Title: PC on interesting piece of G1 merch - TAKING OFFERS NOW!
Post by: hokuspokus on August 06, 2013, 05:10:59 AM
UPDATE August 22,

Schitterboogje is now taking offers for the MLP merch toy here: http://mlparena.com/index.php/topic,339401.new.html#new
PM her with your questions and/or offer. :)

--------------------------------------------------------------


A PC on this piece of merch, i don't even know what it is called. We know it is MLP because we saw the original box (pic below)
The picture of the box is NOT mine, i found it on google. The pictures of the horse itself are mine & Schitterboogje.

Any help with PC? Is this wanted? We wanna sell.

Eyes and symbols are stickers. Seems the previous owner switched the eyes.

I've seen it a couple of times (even left one behind at a flea market once  :yikes:)

I believe they are called Ride-Ons? No idea on price - it would probably be hard to sell due to the shipping

Omg!! I love it!

If it wasn't for the fact that my husband would kill me and shipping would be astronomical, I would so make you an offer.

Wow, it's adorable!! I had never seen one of these before, very cool! But yeah, shipping is going to hinder you alot on trying to sell it, unfortunately. :/

I thought of that too, bummer! It is too big for us to display, so it would probably be sweet to make someone else happy with it.
Shipping in Holland is always expensive, if it stays under 2kilogrammes it will be the same costs as sending a G1 adult, so that wouldn't be bad. Up to 2kg the shipping here does not increase :)

Anyone else suggestions for PC? I only saw one on Ebay and it was really expensive. I don't think that was realistic.

I agree it will be sought after but shipping it is going to be a nightmare and perhaps prohibitively expensive for many.

As Sebby says it does not come up for sale too often, I think I have seen it once, maybe twice. Both times MIB and both times with BINs around the $250 mark, I dont remember either ever selling.

I think thats too high; I think if shipping was not potentially high it could well be a $60 item. But its whether a shipping cost perhaps double the price of the item is going to stop people bidding?

I would work out shipping first and then post it for auction with a reserve you are comfortable with - that is probably the best way you are going to get an accurate price. Heck you could even find someone in NL who would perhaps collect it from you. If I still lived there I probably would drive to collect it, assuming I did not almost squooshed by a tram *has scary flashback*

Cat you can buy it for me and keep it at your house for when I come and visit!!! We can ride it around Scotland!!

Did you see that Hokus???  I am trying to make a sale for you!!!

Post by: hathorcat on August 06, 2013, 03:48:18 PM
Done!

I am a 2 hour drive and a 12 hour ferry ride away from it. I shall collect it, bring it home and then when we go on our great Scottish tour we can travel around Scotland...kind of Thelma & Louise without the criminal background and with a much smaller transportation method.

I ll need to get a trailer of some kind hooked up...cause we will need something for our suitcases.

Thank you all for helping us out ! 

We're going to see how much the weight of this pony walker is (because of shipping costs) and then we will take offers for it  :biggrin:

I would be interested in making a low offer for it (with the knowledge the shipping is going to be bone-chilling haha!)
Title: Re: PC on interesting piece of G1 merch - info welcome too!
Post by: partypony566 on August 09, 2013, 09:43:08 PM

I am absolutely going to make an offer as soon as you're ready to start taking them. 

It's too bad about the eyes being switched.  I don't mind the broken ear as much, but the eyes are a bit distracting lol

Not distracting enough for me to not SERIOUSLY want this though.   ;)

Yea too bad the eyes are switched, but on the other hand it's really OOAK! :lmao:

I have two scales but both are not really qualified to weigh the EXACT weight :( Pff, sorry for keeping anyone who's interested waiting, it's only a shippingcost issue now. I think you guys need to know the exact weight & exact costs before bidding, as they are quite high, out of europe. Members within Europe pay much less on shipping.

I think we would be happy to help pay for shipping (= we can pay a part of the amount to help out). Will be talking to SB later today as i need her approval for this :)

We charge only the real shippingcosts from POSTNL and no extra for any packing matherial!
Check the postNL site here: http://www.postnl.nl/tarieven/pakketten/ (you will probably need translation to check the signed for shipping section). We're reluctant to send it without any proove of arrival, due to experiences from the past.

Wow! That shipping is great - I am sure you are going to have tonnes of interest :)

Post by: MLPforever on August 17, 2013, 10:45:43 AM
 hokuspokus, would you mind checking how much shipping with signed deliver would be to the U.S., area code 46208?  I couldn't make heads or tails of the postage site you linked to...I'm horrible at navigating non-U.S. sites, even with the translate button. :blush:

Just want to make sure I know the correct shipping so that I can offer as much as I'm able.  (I really want this thing!  :lol: )
