I managed to purchase the whole second set of adult sea ponies, complete with shells + accessories in mint condition for $500 total from a lovely lady who was getting rid of her childhood toys. Always keep asking around and you might score a lucky deal!

We have here two Tonka Keypers for sale from my Keypers collection - I treasure them very much and they have a special place on my display shelf. Give them a good home!

I will put these up here for a few weeks. If there's no interest i'll move them to my etsy page https://www.etsy.com/shop/pixiemafia

Please feel free to shoot me a PM if there's any questions xo

They're in fantastic condition for their age - hardly any paint wear or discolouration, and superb hair.
Here they are with baby firefly for size comparison  :

OK enough is enough and it seems like i'm getting nowhere with the eBay help team.

I've committed to buy an item (non-pony) on October 7th from a seller with decent positive feedback. Afterwards I tried to make the PayPal payment as usual but received an error message stating that the seller's PayPal account is unable to receive payment transactions at the moment. I immediately contacted the seller to rectify it and was told by them that their PayPal account is down and instructed me to continue the monetary transaction on their own website.

I was very cool about it at first, but I didn't want to proceed with that while the eBay transaction is active as I feel extremely insecure on my end as an eBay buyer. I clarified my issue with the seller and nicely requested them to cancel my purchase so I can proceed with purchasing directly from them instead. To cut the long story short, each time I message them to cancel my purchase I either get blatantly ignored or they repeatedly tell me to make the payment on their website.

Here's our message thread consisting of me talking to myself mostly:




At this point i'm already feeling VERY iffy and uncomfortable, and refuse to pay because from my understanding it's discouraged to carry out eBay transactions externally and also a violation for sellers to change payment method after the sale. I tried my best to contact eBay for help via email since the seller refuses to communicate with me but I received a typical cookie cutter response to my ordeal (the type of info you can easily find in their FAQ) which is not useful at all  I don't  even think they bothered to read what I wrote in the email.

And recently out of the blue (after days of zero further communication), an unpaid item case was opened against me by the seller.    It's a total suckfest because I can't do anything about it but wait. My option is to wait for the seller to close the case so I can appeal for an unpaid item case. I have positive buyer feedback over the years and I don’t wish to have a strike on my account because of this. 

Does anyone have any advice on this??
I have never come across such a problem with sellers on eBay before

Hola! Dropping in to check my gif sig - is the weight ok?

So it turns out my box arrived on Tuesday but I haven't had the time to collect it from the post office till today! Have been pulling two all-nighters in a row trying to complete my essays before the deadline (I procrastinate a lot)  Now i'm finally freeeeeee and shall go into a deep sleep soon...

...BUT BEFORE THAT.. *DRUMROLLS*

Have you ever seen so much pink goodness in your life??
 
Such gorgeous wrapping paper! In my favourite colour to boot! I love the wrapper so much i've salvaged some of them like the true hoarder that I am  And it's so sweet that Ledbyrd's little girl made that drawing for me. So cute and precious!

I had so much fun digging out all the fun treats. I love bubblegum especially Hubba Bubba (how'd you guess!) - it's been years since I had them. The smaller bubblegum sweets are perfect for sharing with my nieces and nephews! The plastic mini horse/unicorn figurines are adorable as well and was a fun surprise

Oh!! I can't tell you how much I love this card!! Firefly is one of my favourite G1s and the fact that it's handmade is an A+ for me. And those cool gems! Did you draw this, Ledbyrd?

More handmade awesomeness.. Ledbyrd's so talented! I adore sea ponies too and it's so cute that they're made into jewellery. Realised I flipped the sea ponies the wrong side after taking this photo - they are suppose to be pinkish rather than purple.

More candy!! I never had those Ice Breaker Sours before so i'm pretty excited to taste them. I have a mad passion for Lisa Frank stickers and I could only get those online so.. thank you so much!!! And of course souveniers from Canada - magnet's going straight on my fridge while I need to find someplace to paste the sticker 


Last but not least, the ponies!

Not one, but two Baby pony necklaces! I was pleasantly surprised! I've been looking for this particular Pinkie Pie and another wonderful merry-go-round pony for my collection! Both of them are amazing! Baby Splashes is the first Baby Fancy Pants pony I have, so she's special 

I can't thank you enough for the wonderful box Ledbyrd, I really do love everything  It immediately brightened my day after a stressful period. This is my first swap and it has been such a rad experience 

Aahh I love all the boxes everyone has been getting!
