I'm a bit purturbed with evilbay atm... I found some auctions that I was REALLY excited about but all of a sudden they :glitter: disappeared. I HATE it when people remove auctions like that. Grrrr. Well, I do have 3 ponies for my partner already.
Question - is it expected to get Nirvanas or MOC items? I would struggle on the budget to get either for my partner and if I did then I wouldn't be able to get much else!
How do you feel about So-Softs? Collect them or no? This includes customs.
NoD you are totally making me LOL with your spending spree!! :lol: :happy:
:blush: I'm prolly gonna sound really weird here but I really cannot wait to start gift wrapping my partners stuff!! :P *is excited* :frolic: :frolic: :frolic:
I knew going in that I had no real budget for this.
I have a dream that one day, I will have a large dance and prance army.
I have a dream that one day, they will all be complete with accessories.
I have a dream that one day, all of the ponies will have working mechanisms, and that they will all dance together to Mambo Number 5.
My pile of supplies for the crafting I have planned is sitting by my table MOCKING ME. .... *hides it under the bed*ROFL!! :lmao: wow some of you are totally putting me to shame with the amount of stuff you got already! :lol: I must go shopping again right now :P :accomplished:
Nice pics TwilightWhispers!
Erhm ... checked what I already got and noticed spent double of the amount I "should" already lol ... think I should stop buying ponies or I'm broke before april and not able to pay the shipping costs LOL

No pink whistles! To be fair, nobody attempted to outbid me. I will stop now. :blush:
Another pony for my partner arrived today. How can only 3 be in my possession when it feels like I've bought so many?!
AusMLP: That G3 custom with the curls is GOOOOORGEOUS! If you don't mind me asking, who is the talented artist? :what:
I am thinking of venturing a bit more over the budget, ahurr...
...oops! I hit the buy button. OwO
Sorry guys, I am a horrible host at the moment... I have some pretty heavy real life issues you don't even wanna know about. BUT that will change pretty soon and I will get my internet back. At least that problem will be resolved.
I just wanted to let you know that I have no words for how sorry I am to let you guys alone for so long... :(
T-Shirts? M, please :)
And no matter which flaws you ask me about, I take Squirmys with every kind of flaw. Even with missing body parts ^.^
Aww, it's okay Spark, we take care of ourselves pretty well ^_^
I AM HAVING A CASE OF THE SWAP CURSE! OHNO!
D':
It's official...

The new army has started!
But your partner is not allowed to send you any Wiggles since they are not part of the swap! visitors can't see pics , please register or logino_O I wouldn't expect them to, and haven't asked them to. I just wanted to share!

I've overpaid on a few ponies for my partner but I'm using their average sale price to make sure my partner gets a fair amount ...is that ok? I mean if the pony is worth $5 but I pay$10 I only use $5 of the budget?

You were going by the budget?! :shocked:
Oh my... I'm afraid, I don't have a highlight :shocked:I'm sure you will make a wonderful custom, which will be the highlight :-)
:yikes:
Guys, this is not the time to panic yet :PIt's my first Army swap, so I'm in panic the whole time ;-)
Then comes my fave part! putting the box together with all the fancy wrapping paper and the extras! :frolic: :frolic: :frolic:

What is this page 2?!!! :shocked:
About the last pony...it is too high, I mean, I have bought a lot of ponies and merchandise and I'm total over the budget, but the new pony...sorry, it is too expensive. Okay, this means, pony shopping is over, I have to sit down and work on some crafty things
Mine ended about 50 Euro... that was really too much.

I'm the same. Spotted something great yesterday - although knowing my partner they probably already have it - but it was a small item for £10, and just too big a chunk of money. Maybe if yesterday had been pay day!
I suspect that I might have spent the swap budget on postage already (£2-3 an auction soon adds up!), so I think I'm pretty much done shopping now.

Why is it that when you have long since decided that you are finished shopping for your partner that tons of great things pop up for sale?!INORITE?? Ugh!
I am "done" with shopping but there is one more pony variant that if I see her for a good price I will buy. I made a list of ponies to look for and this pony was on it, so I'm still looking, even though I totally shouldn't be!

***dives in***
I have about 18-20 decapitated and tailless ponies in my shower right now.
...of course I had a shopping list. Didn't everyone? XD
...of course I had a shopping list. Didn't everyone? XD
Yep.. only mine turned out to be like...2 and a bit sides of A4 paper :P :faint: Its sooo hard not to hunt everything on there *twitchy twitch twitch* :drunk: :yikes: (which is what I would do normally if it was my own shopping list hehe! :lol: ) . I would be unbelievably broke if I did that though
...of course I had a shopping list. Didn't everyone? XD
18-20 ponies? Holy moley, I've gone way over budget with muuuch fewer ponies lol...not having overpaid :P
I recieved one more today, yay! she's perfect :D
Also, I have a crisis! Not the end of the world but a major upset in my plans of awesome. :(
The wire mesh that I bought to do some sculpting may not arrive now until March due to issues with the seller. I have a thread in TS about it, but I'm too skint to buy else where!
I am hoping that I already bought some. I was eyeing it up quite some time ago so... Maybe I did, put it in the drawers and just forgot!
I have a question!
Is there anything, candy-wise or so, that you've never had and want to try, or something you really really like that you'd like t get?
For me, there are a lot of things I'd love to try - for instance Kool Aid, never had that. or pop tarts!
I am wild about skittles, too.
(cherry flavour is my preferred flavour in all cases)
Also:
Any food allergies?
(can't remember if thsi was in the signup form, but better safe than sorry!)
for me, I have. Apple, pear, pineapple, kiwi, chili, paprika (and peppers in general), curry, artificial sweeteners. And pretty much anything spicy. (Ginger is allright tho)
Artificial apple, pear, kiwi and pineapple are OK though!
Yes, there are lots of other nummy kinder products. The egga are the most fun though, I do miss those.
Ok guys I'm panicking - I have bought about 10 ponies for my partner now, but they're all standard releases and no nirvana ponies! Is this ok? Or should I look for some nirvanas? Just for reference my partner will be getting customs too :)
Edit: I collect all gens :)
Oh and Daffy, the mesh is almost on the way and should be with you pretty soon. Last thing I've shipped to the UK took only 3 days to arrive! *crossing fingers*

What generation you mostly collected and is any ponies you are mostly seeking?
I am armed with extra strength magic erasers - pony cleaning day!

I feel much, much better now!
of course, the thought behind the gift is an important aspect. I was a bit caught up in an 'ohnoooo everybody buys LOTS of ponies and I can't because I'm too poor D:'
But I guess my 5 ponies (and possibly one or two more) are enough then :P
My partner won't get 10 ponies either. :cry: I feel rather bad about that, but my partner's wishlist was not that easy. So 10 ponies simply weren't in my (extended) budget.
I hope my partner will enjoy the package inspite of that.
Some of our armies would cost waaaay more than the budget if our partner tried to get a lot of them. The people who have more HTF armies understand that I'm sure, so try not to worry ;)
Nonsense! if I don't get at least 10 ponies I'm going to be really upset! :P
the bad thing is that one of the ponies for my partner is sooo nice (and I dont have her in my own collection) that I wanna keep her for myself! :crazy: I wont .. but the temptation .... :drunk:
Naraya your hamster is so adorable!!!! I love the pic!
Naraya your hamster is so adorable!!!! I love the pic!
Thank you, PonyMonsters! Unfortunately he died last august - I still miss him, he was such a cutie! :lovey:
YES it's the last one... really... no, actually, really. Because I have to get crafty stuff done o_o I don't even remember when the ship date is... I know it's coming up.
btw. I have to ship a bit earlier - around March 30th
Hope that's not a problem?
I'm on vacation from March 31st till April 4th and cuz of the easter holidays it makes more sense shipping earlier than later =)
*any suggestions*?
Thanks partypony! I wonder - FPM if you're here, maybe you could edit your first post on this thread to include info from the original, or a link to it? http://mlparena.com/Forums/viewtopic/t=282345.html

Question!Same here, 17 cm ;-)

Wrist circumference
Preferably in centimetres. ;)

I have a question... would my partner like a copy of the FIM magazine? ( I think its a UK only thing? )
I have a question... would my partner like a copy of the FIM magazine? ( I think its a UK only thing? )No FIM stuff for me please.
I have a question though! The ponies that you (my partner) likes are somewhat prone to symbol damage. Would you prefer the symbols to be left au natural, or would you like them to be touched up?

And OMG THE CAT IS ON THE DESK WITH THE CRAFTY THINGS - PANIC! :shocked:That is what I'm thinking, when one of my chinchilla jumps on my bed...
ahahah, I finally got pony number two won! yay.... my partner will actually get to add to their army :P

If you are my partner then it is fine to touch up symbols if you prefer to - same goes for anyone else who is used to doing customs, but if my partner is new to customizing , or isnt so confident with symbol touch -ups then please leave them as they are and I'll still be happy with them :heart:
...
Are blind bags/Dollymix/ponyville classed as ponies or extras?
I'd include dolly mix etc as ponies but they're not terribly expensive
So I guess it doesn't matter which bit you include them in! :)
lol, good thinking, Lunar_Scythe! I wish I had the economy to do that x*D
Question: partner do you like g1 customs (only super baity ponies used)
got a bunch of goodies for my partner in the mail today, lol, they are getting so spoiled! I have a bad habit of buying *anything* I think my partner may want and then deciding what to actually send later...I've got probably 3 or 4 times the budget worth of ponies at this point, I'll probably send about half of what I've got. ^^; :sigh: The good thing is, this way if an item or two isn't up to being sent(bad shape, or doesn't arrive in time), I have a replacement before I get stuck, lol?
Question: partner do you like g1 customs (only super baity ponies used)
I'm not feeling the G2 love in this thread guys! :P*grins* I have a G2 Bluebelle custom, does she count? haha, I have no idea if it's supposed to be Bluebelle or not, but the star G2 merch design(cell phone case, patch, shirt, and button, that I've seen) looks close enough to a Bluebelle for me, so I had her commissioned.
Do people really not want them as part of their armies? :cry:
*hugs G2s*

I'm also waiting for 2 ponies from ebay...
Will wrappe tomorrow the next stuff(had to put my near 12 years old rabbit in sleep, so there was no mood today for this :-( )
*puts on the badge* If the ponies are for someone else it's okay though, right? right??
I just had a thought! This being an army swap, I need my partner to provide an accessory for my armies as an extra....
More shelving! You can come and put it up and everything! :drunk:
Right now I'm still giftwrapping (YAY!! love!! squee!!!! :frolic: er heehee did I mention that i like this part?...... :lookround: :blush: )
so excited just waiting 1 more pony to arrive getting a little nervous how close the deadline is but ill have to send the last one after if shes delayed!! everything crossed!! cant wait to see the teaser piccies from everyone!!
Ok so my partners last ponies have turned up apart from 2 ..... *hopes they hurry up* :yikes:
Ringlets can you wrap mine for me please?! :angel: :lol:

Yay!! I'm so glad they arrived!! :cheer: :frolic: :cheer: (well most of them anyways - heres hoping the other 2 get here tomorrow) and of course I will do your wrapping :lovey: ...although it wouldnt be quite as much fun if you turned out to be my partner and I ended up wrapping up my own swapbox LOL :P
Still waiting on 3 items - argh, that's making me nervous! :huh:
Same here! Don't worry, we still have 2 weeks! :)
I wouldn't mind another two weeks, it would give me a little extra time to get my crafty stuff done :)
Oh dear, I'm having problems with one of the customs I wanted to get for my partner. I had some commissioned to do it and it turned out great. But the person shipped in a padded envelope and the custom broke. So I send it back to her to fix it. She fixed the custom, stuffed it in a box that was too small and the custom broke again. I'm so frustrated right now! But it's really good to know that we have the extra time. So I hope I'll be able to sort this out in time! :|

OMG why wouldn't they pack it properly in the first place, poor pony!!
Thanks to all of you! :hug:
I really don't know what to do now. I would try to fix the custom myself, but I'm not a customizer myself and I want the custom to be perfect. :/ What really makes me angry though is that the person wants me to pay shipping back to her again. And really, why should I do this? It's not my fault that it broke.

Perhaps you don't want people in the swap helping, but I could help if you'd like some help, I'm a customizer. I'm so sorry this has happened to you :( if this turns nasty, you should write to a mod about it and possibly also in TS. :hug:
I am a bit concerned as I haven't heard from my partner in quite a while. We should be having some check ins or something!
I'm a bit intimidated by the amount of stuff in your teaser Berrymouse!! I don't have that much for my partner yet!

Wow! what a chatty bunch you have been! I am fine with a new ship date, just more time for shopping and artsy goodies (even though I have nearly tripled my budget lol)!Oh my goodness :shocked:
I really don't know, how much money I have spent for this swap, but I'm sure its twice the budget
Wow! what a chatty bunch you have been! I am fine with a new ship date, just more time for shopping and artsy goodies (even though I have nearly tripled my budget lol)!>.> I have definitely more than tripled the budget
You guys are awesome!!! :lovey:
If you have any problems and I can't answer your PM right in time please feel free to ask Ringlets or Partypony for help, they are awesome!
The new shipping deadline is April 23rd!!!
Budget? What budget?! Lol :lmao:

I can't be far behind you! That's just on ponies too, not counting the customs or anything else because I've done all those myself.
This is my swap (well, maybe one other smaller one!) for the year so better make it count. ;)
OK the Army Swap 2013 will have two levels: $100 and $200 :lol:

What I want to know, is whether during the time that we've been spending loads of $$$ on our partners, have people been buying ponies for themselves too?
I've bought a few, mostly baits and G3s to take advantage of combined shipping. :)
Oh my goodness, I am a poor student! I hope my partner will still enjoy their modest box. I have a surprise I am hoping to get done though! Glad I have more time, I can work on it after the deadline crunch beginning of April *whew!*

Going overboard with my partners box doesn't mean I ecpect amy partner to do the same. I am in the $50 level and expect a box worth $50. Everything else wouldn't make sense :)
Nobody who sticks with the budget should feel bad, NOBODY! :hug:

Just a sunfading one that I posted a few pages back.
No where near ready to wrap etc yet - haven't even been looking for paper! What I will say is this though:
Green and red. ;)
Yeah, have wrapped the things for my partner, so here we are...

The pink ones are army ponies(still waiting for one in the mail and one is lying beside me, I need her for the customs/symbols)
The blue ones are customs(still working on 2 more)
the green ones are merchandise and other crafty things.
So I just need to finish the two customs and waiting for the las pony in the mail...and I have to find any candy for my partner(and a bigger box, because the big green one doesn't fit into the one I'm using)
nooo don't wanna ship I'm nowhere close to done *cries*

Would you like artwork of your army ponies as extras?
Would you like artwork of your army flowers as extras?
After much struggling today, frustration, lots of tangled thread, and a trip to buy more duct tape, I think I have figured out how to execute my Crafty Thing, finally.
someone needs to kick my bum into gear to finish my last project. Work has been really getting me down in a funk, but I need to snap out of it and not let my partner down!

Phew so after a 12 hr stint my sekrit project is finally complete :cheer: I have literally spent about 40hrs in total on it and I'm pleased to pieces with it!!!

Yup! Cookies! :dribble: But not just any cookies, Girl Scout cookies!!!! Have you ever had them?
*wonders if this really is Berrys last one* :P you have sooo many gifts for your partner!!
Question!
A few of my partner's ponies have marks that I'm sunfading, however the weather hasn't been great here for the last week so I'm not sure they'll be faded in time. One is example is pink blusher on a yellow pony - it is fading slowly but could be seen on display. Does my partner still want me to send them or would they rather I kept the ponies out of the box?

I will be working right up to the shipping deadline, I'm sure!

That makes me want to ship earlier as planned. :frolic:
Will drive to my post box in a few to check if the extras are in there *crossing fingers*
how many partners do you have twilight?
LOL
I should really start wrapping my things up too... might approach it the weekend...
xx
just curious, but when we ship, who do we send the shipping info to? spark still?
Would people mind getting a package later with crafty project inside?

I alllmost finished wrapping today.. but I accidentally bought something else for my partner , so I am waiting for it to arrive before I can really finish :relaxed: . It should be here before the shipping date (it better be here before the shipping date! :yikes: )
...brain not.. work.. think... not... good... *falls over dead*
In all seriousness, I am in the middle of my busiest time at work, my busiest time at school, and my stress level is somewhere hovering around the ozone layer right now. Also my internet is not working at home and I can't even get it looked at until the weekend. So I'm just trying not to fall apart right now.
I hopefully should be able to ship on monday if I can get away from the office to get to the post office
Never mind! I'll wrap my own pretty bling bling ponies! Bad Ringlets! :P
.....
And to think, you made fun of me for still shopping! :water:

And to think, you made fun of me for still shopping! :water:

and on the subject of shopping *looks innocent* I didnt mean to buy anything. it was an accident. no wait! the pony made me buy her! yeah.. thats it! :accomplished: *tries to sound convincing* she made me buy her I had no control over it whatsoever :angel:
:lmao: and :hug: loves ya back Clones!
right.. I have something to say thats
:IMPORTANT:
Spark still has no internet at the moment, so until she comes back, Partypony and myself will be looking after the Army swap.
When you ship your parcel, PM me or Partypony to let us know that you have shipped your partner's ponies. This is a must. Please also let me or Partypony know that you have your shipping receipt and which shipping method you chose, if you have tracking etc .
......
Hopefully Spark will be back soon, but with the shipping deadline fast approaching we need to make sure everthing goes well for the rest of the swap ;)
Thankies everyone :hug: :lovey: :hug:

my box is big, so big I'm going to have to ship it on Tuesday, 1 day late, since that's payday...I *knew* I shouldn't have got the last couple of things, lol!
Awesome! thankies hun! :hug: :bigups: I dont has powers in the Corral.
*goes to check incase I need to tell you some more names * :relaxed:
*fans Clones and hands her a paper baggie * :P LOL I do NOT wanna even think about how much my box is gonna cost to ship either at this point. I can put off facing that for a few more days (while I work out how to fit all this stuff in a box :lookround: :lol: )
Party, there are a few more to add to your list :relaxed:
Sorry that I haven't been here the last few weeks - work is awful at the moment! :/
I will do the wrapping this weekend and will ship on Monday. I'm sorry that this is the last day of the shipping deadline, but I'm still waiting on an extra for my partner and I really hope it will show up today or tomorrow!
So my good news is I finished my last project and wrapped the last few things so here is my teaser pic....The wrapping paper is awsome.

My bad news is I just worked out the cheapest way to post my Box, and its a hell of a lot higher then I thought it would be, and If I split the stuff into two boxes I'll be looking at even more $$$. I'm going to check on Monday if I can send my Box on my works DHL account if it's any cheaper.
Still no news from my partner *worries*
Yeah but the tracking showed as delivered a few days ago!

All I can say if its a PO Box the person might not yet check their mail OR simple they haven't had a chance to pick it up at the Post Office.... I know most carriers (unless you state other wise) will not leave package BUT place yellow slip to tell the customer come in to the Post Office. I wouldn't panic yet....
anyone want to chip in for the "help Nod afford her postage" fund? XD I transferred somem money from my paypal yesterday to help to cover the costs... let's hope it gets there! My package is too heavy for international first class, so I have no choice but priority mail. I was planning to send it priority anyway, but yeeeeeaaahh, this will be interesting XD
Clones!!! you were totally not being truthful before!! :throw: you ARE good at wrapping! lovin' that paper!! :heart:
Have checked my package' tracking number, unfortunately there is no way to check it online :what:
I have to call a phone number and have to pay for that to check, where my package is...
I've posted :) No tracking I just could not afford the $157 for it :stressed:... couldn't even really afford normal postage. I've been banned from future swaps I'm afraid :cloud: Hubbie says we can't afford to send more on Postage the the box's content did.
Who did I need to send a copy of the receipt too??

Strange!? Did ya ship with DHL or Hermes? =)
Think it's stupid to pay for the number just to check where it is? :blink:

Have sent it with dhl. The receipt from post office say check this website for status...sorry, we don't have any informations. So I have checked up dhl, they said, go to this site...it was the same on the receipt. Okay, checked it again and they said, package is on the way.
So what was the problem, first time I have checked the tracking number???
Any new brags yet?
@ Sternenstaub: I have sent a package the same way last summer, there was no change to get the informations online and the man at post office told me, that the only way to show the status is to call up the hotline...Yeah and you've to pay to call the hotline...what a pitty!!
I shipped! Weeee!!!!! :)
(PP - I updated that I shipped for you in the first post ;) I know naughty mod but I am so excited for my partner to get the box! ;) )
OH MY........... :shocked: :blink: :shocked: :dribble: :dribble: RINGLETS YOU WIN AT WRAPPING...AND SWAPS... AND THE INTERNET!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :lmao:

Thats great news Miss Tuneful :hug: I'm really happy that everything is ok now :heart:
My box was too heavy to be sent first class :shocked: was over 2 kilograms. It should take 3 to 5 days to reach my partner :cheer:This was how mine was too - my first package to be too heavy for first class! Hard on the wallet, but great to know that my partner will get their box faster :)
Just wanted to post that I've been keeping in contact with partypony about my package! Mine won't be able to go out in the mail until this Saturday due to my work schedule.
Yay I have my box and Buffy has hers and we are both in pony heaven! My work here is done (until round 3 next year!)Right, I'm in ponyhaven...so much ponies for me! Thanks again for the wonderful box! :hug:
*sits back and waits for more brags*
I'm so jealous of all you people with your fabulous wrapping skills!! Everyone's teasers look great. :D Now I'm going to go back to stalking the mailman impatiently.....

I wonder if we can just keep spamming this thread anyways until next time.. so we dont has too much withdrawals? :flirty: :silly:
I'm totally in for the next army swap too!!!
How long until the next one!!? :cry:
*If we start now we could do a Christmas army swap!!? ;) *
*grins* we could do one with sign ups in June, partners by July 1st and ship by Halloween? It'd be far enough away from Christmas and 4 months to shop!Sounds great :-)

not mine yet! :(
not mine yet! :(
:hug: Hopefully soon!
How would everyone feel about this~ sign ups in the beginning of July with partners assigned by the middle of July, shipping by the middle of November. That would allow four months for shopping and sekrit projects. I may even be able to host it myself if that is okay with everyone.

Alexia and Lunar, we are contacting your partners to see if there is any news of those parcels :hug: its about time those swapboxes arrived
DS I cant wait to see your brag!!! *goes to check it out * :frolic:
Post Merge: May 15, 2012, 07:17:10 PM
ETA: Alexia your partner has received her box safely :cheer: She will be posting pics ASAP :)
Lol this is driving me nuts, I had a package today but it wasn't my swap box. I even made her go look and see if maybe they missed putting a note in my box, but nope, she said there wasn't any others for me.
I wouldn't worry so much if my PO were better about the notices, but I'm so scared they won't put a note in my box and it'll get sent back!
Lunar I am sorry your box hasn't arrived yet!! I am wondering if you should check at the depot just incase they tried to deliver but didnt leave a card or something?Sorry, haven't think of this...
Lets hope it comes today!!! :hug:
Buffy some people couldn't send their parcels tracked because of the extremely high cost :/
nope, no box today. :( might be time to check the customs number and see if we can track it?Think this is a good idea and hope, your partner has sent the box with insurance...
I hope the last box will show up soon!
If not we should think about a replacement box!!
I would offer to organise that if needed...
It's going to take a little time, but it's coming together! (and it's going to be freakin' spectacular!) ;)
