As mentioned in the title. I'm preparing a move overseas so I'm having to unload quite a few of my collection pieces.
The Paradise Estate I would put in Good Condition, there's some very minor yellowing to two of the roofs, has both heart pieces for the pool awning and 100% of the stickers and accessories. It comes with the box (which is in very beat up condition, so it's been stored in another box), and the instructions.
The Dream castle is the most gorgeous pink I've ever seen. Stickers are on the sheet. Comes with all of the accessories including the flags and all small accessories. Includes a gorgeous box and the instruction sheet.
I'll be looking to sell and I'm trying to avoid eBay.

I have a complete Paradise Estate and routinely drive to Southern California (San Diego & Anaheim) - If you ever want to chat about a payment plan for it I'm up for that! I can also help with getting you measurements since I was going to take it out for photos.

As a buyer, I usually leave feedback within 24 hours of receiving the item (unless there's a problem that I need to contact the seller to resolve... in that case I'd wait to see how the transaction works out in the end).
As a seller, I leave feedback after it's left for me. If the buyer doesn't leave feedback after 30 days, I usually leave feedback for them. If there were any issues with the transaction I won't leave feedback at all since you can't leave negative or neutral for a buyer.
I also find that more than 50% of eBay buyers don't leave feedback for sellers these days.  I'm not sure that anything can really be done about it... it is just the way a lot of buyers are.
+1 to this. As a seller this is basically what I do. Usually feedback being left is the only way I know that the buyer received the item. I ask them to let me know (I worry about things arriving as I sent them). So usually I leave feedback when I get feedback. I also don't leave feedback if there is an issue. eBay did change their feedback page now, so it brings up a "report your buyer" button if there was a problem. I just don't see that it actually does anything.

I'm slowly working on selling off my various collections and I've found headaches with these countries that make me choose to not ship to them unless the buyer understands the risks (facebook, board sales) or through the Global Shipping Program on eBay.
Russia - very long delivery times and scanning for tracking is hit or miss. I just had to refund a buyer $102 for a pony that is 'missing' because it was through eBay and despite the buyer saying they were fine (choosing to not pay for Priority Shipping) they opened a case and eBay made me refund it all despite showing I had indeed sent the parcel. So now I just have to hope that the person is honest if the pony every shows up. Other times (using After Ship, I can track packages on the Russian Post) it's taken between 3-5 months for delivery. My buyers, other than the eBay one have been OK - but I don't want to deal with the stress when selling through eBay so I will only send via Priority Mail off eBay and using the GSP on eBay.
Middle Eastern countries - Issues with customs and 'lost' mail. I will ship but only either priority international or GSP.
Italy - I choose not to ship toys. I'm too worried it will get confiscated by customs. I have shipped in the past with no issues, but again I'm very careful about my eBay sales.
South America (not-Mexico) - I've had items get lost, I once had an EMPTY box come back to me from Argentina with the item completely missing. Now I only ship via priority mail or the GSP.
eBay has just become a very unfriendly place to simple sellers honestly. I'm going to be very very glad when I'm finished with getting rid of most of collections just so I can go back to buying occasionally.

Whew. Okay, I managed to open her up and get some pictures ~ https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=oa.1709343719375848&type=1I haven't cleaned it since I bought it, so it will need a light cleaning. The only issue I see (other than the yellowed glue) is the felt banner has a tear in it. I'm not sure how that would affect the value. Thanks to everyone that has replied!

Working on dilgently selling my collection pieces. They've been in storage for going on 10 years now and I just decided it was time to pass them along. Prices are not what they used to be, so I'm not sure what to ask for this piece.
It's in excellent condition, I hate to say mint simply because it IS opened. The hinges are not broken or cracked. It comes with ALL of the accessories that were original to the set. It also has a box that's in excellent condition and the instructions. I'll add some pictures in the morning once it's not dark outside.
What's the ballpark I should ask for this item?
Thanks,
Shanna

Still working on clearing out my collection pieces. I have almost 200 items listed on eBay for sale. This is the last set of listing before Christmas. This is to ensure arrival by Christmas for items within the United States. My Little Pony Items http://www.ebay.com/sch/Toys-Hobbies/220/m.html?_ssn=kithsidhe&_sac=1

Working on listing up my collection. It goes slowly because I definitely don't want to get overwhelmed. I started with all my in package pieces because it was easier to photograph and describe than the loose pieces. I have a ton more to come, but I am wanting to make sure that I take my time with all my listings. I presently have the following up for auction: http://www.ebay.com/sch/My-Little-Pony/47227/m.html?_nkw=&_armrs=1&_ipg=&_from=&_ssn=kithsidheMIB - Princess Sunbeam MIP - Goldilocks Art Pony - Black/Blue Art Pony - Underwater 2008 Providence 2008 Sunny Grace 2010 Graffiti (purple) 2008 Ninja 2006 Trolley 2006 Frisco 2008 Fair Pony 2015 Chicken Pie 2010 Dandelion 2011 Tattoo 2009 Superhero 2011 Egyptian 2009 Peacock 2012 Muffin Pony Probably going to be listing my playsets next, complete Paradise Estate (100% complete) and complete Lavender Dream Castle.
