So who's going to UK Ponycon this year?  Who is having a stall?  What do you hope to buy?  Who is sharing a room?!  I know its a while off yet but theres no harm in looking forward to this years festivities! x 

hi everyone


I'm sorry to say I am having a nightmare with a sale her at the arena ANIKO79 , however this has just taken another awful twist on ebay with the same person...


So here goes...


A fairly new member here asked me to put a hold on a pony for her and despite really needing the money I agreed to wait a month for her to make payment, in the meantime I passed up a few other sales on her.  I always trust my instincts and when the date she was meant to pay approached I just had a feeling she wasn't going to pay, so I sent her a PM and my fears were confirmed.  She made several excuses, I'm not sure whether these are true or not, I wasn't sure as  I noticed she had won a few ponies at  the arena in the meantime.  She did not confirm if she still wanted the pony or not and the date she was supposed to pay came and went.  I PMed again to ask if she could confirm if she wanted her or not and     she asked if she could pay half and send the other half later but did not say how long it would take for the 2nd payment.  So I haven't heard back from her about that yet.... BUT things just turned into a nightmare and I'm so upset now...


At the weekend I listed a load of stuff for sale on ebay including a few rare ponies and the one she put on hold. 
This morning I woke up to a message on ebay from a member with 2 feedback, asking how long I would wait for payment for one of the rare ponies, they were also from the same country as the arena member, I just knew it was the same person.  So I replied saying ebay usually require immediete payment for buy it now items and that I state in my auctions payment within 48 hours.  So I check my sales page and realize this member has BOUGHT the two expensive ponies I listed for sale!!! (including the one I put on hold for her) 


I couldn't believe it, I am so upset as now Ebay has slapped me with a massive fee for selling them not to mention the fees for re listing if she does not pay.  I really doubt they will pay as they couldn't even pay for the pony at the arena and the second pony on ebay was even more expensive than the one she wanted originally. 
I know this is going to be a long drawn out battle to get my money back.  Why oh why would someone do this? 


The very sad thing is that I really really need the money which is why I am selling some things and there were many other watchers on Ebay who may have paid for the ponies.  Also I have had to pass up on a very special pony that meant alot to me, that I was in the process of buying because of all the non paying bidders on ebay lately. I want to cry right now         



*UPDATE* the member is Aniko79

So I finally received a message on ebay from the person who did the BIN for the 2 ponies.  This person claims to be buying the ponies to cheer up her daughter who has recently lost her father.  She says she has transfered money to paypal which should clear in a few days...  I'm not sure what going on here... Is this the same person as at the arena pretending to be the mother?  This is most definitely the same person or someone buying on behalf of this person.  This could be a genuine situation or someone seriously playing games. 
Still no word from her at the arena, I asked her to confirm when she was going to send the payment..... although she has read this message.

I have also found out that another member is having trouble getting payment at the arena.  I will keep you all updated! x

*UPDATE 3 JUNE*
She has been in touch here at the arena and is offering to pay $10 of the $100 she owes and also claims not to be the member on ebay, i'm very suspicious of this for many reasons....
 
On ebay I have opened cases for both ponies, this ebay buyer lizziekovacs has messaged twice to say payment was on its way and it has not appeared.  She claims to be the mother of Aniko79 saying that she wanted to buy the ponies for her daughter who recently lost her father.  I will be relisting the items. 

I contacted ebay who told me that lizziekovacs has many unpaid item cases on her account and is being investigated.  Even if they paid now I will not sell to them now, just want an end to all these games : ( 

I would love to see everyones Takara fakies!


Does anyone know which colours are hardest to find and which are most common?


Look forward to seeing your pics


 

Hey everyone


I was wondering about G1 Windy, There is a version with a red streak and also with a pink streak in her mane and tail...

So why the difference? Is one version a later release or euro version?

The lovely Cherry arrived safe to the UK!  I was so worried about her after all the awful stories so was shocked when I saw she hadn't been opened at customs...


I fell in love with her at first sight and that hardly ever happens to me with ponies.  Cherries Jubilee was my most played with pony as a child and I am lucky to still have her, so I think this pony has a special place in my heart.  Her hair is the most unbelievably beautiful colour in real life and I'm so thrilled to have her in my collection x

So, I bought a nirvana from a member at the arena and was told there were no big flaws however
when I received her despite being a beauty, she has tail rust 


I have no problem cleaning rust, however her neck seam is so tight I don't want to attempt it...


Have been in contact with the seller, think that are hoping i will grow to love her anyway


Not sure what to do?

Hello everyone!


I am looking for a US shipping buddy to help me buy a pony from US Ebay, receive the parcel and then ship it on to me (thats if I win her of course!).  I was so sad to see the seller won't ship to the UK and I would love this pony so much!  I have lots of good feedback here as well as nearly 900 positive feedbacks on ebay.
Would anyone be willing to help?
