to leave if the rules are broken. Now, on to registering! If you are planning to attend, you MUST fill out the form below and PM it to me. It will provide me with the vital information I will need to make sure this meet is enjoyable for everyone. Name or Username: Are you over 18? Number of people you're bringing (including yourself): Any children in your party? If yes, genders and ages (for goodie bags): Any food allergies/dislikes? Favorite generation (for prizes)? Any idea for non-pony gifts? Will you be selling? Will you/your kid(s)/your SO be participating in the custom contest? If you have any questions or concerns, PLEASE don't hesitate to PM me. That is all for now. I will be posting updates as they come. Thanks again, everyone!
