Title: Who confesses to being a Pony Hoarder?
Post by: ponylady on March 28, 2012, 04:14:34 AM
I have been frantically searching for The G1 Adventure Game Board.  I mean to tell you I was on a major, major mission  :ninja:  as they rarely come up on ebay.
 
Well last night I was going through some stuff I had stashed in my Pony Room.  And low and behold I already have one!!!  Now how I forgot I did is beyond me??? So I took a picture so I will not forget I have it!

*Hand proudly in the air*....the signature pic below is a teeny teeny teeny itty bitty tiny handful of what I have to sort...I have some kind of obsessive disorder when it comes to combs - I simply need to have as many as possible...

I did this kind of search last weekend [managed to check out just one box] and discovered a disturbing number of items which I thought I was still looking for...

Love that board...with the reverse side its much cuter than the UK version isnt it?

Actually, I think it is the UK Version.  But I love it none the less :heart: !
*edit* to add just one area of accessories I have.

This is so funny... I used the term "hoarder" once in the old arena and got shot down by several members who didn't seem to see the humourous side of it.

I will however admit one thing: I AM A PONY HOARDER AND DAMN PROUD OF IT!

The more ponies the better!

I've bought please before that I didn't remember that I owned already. Honestly I think anyone who owns an army of a certian pony is definitely hoarder. Myself included because I will buy up any bluebelle I see! Lol

I think I may have been a G3  hoarder - as every time I'd find one at the thrift store - I'd bring her home. I'm def. a G1 fakie baby hoarder.

And, if I could get my hands on MO G1s - I'd hoard them too :D

I guess you could say I hoard original ribbons since I never want to sell them (and I sell almost everything I buy).  I also have an extreme love for G1 plain combs, but I try not to have too many!

PS Ponylady I want to rifle through those accessory bins so badly!!! :)

I've done that. With a number of pieces. I was after the red comb from the SHS ponies. Well, to my surprise I already had one! I had no idea.

Hoarder would be the word for that collection. Everything else I set limits. Ponies, no. Armies and extras are a-ok. :D

I do have hoarder tendencies... rather runs in the family. I however HATE living in stuff... I limit myself on things except ponies and I noticed I get attached to sets of ponies. I'm getting better about limiting myself somewhat. Downsized my collection to make room for more wanted ponies XD   I kinda have to start doing so cause I have no more display room!

:lmao:  That's great!  I am not really.  but only because I can't afford it.  XD  I didn't know what was in the garage, but that's because it was all in different boxes and stored all over the place due to space constraints  : P

Dang, do you want me to start saving my G4 combs for you? I can send you a bundle every time I get to like... 20 or so. They are useless to me.

I was a hoarder but I'm doing much better now.  :blush: If I can get my pony shelves all up and actually see what I own I will be out of the buying doubles, triples, quadruples loop!

Can't say I'm a hoarder... yet.  Although sometimes I feel like it since I don't usually have a lot of anything, especially something that just sits on a shelf once it's been cleaned up...

I think I have a tendency to hoard g1 accessories, too.  I don't have much of a problem selling off my extra ponies but the accessories - I become attached to them.  Then again, I only have one drawer full.  :)

I have to admit, I at first read this stuff and thought "that will NEVER happen to me".

Well...

I'm working on a custom, and I was concerned about getting a certain color of paint. As far as I could remember, I had never made a custom in that color before. But then, when I went to check my paint supply, it turned out that I DID have that color. -_- XD So I guess I hoard custom supplies.

I used to until I actually sold some stuff, now my collection is smaller, my head is clear and I know exactly what I have and haven't got :D

i tend to hoard, but i started collecting at a young age (3rd grade) and all the ponies i found then have a special place in my heart, well the G1s and 2s that i grew up with.  I got rid of over 100 g3s last summer.  I am praying to God now that i started actively collecting again that any pony i get now i will be able to sell if needed.  but i dunno how well that's going to work with the older ones.... ^__^

I am a winger hoarder.  I know this because I was offered an insanely awesome trade with another member here.  I would send her 2 of mine (and mind you I have like 5 of each) for 2 crazy amazing of hers.  I...couldn't do it....:(  So instead I'm just outright buying her ponies.  I think that qualifies me as either 1) completely insane or 2) extreme winger hoarder.

Pretty soon TLC will be coming to my house and filing a show about me:(  JK.

Oh right, I have a few winger combs if anyone wants them.  2 of them are Argie combs!!

That's too funny ponylady!!!  So glad to hear you finally have one (or had one this whole time!).  I know it was a major want for you :)

I do pretty well being organized and keeping updated lists. If I rebuy something I already have, it's usually not a big item, like an upgrade to a common pony or small accessory.  I have had the reverse happen though. I am SURE I bought a blue spanish disco ponywear outfit, but I can't find it now :(   Did I misplace it or was I just imagining things??

I think the whole hoarder issue depends on your definition of hoarding. I've always thought that meant you gather things you don't need for your goal and can't let go of it.  I have a ton of stuff, but it's all part of the collection puzzle. Whatever extra stuff I get gets taken to the Fair every year.   

However, I do have more ponies than I have space for them!   Some would consider that a hoarding trait, I'm sure!

Oh, shut the front door!!! :lmao: That is just tooooo funny!!!! While, I can't say that I've ever come across something that I was specifically looking to buy, I have come across things and thought "Where the heck did that come from?" Like the little book "Spike and the Magic Shoes" (which I still haven't read. What's up with that??!! :P ) I have no idea how it came to live in my pony room. XD


  I had a cousin send me a message on Facebook a couple of weeks back who said she wanted to buy some ponies off of me as "You sell them, right?"
I had to correct her with "No, I rarely sell; I mostly hoard." My Mom then went and "liked" my comment. :P

I know what you mean. I can't, for the life of me, remember where I got my Ponyville Butterscotch. I know I found my Ponyville Kimono in a box somewhere in the house, but Butterscotch is a bit of a mystery!
