...Of course, I love them for their mintness, but it makes me wish the person who owned them before had thought for the longterm, rather than leaving those ponies in their weird limbo.
Baits can still be pretty! I also collect to restore and clean up. I'll try to make a bait pony display as nicely as I can (I think curls negate the need for lots of body cleanup ha) but it's the journey not the destination or whatever.
Some I'm on the fence with; I recently acquired what turned out to be a really beautiful Cherries Jubilee in a bait lot. She was filthy, but once I cleaned her up and repaired her hair, she looked like she just came out of the package except...some idiot in a thrift shop wrote a price on her in black sharpie marker! Who DOES that?!? I've tried acetone and magic eraser and good ole' elbow grease, but haven't put a dent in it. I'm trying to decide how much it bothers me; should I keep her as part of my collection or will it bug me into making her be a placeholder until I find another? Not sure.

Would perhaps some clothes cover up the price?
