Trader & Shipping Support / Slight delay on shipping items this week...« on: November 17, 2013, 10:55:31 PM »
If you are waiting on an item to be shipped from me, there may be a delay. Half of our town is without power, including my house. (I am accessing the Arena from my phone). I might be able to get quotes if the USPS site works on my phone, but can't print labels. I will update when power is restored but the power company says it may be a few days.
Pics of new sale items will go up after power is restored as well. 33
Pony Corral / Re: Feeling like I need to downsize, don't know where to start...« on: November 17, 2013, 01:42:03 AM »
I originally wanted to do that, but even that is an overwhelming task with how many ponies I have. The open display space will show quite a few ponies, but I also have the better part of two closets plus a long, under-the-bed container filled with ponies waiting their turn. I'd conservatively guess that I have between 700-800 ponies at this point. My Paradise Estate is dismantled and stored in the closet, and ponies fill each room about 3 layers deep! My rares are on permanent display in a small glass-doored cabinet.
One thing I've struggled with is parting with variations of ponies. I don't collect variations of the same character, but sometimes I'll end up with, say, a mint regular Lickety-Split and a mint So Soft Lickety-Split and debate over who stays and who goes (I picked the regular one...then ended up with another SS Lickety-Split!). Right now I have regular Sundance, SS Sundance, and TAF Sundance and feel like I really should choose... 34

Now, don't get me wrong...I still LOVE ponies, and I have ponies still on my want list that I'd really like to have!
However, my collection has gotten *massive*. The G2s and G4s don't take up too much space, but the G3s still take up quite a bit of real estate even after multiple purges, and the G1s take up most of a room! I'm feeling overwhelmed by how many ponies I have and sad that there is no possible way I can display them all. At the same time, though, I'm having a hard time figuring out who I can sell off. There are very few G1s that I don't like (I sold off all my BBE babies, both my Eyelash Princesses and almost all my Newborn Twins this summer) and there are sets that I wouldn't want to break up, like So Softs and Twinkle Eyes. How do you guys figure out who to weed out without regretting it? 35

Pony Corral / Re: Is buying from Taobao ethical?« on: November 16, 2013, 11:11:57 AM »
So far the only things I have bought from Taobao are non-MLP, non-US release items that I would have been totally unable to get any other way. I believe that the items I purchased are likely overstock/discontinued stock rather than prototypes.

I got my Rapunzel with original, re-curled hair for $480 so I'm thinking a rehair should be even lower than that!

I know, it's ridiculous They have not responded to the dispute yet, nor emails or phone calls.
This card set wasn't even for me, but for another Arena member who requested that I try to order one for her! If ordering two sets wasn't allowed (even though I *did* receive an email from them when asked saying that it was okay), then they should at least have refunded me! 42

The big horse is Silkymane from Lady Lovely Locks, I think. That is Silkymane's saddle at least!
