Trader & Shipping Support / USPS claim advise
« on: June 12, 2014, 09:09:37 PM »
I got a box full of g1 porcelains from a craigslist ad after taking some time and a bit extra $ to convince the seller to ship them to me. As soon as I picked up the box I knew something was broken. Sadly, it was the coolest one, Frolic in the Sky. The box had insurance on it, probably up to $100, I have to get the insurance info from the seller. I've never filed a claim with USPS over damaged goods and am not sure how to do it when I had a box full of stuff and paid well below what I'd have to pay on ebay for each item. The rest of the porcelains were in  original boxes with bubble wrap around them and one other had part of a bubble wrap envelope around it and foam. Frolic had some paper and a couple plastic bags around it, it is the only one that was damaged.

Since this is an item without a fixed price would I have to provide proof of what it's worth to the post office if I can file a claim? Can  I even file a claim for 1 item out of a boxfull of items?  I'll probably  go talk to someone at the post office about this too, but I won't be able to get there until next Saturday, so I thought I'd see about opinions on this here.

Customs / Suggestions for Skyflier customs
« on: June 08, 2014, 08:40:59 PM »
Skyflier is my army pony of choice, and I'd kinda like to try making some custom /alt/ nirvana-esc/etc versions of her. But my creativity has been terribly dormant for years and the only thing I can think to do is "negative" color Skyflier.

Would anyone be willing to offer up some suggestions for me to maybe make later on?

Trader & Shipping Support / Craigslist favor in WI?
« on: June 05, 2014, 08:46:56 PM »
Soo, I found Pony porcelains ff I really want on CL yesterday, but the seller doesn't want to ship them and cant take paypal. She lives in Omro ,WI. Does anyone live nearby that would be willing to pick these up and mail them to me? I'd cover mailing costs of course

Customs / BB Skyflier & OC
« on: May 07, 2014, 10:59:22 PM »
I finally repainted a blind bag as Skyflier to add to my army. I used an Ameythst Star who just happens to have the right eye color  so I got to avoid totally redoing the eyes. She's the 2nd BB I've painted and  I had to make myself be patient with painting so she would look smoother. Heck of a lot easier to be patient with a blind bag than a FBR on a regular sized pony, oyvey.

Here she is with big sister Skyflier

And then with another painted BB, as one of my OC's Cool Beans. I was impatient with Beans and so his paint job is not very smooth.

Pony Brag Arena / Woohoo! Finally got Tex's hat
« on: April 09, 2014, 08:27:28 PM »
Won it in a lot with other ponies and accessories. I was so focused on his hat that I didn't even notice his bandana is there too til the auction was almost over. Boys with their hats are so cute and I've been so badly wanting Tex's hat but been so cheap about how much I'm willing to pay for it. I feel like I got a good deal

Price Check Archives / PC: Softies in various condition
« on: August 11, 2013, 03:29:15 PM »
I'm curious  of opinions of what you'd pay for any of these in person. I know some of them aren't generally worth much anyway...these less so due to condition issues. I'm taking them to a swap meet soon.

Blossom 1, probably in the best condition of the lot. one eye has a lil scratch but overall she is pretty clean and has good hair

Off Topic / San Diego Comic Con 2014
« on: July 21, 2013, 12:40:25 AM »
So,  I know this year's comic con is gonna be wrapping up soon, and I couldn't make it this year, but next year me and a group of friends are planning on going. It will be a first for all of us. I'm really excited about it and have started saving. But I am also worried about even getting a ticket for the thing. I'm under the impression that it sells out super fast and I'm afraid me or some of my friends won't  be able to get tickets before they sell out.

Can that has gone in recent years tell me how the ticket buying system works, or signing up for any particular alerts that will let me know the moment tickets go on sale? Maybe any general helpful info abut the con too. Ive never been to the SD convention center.

Also, is anyone else planning on going?

 I'm excited at the prospect of Peter Jackson and some of the Hobbit crew possibly being there next year  since they couldn't make it this year.

Pony Brag Arena / Private Swap & a few months worth of brag
« on: July 21, 2013, 12:12:48 AM »
I did a private swap with DashesnDots, swaps are so much fun. It's great to come home and find a box of pony surprises on your porch. It was a dang heavy box when I picked it up.

And this is why. Lookit all that candy! Full sized bags too!

She also sent me  beautiful little piece of Australian concrete opal and a tiny vile of rainbow colored rocks as well as some G4 stickers.

And the ponies!

Tinsel hair AJ, I'm so glad to get an AJ with her hat. I missed out on AJ when she came with a hat before. and look at those lovely babies! They are all in such wonderful condition /squee/

So many thanks to Dashesndots for taking me for a swap partner. :newpony:


Then, these are almost all of the ponies I've been going nuts buying on Ebay, from the Arena, dept stores and finding at thrift stores for the last couple of months.

to my great shock I found these at Toys R us today and my mum bought them as a bday present for me cuz my mom is awesome and still buys me ponies  :lol:

Today I went into Target to look for blind bags and lo and behold I found a little AJ plush after I was whining about never seeing the plushies of her the other day :blush: I got a couple of the comics that had Luna on them and one of the AJ mini specials at a comics store I've not been to for probably 10 years. Got a bag of G3's and McD's ponies for $2 at thrift store. Ebay & arena stuff: Skyflier, rainbow ponies, Coloring book, Lil pocket who still has her pig but alas not her coin but a good bargain @ 2.25 and a Skyflier porcelain for my army

Then, group shot of a few months worth of ponies

Ebay, thrifting, Arena and being lucky enough to have an old friend of my dad's do some out of state pony hunting for me.
Most exciting  things for me here were my mom finding several bags of ponies at a community rummage sale that used to belong to a childhood friend of my sister's and finding TWO G1 plushies in mint condition with their hang tags! Windy even has her original price sticker on her tag

Pony Corral / Why Applejack?! WHY?! /cry
« on: July 17, 2013, 11:31:43 PM »
Why are certain Applejack's so hard to find?  I've never seen a FS of her in person, I'll probably never see any of the official release plushies of her either. I want them but there is no way I can afford resale prices for her. I'm gonna go curl up in the corner and cry/whine about MLP crappy distribution  :bawl:

Pony Brag Arena / Castle Case Win
« on: July 09, 2013, 06:25:22 PM »
Holy crimeny! I had no idea that this case was so huge! It's freakin enormous in person!  I was also quite surprised I got it for the price I did since nearly every time I see it up on ebay it's listed around $50. I also forgot to keep an eye on it when the auction ended so I was shocked I didn't  get outbid.

Off Topic / Crystals, minerals, gems oh my!
« on: July 04, 2013, 05:09:21 PM »
I love seeing pictures of crystals and minerals and such. They are all so unique.  I have a small collection of mostly small specimens since I can't afford the amazing  larger pieces.

Show me what you've got!!

Pony Corral / Irrational pony desires
« on: July 03, 2013, 06:54:49 PM »
In the last week or two of cruising Ebay for ponies I find myself wanting duplicates of all the Uk ponies I currently have.  I have one army in the making, I really really don't need to buy more uk ponies and pay for overseas shipping. But everytime I see one up  I go ' ooOOOOoo" and hit watch and want to bid on it. Now it's leaking over to US ponies that I already have!
