Did I get this for a good price?
« on: August 16, 2014, 01:53:57 PM »
I bought my first lot this morning!  I was kinda sleepy, and still waking up, but I saw a pony I want in there so I just sorta got it.  Figured 2$ a pony wasn't too bad, but I think most of them are common so I'm not sure?  I keep wondering if I should regret spending the money because there's another lot ending soon I wanted but can't now, but if I find out I didn't overpay too much I'll be fine with it.

It was 14$ buy it now, and shipping made it 20$

I keep buying big brothers, and I'm super low on money now.  My TE collection is never gonna be completed 
:redface:

Edit:
Now that that's been figured out, if anyone sees this would they mind telling me how much QB's helmet would be worth, and how often it shows up for sale?  And Quackers prices, since I already own one, though she has pink stripes between her legs.  I'm not sure if I'll be keeping both.

Wow, you got a great deal! TE Quackers is from the second set of TEs and doesn't come up very often.

Definitely a good price - especially with Quarterback and Quackers in there!

That looks like German Baby Glory to me (no glitter on her symbol)

I'd say definitely a good deal!  Many Quarterbacks and Quackers have brown spots, and those look to be in good shape.  Those two alone can go for $14 or more each in good condition.  Congrats!

Oh gosh! Yes with Quarterback and Quackers in there thats a great price!

Quarterback's helmet will run $15-18. Big Brother hats are not really that hard to find and show up reasonably often. However they are super popular and very sought after, thats what keeps their price high.

Does Quackers have any age marks at all?

It would be neat to gave a German baby Glory but the seller makes it seems like these are just their childhood toys, and since they're US based it's probably just bad lighting/quality photos not showing up the glitter. ;;

I don't have them yet, but should tomorrow, since it was two day shipping, so I'll update with Quackers condition.  QB obviously has that smudge on his cutie mark.  Hoping that's easily repaintable so he'll look pretty next to Salty on my shelf..

Alright, unfortunately everyone but Quackers and Quarterback is cleaning up mostly well.  Except Baby Glory.  She's very gross colored and I don't want to touch her right now. 

QB has some faint age marks, two faint pink marks, and what looks like someone took a dark blue pen and put a cluster of dots around his shoulder.  And really long brownish marks going down from his rear/behind a leg, are those age marks, too? They're like perfect lines.  Either way, he's being kept.  All the marks just make him a manly football playing pony that was made for little girls.

Quackers is an off white, though it doesn't look too bad in the light.  She has two faint blue steaks on her neck,  and another one on her DS  leg, along with a tiny one being on the edge of her NDS foot, near her ear.  There's two age spots under her DS cutie mark, but they weren't noticeable really to me.  She's also got some going on the foot that's bent, but those really can't be seen.  There's also two faint pink marks on either side of her neck.  One of her eyes is scuffed and I think she might have tail rust....  Okay, I think that's it.  So, assuming she's worth nothing, then?  I was hopeful she could be traded for a cheaper Twinkle Eyed pony..

You got a great deal! Quarterback alone could be worth that much. Good job!

Age marks are pretty common place on that pair unfortunately. Even with their issues its a good deal as if you were selling you would certainly get more than a couple of $$ on them, even with their problems.

That's so good to know, thank you so much!  Hopefully I can find someone wanting Quackers.
