Title: Dutch Diary pony price?
Post by: Kagri on July 05, 2016, 01:10:17 PM
Hello dear Arena members!

I haven't been online for AGES because my life's been busy and I didn't have time for ponies anymore. Now, I was cleaning my home and found a bunch of G1s laying around I *meant* to clean and sell, but I just never did so they kept laying around doing nothing... :P I am wondering, how much is Dutch Diary Pony worth these days? I have two of them. The ponies aren't clean and I have bought them on a flea market, so they obviosly have issues, most of which probably could be restored. But I just don't have time for that, so I'd like to sell them as is. Here's a picture:

As you can see, I also have Heart and Love Ponies, and Italian Windy, Peachy and Lemondrop (maybe a dwarf? I dunno...) and a regular Lemondrop. I'd like to sell the whole lot together, because these are the only G1 ponies that I have laying around, and I really don't need a jackpot for them, I'd just like to know what a reasonable price would be.

Thanks a lot for your help!  ;)

I have seen the advertisement you posted on Marktplaats. My suggestion is to atleast take one of the Diary Ponies out and make a seperate listing for that one because it's a highly wanted Pony and if you have Ebay prices in mind then it's near impossible for most "regular" people to bid a lot like that. Or just seperate them all and ask a fair price.

I was going to say similar to Pierlala if you could do more pics of at least one diary as different collectors manage issues (marks, haircuts, mold, cancer, etc) differently

I was going to say at least $50 in value and PKW gives a fair ballpark and if there were more pics and you did an auction for best/ highest I am sure you will be able to rehome as I agree that dutchie's a wanted MLP

all the best!

Hello!

Thank you for your suggestion. :) I actually didn't expect them to be worth such a lot, and all of a sudden I got a lot of interest in this lot, so I was wondering hmm, how much are they really worth?? :P It's kinda difficult to seaparate them, because they all have different issues (one has some faint spot and another one tailrust, I think).

The last Diary Pony I saw on Ebay was sold for 136 euro and the latest Love Letter Pony was sold for 76 euro. Both on Ebay. But like I said. If you're going to ask for Ebay prices to sell them, then I think it's better to put them on Ebay. Putting them on a website like Marktplaats will never get you as many "customers" as on Ebay. Simple because it was a Pony that was only released in the NL so many collectors in the US etc are willing to pay more.

But I would charge a fair price for them, I admit that two of them are my grail and I'm not just saying it because of that. But atleast seperate them and describe their flaws as detailed as possible.

Also, the Pink Pony with the red heart symbol doesn't go as fast as the other two I mentioned above. There are several on Ebay for a while now that still haven't been sold. I think they are more common.

Edit: Typos and mistakes!

You've been given some good advice and suggestions by MCM and Perilala.

You would do better to sell them individually, even with their small flaws :)

Thank you all! :D I just really didn't expect such an interest, lol. :P The thing with eBay is that I will then HAVE to clean them all and describe their each and every flaw and I just really don't want to do that, lol. :P So I just better sell them like this, without me having to spend extra time on them, not for an eBay price, but just for some reasonable price. :P
