I love German babies and right now I am only missing 3, Baby Buttons, Baby Gusty, and Baby Hopscotch. Tonight I came across this auction and could not help myself. She looks to be in great condition! I have never paid more than $12 for a German Baby so this was a huge purchase for me. Is $32 a good price for her? I am assuming the last 3 I want are going to be quite expensive. http://www.ebay.com/itm/271203484595?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1497.l2649There's a link to the auction so you ladies can see her condition. The only bit of description I got was that she doesn't have a hair cut. I'm crossing my fingers I didn't buy a bait pony from a description I couldn't read well >.>

I'm expecting my 3rd daughter (SURPRISE  !) August 25th on my SO's 30th birthday . We're a blended family so together this makes child #4. I have 2 daughters and he has 1 son, this is his first little girl and our first together! So exciting! I can't wait to show SO the world of ponies, princesses, barbies, and PINK! (I'm a total girly girl) Anyone else expecting?

I brought my daughters to the flea market today since it was gorgeous outside and after a long winter it's nice to enjoy the fresh air. I have been going to flea markets for years and I NEVER find vintage ponies. Well, today was my lucky day. In a bag of these... visitors can't see pics , please register or loginI found this little guy hanging out... visitors can't see pics , please register or loginI paid $10 for the bag which I think was a pretty good deal. I don't know anything about those fairy tail birds but I think $1.75ish each was a good deal considering they have stands. It was nice finding ponies today, I can't wait to go back

As some of you know I recently had my mail stolen and quite a few pony packages taken. One of the ponies I lost was a beautiful Moondancer whom I paid an arm and a leg for because I had been holding out for a white one for a very long time. Moonie had been one of my birthday presents and I was devastated that she was gone. However, ClosetAvalanche sent me a PM saying she had an extra Moonie who was in lovely shape and that she'd send her too me. Yesterday she came and my goodness she is so gorgeous! I was having an awful day and it just totally cheered me up. Thank you so much ClosetAvalanche  Anyway here are some pics of my new beautiful Moondancer with her babies. visitors can't see pics , please register or loginvisitors can't see pics , please register or loginvisitors can't see pics , please register or loginGosh she's beautiful!

This is a long time over due but I was waiting for another really important pony to show up so she could be in my brag. Unfortunately, she was stolen  , but I still got some other great ponies to add to my collection. visitors can't see pics , please register or loginMimic! I won her for $40 on eBay earlier this month. At first I thought I got a really good deal but when she came I found a lot of flaws on her that would severely impact her value. On her leg and DS symbol there is a pretty big scratch where the plastic was literally scraped off and she has highlighter on her mouth, tip of her horn, and the back of her legs. All in all I think I got my money's worth and I am very happy with her despite her flaws. visitors can't see pics , please register or loginI have been waiting for this boy for soooo long! Unfortunately, he too had marks on him that were not described by the seller. *sigh* At least I finally have him though so that makes me happy. visitors can't see pics , please register or loginFinally after disappointment, after disappointment, I finally got a pony that truly thrills me! She is a grail and I thought I'd never be lucky enough to get her for a reasonable price. Blueberry Baskets! She is so beautiful!!! Her and Magic Hat (who is also adorable) were only $10. I lucked out and saw her with a BIN.

I'm still in shock that I was able to nab this pony! I've sold two over the 16 years I've been collecting and I was pretty sure I would NEVER get this lovely green parrot unicorn again. http://www.ebay.com/itm/120927462675?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1497.l2649#ht_500wt_1416. . . . . . . . . OMG I JUST GOT MIMIC FOR $40. I did take note that the seller has no feedback but for $40 and eBay's buyer protection I am willing to take the risk. Even with a scratched cutie mark, the frizzy hair I see in the photo, and the dirt around her hooves I see... $40 is still a REALLY good deal. I am so excited right now! I just hope this seller comes through

I'm going through my collection and restoring it and I've noticed a lot of ponies have pindot. I know it's fairly easy to get rid of but still it's really annoying to discover it all over some of my ponies  Yuck! I have no idea how it even got on them..

I'm just wondering if I'm being paranoid but I'm noticing a lot of really really white vintage ponies on eBay (like Surprise, Glory, Moondancer) and having come across my fair share of these ponies I'm finding it hard to believe all of them are so white. Is the camera making them appear more white? I'm trying really hard to get my hands on pristine ponies but I fear that a lot of these nice looking ones are simply a non-purposeful trick of the camera. Any confirmation on this fear or am I just being irrationally paranoid

I'm looking for a few G1's in near mint condition as most of these are upgrades! I'm also willing to trade but I need to get my trade list together. I should be doing that Monday or so. Anyway! On to the ponies Baby Surprise/Baby Moondancer/Baby Glory: I'm looking for these three ponies in great condition! The most important thing for me is that they are white! These are upgrades from ponies I already have and the ones I do have are quite dingy looking. **I'm still looking for these girls in MINT CONDITION.Glory/Moondancer/Honeycomb/Starshine/Confetti: I'm looking for these gals in excellent condition. They don't need to be a pristine white but I would like them to be at least a solid off white if they aren't. I'd like symbols glittery and no signs of cancer, mold, or age spots. **Priority!**Baby SquirmyStarflowerPinwheel Baby WigglesNSS ButtonsBaby ApplejackUK Baby Lemondrop

Hi everyone! I'm moving in a week and I'm trying to figure out the best way to store my ponies. I'll be living in a massive house but will only be renting a room so storing is my only option I was thinking of buying some of those big plastic covered boxes and putting my ponies in ziplock bags to protect them. Any advice? Also, I just bought a new camera so I think while I pack them I'd like to catalog them so I know what I have. I plan on continuing collecting now that my situation has changed and I'm not completely broke and I still have a few ponies I'd like to sell. The issue with this is getting the motivation to actually do it lol. I have somewhere between 100 - 200 ponies so it's going to take a bit of time!

Hello! Some of you may remember me, some of you may not. I've been a member of the MLP community off and on since 1999. I started out with the username of sweetberrypony but after becoming a mommy in 2004 I changed my name to what it is today.
For the last few years I've been living the married life. I bought house, had another little girl (Katy, she has autism), got the dog, went back to college and worked full time. Life was good. About a year or so ago I disappeared from the pony community again. Life happened. I got into a car accident and became unable to work, marriage fell apart, and eventually my soon to be ex-husband kept the kids and tossed me out.
Things are settling down now. I'm trying to go through my collection so I can sell and get some cash to get back on my feet. I do want to continue collecting because I really enjoy it but right now space and money is just not there. It is good to be back though, I have a lot of good memories involving this place and made some great friends. It's good to be back <3
