Trader & Shipping Support / import tax and duty question
« on: July 09, 2014, 12:06:43 AM »
Hello
 Not sure if this is the correct place to ask this?

I've purchased a lot of ponies worth $60 (£36) in total including the shipping and was wondering if anyone knows roughly how much I will have to pay in import duty and tax for it to enter the uk?
I've purchased items from the USA on numerous occasions but I've never had to pay either tax or duty before as they've been relatively inexpensive item under the £15 limit or marked as gifts.
I just want to be prepared for when the postman comes as I'm very excited about my parcel arriving.
Thank you :)

Pony Corral / Please can someone id and pc some g3
« on: June 01, 2014, 08:29:02 AM »
Hello
I've not been on here in a while as I've not purchased any ponies lately.
I did however find these 4 ponies today at a boot fair for 20p each but as I'm really a G1 collector I am not familiar with their names they are in need of a good clean and the pink pony does have a small blue pen mark on her bottom lip.
Thank you
Ps if anyone wants them I'd be willing to trade or sell.

Customs / re hairing a glow and show bright glow
« on: March 02, 2014, 05:13:11 AM »
Hello
Is it possible to re hair her with her original colours? I've seen many alternative re hairs but nine with her original pink/purple hair.
How much does it usually cost to re hair her mane and tail...mine seems to be rather thin and frazzled  :shocked:
Thank you

Pony Corral / How to remove yellowing on a pale aqua pony
« on: February 14, 2014, 07:50:29 AM »
Hello
I have de flocked a ss angel that was full of rust. She has turned out great apart from some slight yellowing from her dirty flocking. The staining is not on the inside as I've cleaned all the rust out and her insides are a brighter aqua green. It's mainly on her ds hind leg.
What method is best to remove the yellowing and can it be sunfaded out?
Thank you :)

Pony Corral / Can I sunfade a baby gusty?
« on: February 09, 2014, 10:11:31 AM »
Okay...I've acquired a baby gusty courtesy of nappercasper today so I'm a very happy lady  :frolic:
She was rather yellow and was full of rust which made her look so much worse, well I've cleaned out all the rust and she looks so much whiter but she's still a bit off colour  :cloud:
 I am wondering if she is safe to sunfade as I've had success with my baby glory :) or if there's another way to make her snowy white again?

Trader & Shipping Support / global shipping programme? ?
« on: February 02, 2014, 10:09:55 AM »
I purchased a $13 pony and shipping to the uk was priority mail at a mega expensive $20.85!!! ($33.85)
Now I'd messaged the seller asking for 1st class airmail post, who then said they use this programme ...I never have before so I'm not familiar with the process at all. They said it covers import charges ( I've never had those either) they said they would ship 1st class so I bid and won....what they actually meant was they would ship to the eBay postal centre 1st class and refunded me $2
My problem is paypal only sent just over $18 total to the seller on my paypal account...is this normal?
I usually use 1st class airmail at around $10-12 shipping I'm now thinking this may of been an expensive mistake...I hope the pony is worth it :(
I know it was my mistake and im not blaming the seller think it was a case of no one knowing what to do.

Can someone please explain this method to me better as the seller didn't really know themselves as they were new to international postage.

MLP Nirvana / Princess Serena and german variant princesses
« on: January 28, 2014, 01:47:56 AM »
 Hello I purchased what I believed to be a normal uk release princess Serena (aquamarine) with unfaded hair to be told yesterday over tea with nappercasper that she's a german release! OK now I'm shocked lol 
The pat pending mark has been rubbed off and her hair is bright pink.
Looking at my other princesses I've noticed that two others have this mark removed as well (tiffany and royal blue) ...However they do not look like the german releases I've seen more like normal uk versions. 
Can someone shed light on this for me, as I'm now rather confused  :what: :freak:
