Quote from: Ficklefae on August 03, 2016, 02:07:29 AMSo what about the ponies Pierlala sent in trade to Tak?She sent them in exchange for shipping. I wasn't comfortable shipping without tracking and that can get spendy overseas. She was trying to sell the ponies for rapunzel funds anyway.Post Merge: August 03, 2016, 09:52:26 AMVery well said hathorcat.
So what about the ponies Pierlala sent in trade to Tak?
Nella, I haven't had much interaction with you... I believe it was just that you didn't take PayPal? :/ my memory is not perfect. I didn't intentionally push pierlala to buy. She had asked if there was any way the seller could hold the pony because she wanted it, but wouldn't get paid for roughly ten days. I hope she didn't feel pressured and did ask if she was sure before I made the payment. I'm not feeling like a victim of anything other than my own choices. I tried to encourage pierlala to tell her side honestly and to stay. Take a break if she needed to, but that she certainly didn't need to leave. I take responsibility for the whole mess. My fault. At least I learned some things that I have to do differently if I ever try to be a go between in the future.

I hadn't transfered money to or from non-EU countries before so never needed it. Your memory is very good . I hope that Pierlala will come back too. No need to go away, but I can understand that she feels attacked / not trusted.
Quote from: DrEsmeRose on August 02, 2016, 09:44:22 AMFF,Especially since she is a Rapunzel, I had and still have no idea if her hair is perfect. The woman I originally purchased her from had this in eBay listing: Hair: All plugs are present. Her tinsel gets a little wild but it is not too crinkly. I do not think she has a hair cut as the ends of her hair have a factory appearance. Her curls are a little tight right now. I included a picture of her all wet when I was shampooing her so you can see the length. She does have some dryness and frizz.(Original listing from which I PM purchased: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Rare-Vintage-G1-My-Little-Pony-Mail-Order-Offer-Rapunzel-Gorgeous-/322060375525?cp=1&euid=4b0fc9bc178e47eeabafc34e79ded635&nma=true&si=Bni0yjq50JCtqggGiisy5yhZYlc%3D&orig_cvip=true&rt=nc&_trksid=p2047675.l2557) Just out of personal curiosity... DrEsmeRose, when you put Rapunzel up for sale, did you mention anything at all about Rapunzel's mane looking like it may not be right? Looks like the seller you got her from mentioned it possibly being a factory flaw of some sort, but did you pass along that information to your potential buyers? Kudos if you did and even if you didn't, it's still up to the buyer to catch those kinds of things. At a $800-900 price (basically her value in mint condition), any minor quirks like that should be brought to the buyers attention, especially when they could be overlooked by hair that's curly or flipping in different directions. I've been a very long time collector, and I have to admit, I don't think I would've caught it without measuring my own Rapunzel's hair :/ Ultimately it was Tak's responsibility to ask about any flaws, but I can see why she assumed there weren't any at that asking price and the way the hair is flipped. If you didn't mention there *might* be a flaw, it would be helpful if you did in future sales to help avoid a situation like this If you did mention it, you did all you could. I think we can all learn some lessons here in selling and buying!

The eBay auction said the hair looked like factory length and that the tinsel was crinkly. I didn't see anything about factory flaws
