About Me
I’m an illustrator who turned 28 this year. I sell adoptable character designs on deviantART:

I also sold a bunch of my old university books on Amazon UK. Only one seller was kind enough to leave a review, but it's worth noting that I didn't receive any complaints  :biggrin: :

Apologies, but I wanted to bring everyone's attention to the photos that are now viewable  >_< Obviously, everything looked fine on my laptop, so for the past 2 months I'd no idea that nobody else could see them...  -_-

Price drop!

If in about a month's time there's still no interest, I'll be moving the Ponies to ebay & consequently will be raising prices. Thanks for your consideration!

They aren't the most popular ponies, I would say $10-20 each with the expection of satin splash you might get $25 ish for her

Yes, I've definitely gotten the sense that they're not very desirable, but thought I'd be optimistic with pricing anyway just to test the waters! Thank you for the advice & for reminding me to stay realistic!

Hello everypony! I’m selling Generation 2, Mint-On-Card My Little Ponies:

visitors can't see pics , please register or login


IMPORTANT: Returns not accepted. Please inspect photos carefully and be satisfied with the condition of the product before purchasing.


Where they came from
When G2 Ponies were sold in UK stores, my parent bought 4x 'Secret Surprise Friends' and 1x 'Magic Motion Friend' for a child relative overseas. To save on shipping, that child's parents insisted they'd collect the parcel on a family visit, but by the time this happened, the child had outgrown the toys and my parent had forgotten the parcel existed. It's taken us 18 years to rediscover these My Little Ponies! They’ve been sealed away inside a box for too long and deserve a loving home.

Want to see more photos?
Photos of the sides, back, hooves and known imperfections of each Pony are available upon request via Personal Message.


Cupcake - £16.99

visitors can't see pics , please register or login


Condition: One manufacturer fault; the paint has peeled back from the small magnet on her nose.


Berry Bright - £15.99

visitors can't see pics , please register or login


Condition: Card has minor warping with a small crease on the back.


Secret Tale - £15.99

visitors can't see pics , please register or login


Condition: Card has a severe crease that runs along the top edge of the plastic box, which is dented at the bottom-left corner. One manufacturer fault; it looks like the sticker set (undamaged) that comes with the Pony had slipped into the margins of the card before the product was sealed. With the stickers in the way, that part of the plastic box couldn't glue to the card properly. This means there’s two inches of unsealed, rippled plastic on the bottom-left side.


Wingsong - £19.99

visitors can't see pics , please register or login


Condition: A quarter of the graphics on the back of the card has been torn off; likely from careless removal of a sticky label. Otherwise packaging is secure and intact.


Satin Splash - £26.99

visitors can't see pics , please register or login


Condition: The bottom corners of the card are slightly curled and there's a remnant of a sticky label at the front-top-right of card, but otherwise the packaging is in perfect condition.


Pricing
Ebay would only let me offer one type of international delivery service, so I’d very much like to give collectors the chance to choose better-value postage here. We can also both benefit from not having to pay ebay’s 10% fee. Please be aware that if nobody shows interest in my Ponies here, I’ll have to list them at higher prices on ebay.


Packaging
Products will be bubble-wrapped and shipped in single-walled cardboard boxes, which are sticky-taped and afterwards wrapped in postal paper. Voids are filled appropriately to cushion products. Buyers pay 83p for the box (which I bought in bulk at a wholesale price here: http://www.kitepackaging.co.uk/scp/boxes/standard-cardboard-boxes/). All other packaging (bubble-wrap, void fillers, tape, postal wrapping) is free.


Postage
Worldwide shipping from the UK. Give more than one Pony a home and save on post and packaging! Cost depends on the Ponies you’d like, shipping location and your preferred service, but here’s an overview (prices include packaging):

UK delivery: £3.68 to £5.28
Delivery to Europe: £6.43 to £11.93
Delivery to rest of the world: £8.63 to £16.23


Payment
Once I send your invoice, I’ll expect payment to be made in British Pounds (GBP) through PayPal within 2 days. When I receive payment, I’ll post your Pony in one working day (I’ll tell you in advance if there’s any reason for delayed despatch).


Term and Conditions
•   Returns not accepted. Please inspect photos carefully and be satisfied with the condition of the product before purchasing.
•   Payment must be sent via PayPal within 2 days of receipt of invoice, otherwise your order will be cancelled and the Pony will be put back up for sale.
•   The international buyer is responsible for covering any import duty, tax and custom clearance charges that may be due.
•   If you’re not available to receive or collect your Pony or you supply incorrect delivery information and the parcel consequently bounces back to me, I will refund the price of the Pony, but not post and packaging.
•   Should a Pony get lost or damaged in transit, I will consider the claim carefully. Please remember I’d be wary of refunding costs if, for example, the package had been sent via standard delivery with no tracking. I’d also be wary if you can’t prove the Pony was damaged before you opened the parcel (it may be worthwhile to film this moment). Sufficient evidence will be required.
•   By contacting me, you would have read and agreed to these Terms and Conditions.

Price Check Archives / Price Check please for G2 MOC ponies

Hello MLP community!

I've spent a long time trying to work out what my Ponies can and should sell for. Research taught me that they're unpopular with collectors, however I can see from ebay listings that there is mild interest from a handful of fans.

My problem isn't new: I don't want to lose money, because the Ponies I have are uncommon/rare. I also don't want to charge unreasonable prices, because demand is small. Unsurprisingly, postage, ebay & PayPal fees make pricing extra difficult.



I'd love your opinions. Please let me know the most amount of money (including Post & Packaging) someone would be happy to spend on...

Generation 2, Mint-On-Card 'Secret Surprise Friends' (1998):

Berry Bright (card has minor warping with small crease on back)
Note: One ebay seller sold MOC Berry Bright for £20 (EXcluding Post & Packaging) in summer 2016.

Cupcake (manufacturer fault: paint has peeled back from the small magnet on her nose)

Secret Tale (dent in bottom-left corner of plastic box; severe crease on card. Manufacturer fault: looks like the sticker set (undamaged) that comes with the pony had slipped into the margins of the card before the product was sealed. With the stickers in the way, that part of the plastic box couldn't glue to the card properly. There's 2 inches of unsealed plastic on the left side)

Wingsong (a quarter of the graphics on the back of the card has been torn off; likely from careless removal of a sticky label. Otherwise packaging is secure and intact)


Generation 2, Mint-On-Card 'Magic Motion Friend' (1998):


Satin Splash (bottom corners of card are slightly curled and there's a remnant of a sticky label at front-top-right of card, but otherwise perfect condition)


I'd be happy to upload photos if that'd help. Many thanks for your time!

Welcome to the Arena :newpony:

I hope the pony bug continues to grow rapidly with you in 2017!  Are you actively collecting or just prefer to draw and talk ponies? :)

Thanks for the welcome! I'm here because I need some help from the MLP community (up to now, I've only been a quiet observer - watching Friendship Is Magic, Bronies React & liking fanart, but not really commenting or interacting with fellow fans).

I have five Generation 2, Mint-On-Card Ponies I'd like to sell, but am having difficulty working out prices that will be fair for collectors as well as myself. I'd appreciate advice from people who know what they're talking about, so will be opening a price-check thread soon.

Happy new year and welcome to the arena !! I would love to see some of your art!!  ;)

Thank you!! I've taken a peek at your dA gallery & love the sketch you've done of Princess Celestia & Princess Luna! Very elegant & delicate work  :)

My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic fan art is something I've been wanting to do for a long time, but there always seem to be "more important" projects that need my attention  >_< Hopefully 2017 will be my year!!

Hi everypony! I'm Aiyanne ~ I'm 27 and work as an illustrator who specialises in digital vector art. I draw in anime and kawaii styles.

As a child, I loved watching the 80s My Little Pony cartoon series. The pony toys I collected and remember fondly were from Generation 2 (each one I played with has long since been donated to charity!). As an adult, I've become a big fan of My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic.

I look forward to getting to know this community!
