Title: Antique Mall haul
Post by: TheBeatlesPkmnFan42 on May 03, 2018, 01:49:18 PM: Been a while since I've had something I've felt to be brag thread worthy! I add to my collection pretty often, but usually small amounts at a time, just G4 ponies and merch that I don't feel is worthy of its own brag thread, so I just post it to Instagram and Amino and leave it at that.

But, I went to an antique mall today to see if they had gotten in more ponies since I was last there. They did, and it was pretty great! They had some G1s there, and during all my previous visits I had only ever seen G3 and G4.

Anyway, onto my new ponies!

Whoever this vendor is doesn't seem to do any research on ponies, which normally is frustrating as it often leads to overpricing, but it often leads to underpricing in the case of this vendor. They tend to price normal sized ponies around $2 - $5, and larger ponies $10 and below. The most I've ever spent here on a single pony was G3 styling Rarity for $10. Baby Paws was just $2.99, forget the prices of the others, but they were all around $3 or $4 each, Rarity was in a $9 bag with some ponies I already had (and thus didn't photograph), but I figured that was probably around her original price anyway so I got her despite her being the only one in the bag I didn't have. Anyway, Baby Paws was on my wishlist for a while, and now I finally have him! :lovey:

There were some more G1s beyond these four, but they were ones I owned already.

Ahh, I thought I saw it peeking out from under his mane, but I was mistaken. That's too bad. Still an exciting find, though! He's really cute.
