Wanted! / Seeking G1 SS Twilight in any condition
« on: May 22, 2016, 12:50:59 PM »
Rehaired and or deflocked or sad condition is fine but I'd take minty too! I'd really love to trade but will consider buying. US trader preferred. Thanks!

My trade list:
Lady Flutter (summer wing or windy wing, very good to near mint)
Tex (very good condition)
Baby lucky leaf (rusty inside but outside looks great)
Newborn twins noodles and doodles near mint
Almost complete set of mail order sparkle ponies  (only one missing is Napper, all in great condition)
Rainbow baby star bow (the white earth one)
Newborn twin dibbles (or nibbles? The Orange one, great condition)
Moonstone (I'm pretty sure she's the mail order one, great symbols, VGC-NM)
Plush Cherries Jubilee great shape

Pony Corral / Question about cleaning plushies
« on: May 22, 2016, 12:42:30 PM »
I recently rescued a bunch of new MLP plushies from the side of the road. They appear to be in great shape, but they obviously came from a smoking household. I left them outside to air dry for two weeks and they're better but still smell a bit, especially if you sniff them directly. I'm afraid if I wash them in the machine their tinsel and sparkly wings will get ruined. I read online you can put them in a bag with baking soda but I'm also worried that may be bad for them. Any recommendations? Thanks!

Several G1s for sale, best for the not-so-picky collector. Some of them are in great condition, but none are what I would call excellent to near mint. I am willing to do discounts if you buy several ponies, and also will consider reasonable offers. Right now I am only shipping within the U.S., and I am accepting PayPal (no trades!). No holds longer than 72 hours please. Thanks for looking!

I'm having some technical difficulties, so I'm afraid there aren't pics here, but there are pics of all my sales ponies here:

Pony Corral / Ponies and morals
« on: August 10, 2015, 03:53:49 PM »
Is it morally wrong to separate a pony from her lifelong playmate? It sounds bizarre I know, but hear me out. I recently acquired a lot of ponies, and in the lot is a nibbles and dibbles. I have every reason to believe that this pair was originally packaged together and has spent the last 25 years together. The nibbles is in fabulous shape, but the dibbles has marker on his face :(

I have a dibbles in my collection in great condition. I want to sell the nibbles and dibbles pair. I am considering keeping the one with marker on his face in my personal collection (because I don't mind it so much), and selling the nibbles with my former dibbles, because then they will both be in fab shape and will probably sell better. I don't have a nibbles. Is it wrong to separate poor marker face dibbles from his twin? Is it wrong to just stick my old dibbles with this other nibbles and assume they'll get along?

Yes, I know they're just bits of vinyl or plastic, and I'm being pretty silly, but...hear me out. What do you think?

Wanted! / New tail for star hopper
« on: April 27, 2015, 02:51:22 PM »
I need a yellow with gold tinsel tail for my poor star hopper who lost hers. I am open to a donor tail from another star hopper (even if it is rusty or the tinsel is very crinkly, or even if it's trimmed), or I am open to one made with dolly hair or whatever custom hair, as long as it will match her mane (doesn't have to be a 100% match, but you know, match well enough). I honestly don't want to pay too much as the pony herself isnt worth much anyway (and it's not like she was a childhood pony or anything). Anyway, just thought I'd see what was possible. Thanks!

I emailed the bidder and told her to cancel the auction/sale. I told her she should be able to do it through my ebay and if she was having trouble to use ebays help pages. She responded with this helpful gem:
"I talked to ebay and they said you have to cancel it, I cant do it."

So...what now??

13
Pony lady that quote says the buyer can only request a cancellation within an hour; she didn't say she wanted to back out until 2 days later. Does that mean it's too late to cancel?

14
I guess one question I have is: are you (or is anyone) certain that I will not be charged the final value fee for the sale if I cancel? Ebays help page did not answer this question and I called customer service and the agent kept stressing it was best to go through the resolution process instead of canceling. When I asked if I'd get the final value fee back  if I cancelled he sort of said yes but sounded unsure and kept pushing for me to open a dispute through the resolution center.

15
I'm more than a little irritated so please excuse the excessive ranting. I bought a Kate spade bag on eBay a few months ago. The seller hadn't mentioned the detachable cross body strap, and it wasn't pictured, but she had said she bought it new direct from Kate spade, and I've bought the same style bag on eBay before when the cross body strap wasn't pictured and was still included, and it was a good buy it now so I went for it.

The bag arrived not only without the strap but also with stains and other previously unmentioned issues. I contacted the seller who refused to do a refund, and I just didn't want to deal with it so the bag stayed in my closet until last week.

I decided to sell on eBay; I took many pictures,  and described it thoroughly. In both the "item condition" section and the main description I very clearly stated "the cross body strap is not included. " The auction was up for seven days and ended two days ago. I sent the winning bidder an invoice yesterday. This morning I got an email from her saying "I didn't notice the cross body strap wasn't included, please cancel the sale. "  Obviously I'm furious; not only did I clearly state it in the auction twice but it wasn't pictured and I myself went through almost the same situation as a buyer (where it wasn't clearly stated in the auction) and I had to suck it up and buy it. In my auction I also stated all sales were final and it was the buyers responsibility to ask questions before bidding.

What can I do? I sent the other bidder a second chance offer this morning but she already told me that she has since bought a different one and no longer wants this one. Will this EBay buyer get a strike against her if I go through the resolution center process? I'm so so so frustrated, I feel this buyer is being irresponsible; who bids on an item without reading either the description or item condition thoroughly?  I don't want to wait another seven days just to sell this stupid bag that's brought me nothing but trouble :(
