Hi everyone!

As some of you might know, I've been trying to sell off some stuff to raise money for our trip to Disney World with my daughters dance school in the fall.  I'm not a huge seller on eBay, so for a few of my transactions, eBay is holding my funds until the package shows as delivered.

Well, the package is going overseas and because is printed a shipping label from eBay, it listed the amount of the sale.  The package is held up because of custom fees and the buyer has not claimed it yet. 

Am I responsible for paying the custom fees??  How and when can I get my funds available if the buyer doesn't pay the fees?  Will the package be returned to me if they don't end up paying?  I haven't encountered this before ever, so I'm at a loss.  Please help me!!

My answers:

Do you have any food or fragrance allergies?
None, but please no heavy perfumes as they can trigger my migraines.

What kind of candy or snacks do you like? Any dislikes?
I love candy!!  Skittles, Starbursts, Coconut M&M's, Sour Patch Kids, dark chocolate and Laffy Taffy.  I dislike black liquorish, banana or watermelon flavored, marshmallow, peanut butter, white chocolate, sugar-free and anything anise flavored.

Tell us a little about yourself! Maybe your favorite color, music, animal. Do you collect anything besides ponies? Do you have any kids or pets? Are you into any crafts? Be creative here!
Whew!  I'm what you might call a super collector.  I have an enormous Summer/Windy/Argie Wing collection that I enjoy.  Plus I'm a Monster High collector (I have a rocking collection of these dolls too!!), and you can always find me on the MH Arena.  My daughters collect MH and G4 ponies.  I have 3 daughters; ages 9, 7 and 3 who all love ponies.   

I'm a crafter, so things like Rainbow Loom, felt, yarn, Dolly Hair, fabric, beads or other craft supplies are welcome.  I am an avid rehairer who has a huge pile of ponies in need of hair!!!  I love all shades purple, pink, blue, green, teal, orange and others....just please no black.  Also, I love any kind of replacement wings....they can be like factory or completely hand-made!!

What pony condition(s) are acceptable or unacceptable to you? (ie haircuts, rubs, spots, ect.)
Michelle53 accepts any winger in any condition.  I don't mind if they have no wings, hair cuts, body marks, symbol scuffs, cancer/smooze or other issues.  Please no missing limbs;)

Do you have a pony army?
I have an enormous winger army.

Do you have any Equestria Girls Dolls? if so, who do you have?
My daughters collect them.  I have them all except the Rainbow Rocks dolls.

Do you customize ponies?  If so, would you like customization supplies as part of your extras (like dolly hair for example)?
I really enjoy rehairing ponies and giving my wingers replacement wings a as needed.  I would love some new hair colors, just no neons or black please.

Would you like a custom pony or re-hair as an extra?
Certainly if you're willing to make something for me, I would be so honored!

What generations do you like?  Are there any generations you would really prefer not to be included in your swap box?

I do not collect G2, G3 or G3.5. 

All time favorite pony? or pony set etc..?
All the Summer and Windy wing ponies are special to me, but my most favorites are Lady Flutter, Starry Wings and Cool Breeze.

As an extra, would you like a postcard or some small item pertaining to the area where your future box will come from? 
Absolutely!

Would you like something knitted?
Certainly:).  If you're able to only.

Do you like beaded jewelry, and what sizes/types of jewelry do you wear?
Jewelry is one of my most favorite things ever!  I am very into beads and sparkly bracelets:)

Do you like to get nail polish?  What colors, and is glitter a yes or no?
I love nail polish!!!  Please no glitter, just solid colors.

Do you like funky socks?
Not really.  I'm not a sock person, sorry.

Would you be happy with finding random, funny, happy things in the box?
You bet I would!  As long as it doesn't have anything to do with bugs.

Do you have pierced ears? Are you allergic to any metals? Favourite colours for Jewellery?
I have pierced ears, but my ears are rather sensitive so I'm afraid earrings are probably out.

Do you like stickers?
My daughters love stickers, so they would be very welcome in my home.

Would you like to get homemade treats?
Yummy, I love homemade treats.

Do you like make-up?  Any specific brands, products?
I'm crazy about make-up too.  I'm uber into eyeshadow and lip stick.  Any brand and any colors aces in my book.

Do you have a child, younger sibling, spouse, or roommate that may appreciate something extra in the box just for them?
I have 3 daughters, ages 9, 7, and 3.  They all love ponies and MH stuff.

Do you have any pets? Would you like to receive any toys or treats for them as extras?
No pets, I have too many kids  :lol:

Dear partner, Do you like/collect plushies, coloring books, stickers or any other pony themed things in particular?
I love all things ponies, from plushies to coloring books to stickers to hair accessories.

Partner, are there any small extras or non MLP items that you would be happy to receive in your swap box?
I like girly things like eye shadow, candles, DollyHair, jewelry, clips for hair, nail polish, candy and other fun and cute stuff.

Do you collect Monster High?
I have an enormous MH collection.  Currently, I'm only missing 4 dolls total to complete my collection.  I am always looking for Create a Monster pieces and Liv wigs!!  Plus custom MH clothes would be awesome!!!

Do you like Mobile Phone covers & Mobile Phone charms? If this is a yes what make is your phone? (that is if you have a phone & if it takes covers   most take charms  )   
Yes!  I have an iPhone 4, so most Zazzle cases fit my phone and they're all pretty inexpensive cause my phone is old  :lol:

Are you a coffee or tea drinker?  What kind do you like?
I'm an enormous coffee drinker.  I love flavored coffees, please no hazelnut.  I also love chai tea.

Anyone into cooking/ baking? and would you like to receive recipes?
I love to bake, and any new recipes would be welcome here.

Decorating the outside of the box?
It's what inside that counts.

Partner, do you like pony or any other fan art? If so, what would you like drawn?
I love winger art!

Do you like/want some pony wear? If so, are there favourite outfits you'd like?
No thank you, I don't collect pony wear.

What's everyone's favorite types of animals real or myth??
I love giraffes.  My oldest daughter loves squirrels and my middle daughter loves seals.

Anyone opposed to ponies not being wrapped up pretty if it means I can fit more in the box?
Either way is fine with me.

Trader & Shipping Support / I've so gotten screwed *PayPal Resolution*
« on: January 08, 2014, 12:33:48 PM »
Ok, this has really not been my month at all!!  So in addition to STILL not receiving my winger lot (apparently it was returned to the seller because they miscalculated the shipping?!?!  And it's supposedly been resent), I've been scammed twice on another forum.

This is another Monster High forum I sometimes visit, and they have a lively For a Sale section.  So I found 2 different dolls I wanted from 2 different sellers, and I paid for one using PayPal and the other using Square.  Both transactions occurred before Christmas (I even sent extra money for expedited shipping for one of the dolls).  NEITHER OF MH DOLLS HAVE ARRIVED YET!!!!!   I'm so upset right now.  What is going on with people lately?!?! 

I opened a case with PayPal for one of the dolls, but I don't know what recourse I can do with Square. 

So I did email both sellers.  The one I paid with Square told me last week that if my doll hadn't arrived by Thursday, that she'd refund me.  That has my happened yet.  The other seller hasn't replied to me yet.

God, how did this happen?!?!  How could I have been so dumb?!  I supposed I believed that people are decent, like most people are here.  I'm hoping PayPal will side with me on one of the transactions, as I have no tracking numbers to prove shipping.  Actually, I have no tracking numbers on any of these three transactions I'm having issues with!!!!

This is a stern warning to EVERYONE: be careful when it comes to dealing with people outside of the Arena.

Hey guys!  I bought a lot of wingers on December 17th from a seller on eBay.  They shipped my item on the 23rd and I haven't received it yet.  Is it too soon to open a case? 

I should mention that the seller didn't provide a tracking number and I've messaged them TWICE about this issue and haven't received a reply.

Pony Corral / Quick! Name 5 game!!
« on: December 23, 2013, 10:45:24 AM »
We need a fun game for the holidays:).  If you haven't played before, here's how it works: The first poster asks a questions, and the next poster has to name 5 ponies with characteristics matching the first posters request. 
Here's an example:
Quick!  Name 5 ponies with names that start with the letter A!

The responder would them post:
Applejack
Angel
Anchors Away
Autumn Sky
Alphabittle

Then they would pose their own Quick!  Name 5 question. 

Get it??  Lets being then!

Quick!  Name 5 Twinkle Eye Ponies!

Pony Corral / Wanna play a game?? Guess the pony!
« on: October 26, 2013, 11:56:57 AM »
Wanna play a game??  I'm going to list 3 clues, and you have to name the pony I'm describing.  Any generation, any pony!  If you guess, then you post 3 clues about a different pony. 

Here's an example:
1) I'm blue, mane, tail and body!
2) My name is 2 words that both start with B
3) I smell delicious, like a yummy summer fruit.

If you guessed Blueberry Baskets, you would be right!!  Then it would be your turn to post 3 questions for us to guess.

Ready??  Here we go!!

1) Who likes purple?  I do!!
2) I'm one of the most recognized ponies with a ton of nirvana versions!
3) I am one of the original 6 ponies made, and I have white flowers for symbols:)

Who am I???

It's been 2 great years Arena, and I'm still feeling the love.  Can you guys show me pictures of my most favorite ponies please??  Summer/Windy/Alitas....I love them all!

Trader & Shipping Support / Mylittleponylover92 is awesome. Resolved!!
« on: August 29, 2013, 05:39:36 AM »
*sigh*.  It is with a really, really heavy heart that I write this.  Back in March, I put out the offer for a private swap with a newer member to help them gain positive feedback.  Mylittleponylover92 enthusiastically sent me a reply and I instantly felt she would be a lovely partner to swap with.   I decided we would have a budget of $20 and would shop only for G4 ponies since they're relatively easy to come by.

After several months of corresponding, we agreed upon the second week of May to ship out our boxes.  I sent her box priority shipping to England, and waited to hear when she shipped mine out.  I know, I should have waited until I received confirmation that she sent my box first, but we had such great communication that I trusted her.

I received a message saying she'd had a family emergency and couldn't get to the post.  No problem, family comes first.  I told her to take her time and get my box out when she was able.

We communicated again in July, right before I went on vacation.  I sent her another message a few weeks ago, but it went unanswered.  Only after I sent an Urgent Message via PM did I receive a response from her boyfriend.  I'm not sure what's going on, but I'd like to know one way or another if I should anticipate a swap box or go ahead and leave negative feedback.

If anyone else is in contact with her, please let her know that she has until September 15 to notify me that my box had been sent (with proof of shipping) or I have no choice but to leave negative feedback.  I don't want to leave bad feedback, but this has gone on for just too long now:(.

I hate that it had to come to this.
