Pony Corral / Claire's has pony barrettes!

Okay, not really. But very close! :P I just saw these on the website, especially the ones at the bottom look very familiar:

Off Topic / Facepalm Thread!

Sometimes you find things on the internet that make you go ---> O_________O Some of these things are funny enough to share though. :P

Like this ad for a baby sling in coat form... Because it's completely normal to take your baby for a walk on a railroad bridge. XD

I don't even... So what did you come across? Do share!

Trader & Shipping Support / Pending? (eBay/PayPal)
« on: July 23, 2016, 04:28:13 PM »
Hi!

I'm not sure if this is a problem or not, but I have never experienced this before, so I gets on my nerves. :lookround:

I bought a non-pony item on eBay, but after a few days I got a message that the item was no longer available due to a listing error. I got a full refund right away, so no problem at all. But the refund is still pending when I look at my PayPal account, so I can't use it. Does that sort of thing solve itself? Or does it require action of any kind? :lookround:

Thanks! :)

Pony Brag Arena / Tub O' Ponies!
« on: May 16, 2016, 10:21:46 AM »
Sorry for the misleading title, I didn't find this. I have yet to win the pony jackpot. :P

No, this is my collection! The reason I'm posting this is that I finally have my collection properly stored! :D Unfortunately I can't have them them out on display at the moment, so they were all just sitting in this tub. Loose. :crazy: With dismay I've been watching them getting worse evertime I opened the box, so now I finally bought zip lock baggies! I'm so happy with this, I did their hair before I put them in their bags, and the chartreuse-haired ones that share a bag with other ponies are in an extra sandwich bag to prevent staining, so now they stay beautiful!  :frolic:

Trader & Shipping Support / Dutch custom regulations?
« on: May 12, 2016, 02:39:55 AM »
Probably a stupid thing to ask as it's my own country, but I really couldn't find it. :blush:

Does anyone know if the clearing costs (not sure if that's the correct translation?) you have to pay depend on the value of the package? What I already know is that you have to pay extra when the value is over €22, but what I'd like to know if the actual amount depends on the value. I always thought it did, but now I had to pay €18 for a package with a value of €24, while I had to pay the same a while back for something with a value of €40.

It's no problem or anything, I knew beforehand that I would have to pay extra. But I would just like to know what to expect next time since I thought it worked differently. :)

Thanks! :D

How much do they go for lately, loose and as a pair? And are they hard to find as a pair? I'm looking to buy them this summer. :D

Thanks! ^.^

Pony Corral / Ponies you should NOT like!
« on: May 07, 2016, 02:45:20 AM »
My apologies if this thread already exists, but I like the"Ponies you should like, but..." thread very much, so let's turn it around! :D Which ponies are everything you dislike about a pony, but still catch your attention for some reason?

For me it's Star Dancer! I really dislike that pose, and usually pink ponies with blue or blue/greenish hair are the ones in a set I don't really want (Princess Primrose, Baby Softsteps, Baby Schoolbag, Firefly, you get the idea), but for some reason Star Dancer always screams "WANT!" XD

I usually also dislike pink ponies with yellow hair because they look like sweaty blondes (especially Tappy, that pose isn't really helping either XD ), but for some reason Baby Mischief is one of my favourite ponies ever! :heart:

So how about you? :pillow:

Wanted! / ~ My Wishlist! ~
« on: May 04, 2016, 01:12:09 PM »
I didn't have a wishlist online yet, so here goes! :rainbow: :D

I am currently buying, but I may not always have the funds to buy one or more ponies. As for the expensive ones, I had to list them to make it complete of course, but if you have a beautiful Nightlight or NSS Truly for sale, please don't tell me! Ponies in that price class are way out of my reach. XD

I'd like to think that I'm not a picky collector, but sadly I must admit that I am. :blush: Flaws I particularly can't stand are mismatched head and body, frizzy hair, massive hair cuts and discolouration/yellowing. However, I usually don't mind slight haircuts or some little marks here and there. Faded pink hair is okay as well, as it's easy to fix! ^.^

And lastly... These are the ponies I REALLY want, otherwise the list would get way too long. There are tons more that I'd like to have, but these are the BIG wants! :rainbow: :newpony:

Pony Corral / Lousy Kingsday!
« on: April 27, 2016, 02:19:22 AM »
For the first time in my life, I haven't found ANY ponies at the kingsday markets. I can't believe it... :| :cry:

This has NEVER happened before. For those who don't know; on kingsday (formerly known as queensday) there are fleamarkets everywhere in The Netherlands, and it's mostly toys, too! It's THE THING of the year for pony collectors! It's pony heaven usually! But the weather is awful, there's storm, rain, hail... So most people got scared off, there was almost no one/nothing there. :(

So how's the pony luck in the rest of the country? I sure hope it's a lot better than here! Anyway, I'm going on a pony shopping spree online now, because I can't have a kingsdag without new ponies. :mrgreen: That's just unthinkable. :lookround:

Price Check Archives / PC: Starshine
« on: October 25, 2015, 04:48:06 AM »
Hi! :D

How much should I expect to pay for a near mint, snow white Starshine? I'm looking for her as a gift for my husband. I thought she was kind of common, so the prices I saw on eBay seemed rather high to me?

Thanks! :rainbow:

Off Topic / Ugh... Firefox!
« on: May 16, 2015, 06:30:58 AM »
Is anyone else having issues with Firefox since the last update? :( Suddenly it's e-x-t-r-e-m-e-l-y slow, scrolling is nearly impossible, and even typing this message is a pain. :sneaky:

I already renewed Firefox, I updated some add-ons like Java and Flash Player, and I really don't know what else I can do (the things I mentioned were already scary enough as I know zero about this). Is anybody else experiencing this?

Price Check Archives / PC: Deflocked Paradise
« on: May 15, 2015, 12:12:23 PM »
How much does she usually go for? And is it hard to find one? I really have no idea, but a deflocked Paradise is a BIG want of mine.

Thanks! :D

Pony Brag Arena / Belated Kingsday Brag!
« on: May 02, 2015, 01:23:00 AM »
The atmosphere at the markets was depressing (significantly less people selling (and buying) things, long faces everywhere, no annoying kids playing music, hardly any food stands, I guess everyone was afraid of the rain?  :hmm: ), BUT! Once again I got what I came for.  :P

The big highlight is Swirly Whirly, she was a big want of mine! At first I thought it was a bummer that her hair had been cut, but she turned out so lovely (the same goes for Fizzy by the way)! :D

Price Check Archives / PC: MOC Baby Mischief!
« on: March 06, 2015, 05:04:09 AM »
Hi!  :D

I'm curious what a MOC Baby Mischief (on a Dutch card) usually goes for. I just bought a gorgeous one, and I always thought the Starlight Babies were much more expensive than this. So I'm just curious!

Thanks! :D
