Post by: The_Loner on July 10, 2012, 03:14:58 AM: They are not too hard to come by where I live. I have a few among my sale ponies but only one of them is ready for sale at this moment (http://www.theponypound.ponydalen.dk/Ponyer/CutiePony/Mintfarve-lyserod-lilla1.html (http://www.theponypound.ponydalen.dk/Ponyer/CutiePony/Mintfarve-lyserod-lilla1.html)). I'm taking a summer holiday break from selling at the moment though, but if you are interested in her I'd love to put her on hold for you :)

Post by: Moonracer on July 10, 2012, 03:21:59 AM: I've seen these before. :) And my sister even had one at some point (it was a white unicorn with a golden necklace/collar).

From my personal experience, these aren't really that hard to find. I've seen the pop out in lots quite a few times, on auctions and ads here in Poland. Heck, I even got one recently in a lot that I won. :)

So my advice is to just keep looking. :)

What does the one you are looking for look like? I've actually got one at home. It's light turquoise colored with a golden necklace and has dark blue flower like symbols on her butt.

Post by: Loona on July 10, 2012, 04:08:35 AM: I have one like this who came in a lot. she's purple with purple hair. she's quite baity though (body damage due to melted plastic imo, slight body-head mismatch, missing some tail plugs, "necklace" is there but broken, cutie marks bleeding and fading, eyes blurry and so on) :(
if you're interested I can take a pic, and I would be happy to give her to you for free if you pay for the postal costs, but I'm afraid overseas postal costs aren't cheap :/ if you'd like me to, I can look up a price.

edit: I just found out mine might be a fakie fakie :blink: she doesn't have any text or anything under her hooves.

Post by: HavACrumpet452 on July 10, 2012, 04:15:25 AM: They aren't rare, but fakies are hard to track down because of the nature of them. Not many people who are selling a bunch of toy ponies have any clue which is a Chap Mei fakie so you aren't likely to get more than one or two results if you search for them online. You'd just have to stumble across one in a group of toy ponies for sale.

Post by: lovesbabysquirmy on July 10, 2012, 08:37:14 AM: I have two! But they are not the purple one you're looking for, they're peach colored. :)

Keep an eye out in all lots of ponies for that special fakie. :)

Post by: Goldilocks on July 10, 2012, 09:15:39 AM: There were several different Chap Mei fakies in Ebay this morning when I searched it with just "My Little Pony" and most weren't expensive either :)

Post by: Fortress on July 10, 2012, 11:30:46 AM: Yay, I'm glad to hear you've found it! :D I've checked mine, but it hasn't got Chap Mei under its feet, so I guess mine's a fakie of a fakie. XD Not what you're looking for, but I'm really happy that you've found it. Childhood items are always extra special, aren't they? ^^

Great you found the one you were looking for! :) I will put the one I have for sale on hold for you :) I have checked my spreadsheet for the others I have and I have 2 more - one that is the same as the one for sale but without acc. and not as good condition; the other one is a light yellow one with pink hair and a pink clover. I think she's in ok condition but I will have to prepare her for sale before I know for sure, but I can put her on hold for you as well if you want?
