Title: hi to all
Post by: cashew on May 04, 2017, 10:17:08 AM
Hi all
I am new to MLP world. Found a large collection of G1 to G3 ponies at a thrift shop and bought them all. To be honest my intention is to flip them.  However, the more I've looked at them and tried to identify them, I've grown rather fond of them, and may keep a few as collectibles. I'm too old to have played with ponies as a child, so they are new to me.
I live in Colorado, USA, am 57 years old, disabled, and make money for charities by buying stuff at thrift shops and then reselling. I have raised hundreds of dollars for charity:water and other charities this way.
So, I am not your typical member, but I hope you will welcome me to your site.

Hello and welcome! I would love to see your flippables! You're in the right place for ID and price checks.

I love the thrill of thrift hunting as well as sprucing things up for resale. You'll fit in perfectly here. I like your Screename too! :)

Hi Cashew!

I'm pretty new here too, and honestly probably not the typical collector either, so I look forward to seeing you post more! I hope you have fun and I've love to see what you've collected so far.

Yay a member older than me, cool.  I didn't play with them as a kid, either....doesn't stop me from being obsessed with them now though.

those ponies, they are addictive aren't they?  Be careful!  Soon you'll be buying them for yourself.

Plenty to learn around here about fixing them up etc.  Feel free to hang out and make some new pony friends.

Hope you have a great time here!
