Off Topic / Smule Sing, anyone?
« on: October 23, 2015, 08:08:18 AM »
Not long ago, I started using the Smule Sing! karaoke app. It's tons of fun. A MLP fan just started following me, which made me think there may be more Arena members who use Smule. Do you Smule? I will be happy to add you. My name is AMP_1981 if you would like to add me.

Price Check Archives / PCs, please, G3 and G4
« on: September 05, 2015, 06:05:31 PM »
First, a question: Do bends/creases/folded corners, etc. make much difference in price of MIB items? Several of my MIB items have these flaws. All seem minor to me, but I would still be a little afraid of selling them. I have already photographed them, and I would be sure to mention that my items are not for picky collectors. This folder shows the kind of flaws I'm talking about: http://s1221.photobucket.com/user/buddyboymama/library/Damages

Now, onto the ponies for which I need PCs. Photos are on my Photobucket: http://s1221.photobucket.com/user/buddyboymama/library/MLP%20Price%20Checks

G4s Loose:
Lulu Luck (slight factory eye smear)

Pony Corral / Funko Spike questions
« on: August 30, 2015, 07:21:41 PM »
Now that I have a little Spike to go with my brushables, my daughter says she wants another Spike. I have been eyeing the Funko Spike. How does he measure up size wise? Would he be a good companion for 'zilla ponies?

Off Topic / How do you celebrate your wedding/dating anniversary?
« on: August 13, 2015, 09:42:43 AM »
My tenth anniversary is coming up next week ... in exactly a week, actually. So I'm wondering ... How do you celebrate your wedding/dating anniversary, especially if it's a big one?

Pony Corral / G4 'zilla ponies
« on: July 20, 2015, 02:09:00 PM »
The G4 zilla ponies are my favorite size and style of ponies, but I've only managed to pick up two -- Fluttershy and Pinkie Pie. I found them at Family Dollar long ago, and it seems like they had Rarity and Twilight Sparkle(?). I stopped in today, and they only have brushables and blind bags. So, a few questions:

1) Are Celetia and Cadence zillas still available in stores? Are/were they found at a specific chain of stores?

2) Rainbow Dash and Applejack are international releases, correct?

3) Does anyone have them all? Pics welcome. :biggrin: I'm thinking really hard about selling off some HTF G4 ponies and MIB items to pay for the things I really want, like the rest of the zillas.

Pony Brag Arena / My collection
« on: January 24, 2015, 08:38:51 AM »
I love checking out everyone's collections here in the Brag Arena. Well, I finally got around to taking a picture of my own collection. This is just my loose ponies, minus the ones I want to sell. And Twilight Sparkle and my white goofy fakie, who I later found hiding under the love seat. Someday, I may get out the MIB collection and take photos of it, too. The baby G1 ponies in the front are what is left of my childhood collection. Not much else to say about them, so here they are ...

Trader & Shipping Support / RESOLVED! Advice about eBay purchase
« on: December 05, 2014, 07:54:58 AM »
On December 3, I did a BIN on a lot of Dollymix ponies and paid immediately. My eBay app, Paypal, and my bank all show that the payment has been completed. I never received an update on my order, so imagine my surprise when I saw the lot was relisted yesterday. The seller has 100% positive feedback, so I don't want to accuse them of anything. Maybe they have more than one set?Should I be concerned at this point? If I should contact the seller, how should I word it?

Off Topic / My NO buying online challenge!
« on: August 28, 2014, 09:59:55 AM »
Update 9/20:

OK, so I had to abandon the challenge. I was doing great, but my water broke at 29 weeks. I had my daughter at 29 weeks, 4 days. She's in the NICU, so I'm back to shopping online.

Original post:

Starting today, I am challenging myself to buy nothing online until after my birthday, which is 2 months away. I have been spending too much time and money shopping online ... thanks, Amazon and EBay. If I can't find something locally, I check online. So my hope is that I can change my spending habits for the better and save some money.

Have any of you done something similar?

Trader & Shipping Support / Resolved -- eBay return -- advice, please.
« on: August 30, 2012, 11:48:02 AM »
Sorry, this is probably going to sound really stupid. This is the first time I have ever had a problem with an eBay purchase. I received the wrong package, and sent the seller a message. She apologized and asked if I would please let her know what the postage will be and she will reimburse me to send it back to her. She will do the same with the buyer who received my package and get the correct package to me as soon as possible.

I am just a buyer, not a seller, so I don't have a postal scale. I take packages to the mailing store or the post office if I need to send someting. My question is, how can I tell her what it's going to cost without actually taking it to the post office and mailing it?
