Title: Vintage Toy Store Brag
Post by: Icicle on November 01, 2016, 06:17:41 PM
To start, up until last week I haven't bought a single pony in like. Three years or so. Buuuut, in trying to find somewhere to sell some stuff and make some cash we were directed to a new vintage game/toy store that opened up.

There were actually some G1s (mostly G3/G4s otherwise) and I instantly was hooked again.. went back like two days later and I grabbed one with trade credit (so I got her for $3 bucks). Then a few more days later got another with credit, again (Though she basically came out free). The fact I was able to find G1s in the wild for me was a brag enough, lol.

please excuse my shoddy crochet job on my 2DS case, yikes I just noticed that was the side i used

Locket was first and Lily was second! I was honestly, super surprised that they were just a little dirty and frizzy (Locket's tail needs another conditioning..). I was just so floored and happy that I had to share! At least I know somewhere I can be looking out in the future because these dang plastic horses are addicting.

Congratulations! Sounds like a great deal. I haven't ever come across a Locket in the wild.

Nice G1 finds. They both look like they are in really nice condition.  Keep an eye on the store for more ponies in the future so you get first dibs!   :) :)

Very nice! I found my Locket in the wild, too, but at an antique shop. It's cool you found a store you can sell/trade at that carries ponies!

They are! The surface cleaning did wonders and Locket just needs another day at the hair salon! And I will be there a lot because the place offers a lot for my husband and myself! And I can always use it as a place to look out for other members  :lovey:
