Pony Corral / Surprise! It's ponies!
« on: June 21, 2013, 03:02:37 PM »
Two years ago, I unpacked my ponies, although with half of my belongings from storage. I then cut my collection in half since I don't have the room I used to and don't expect that to change. Today I while cleaning our storage room, I found 4 boxes which I THOUGHT were textbooks, it turns out two were not, and ONE of those two was full of PONIES! Ponies that I had thought I had sold (I was SURE I had sold Gypsy and Baby Fifi), and some I don't hadn't even remembered owning, like a fancy-pants argie. Arg... now I have to do my best not to keep any more as there are so many cuties in this box. I thought I was through these tough decisions... oh well, fun going through the box though and hopefully I'll find new homes for some here for those I'll have to part with. Holy-box-of-cuteness, so much better than a box of textbooks!

How about you? Ever find ponies you were thought were long gone? Ever stumble across a pony in your collection you don't recollect collecting? Or were sure you had sold? Or maybe you just fond a pony in an odd place?

Hi, I think I've decided to sell a few more ponies and hope you lovelies can help me with prices again.

Lily Ledy Mexican Cotton Candy, I did a PC before but now I think she has pindot on her neck, so I'm wondering how that will affect her value. She also is faded on one side as if she sat in the window for some time and has scratches to her symbol and a smudge above one eye.

Brazil Softie? MOC but the card has a fair bit of wear, the back is yellowed, it's a bit bent, and the plastic is clear and sealed but has a few crinkles.

Greek MIP (although the P is really flattened/ripped)  Raincoat outfit, what are these worth?

Pony Corral / Vancouver BC G1 Collectors
« on: May 04, 2013, 08:17:30 PM »
Hey Vancouverites! I've decided to sell of a large chunk of my collection (no space for it all anymore!) and am trying to figure out the easiest way to do it... I've sold here and on Craigslist and am debating which way to go this time since the amount of stuff I have to sell is getting a bit overwhelming to look at... just trying to gauge if there are many of us locally making Craigslist worth the effort (which I'd like to do since I have larger items/playsets as well as ponies and accessories and can sell in lots which might get it out of my hands faster) or if I should just stick to the arena which is also nice since I'll know they're going to collectors, but it might take a bit longer to sell as large lots would be too costly re: postage...

Essentially: are there many G1 collectors out here? Do you buy locally or stick to on-line?

Thanks!

« on: March 04, 2013, 06:06:09 PM »
Both my toddlers LOVE Tappy... only one thinks she's a pig and once thinks she's a dog!  Poor little Tappy gets barked and oinked at!  At least she gets some luv I suppose!

Oink oink! I'm a pony!

My avatar kept disappearing, and then it wouldn't let me load for some reason. I was able to add it as a link, but it's all stretched wide... am I doing something wrong? Please and thanks for any advice you can give me!

Off Topic / Brad Pitt Chanel commercial

Have you seen it? What do you think?

I can't figure out what I think. The end is confusing though. Is the perfume is luck, his fortune? Or a woman wearing it?

MLP Nirvana / PC Argie Baby Posey
« on: October 21, 2012, 03:16:39 PM »
How much does she go for in good condition? (small spot above her eye, small scratch under chin, minor scuff on symbol)

Also, is baby Ribbon Nirvana or regular? I'm thinking of selling her too and was wondering what she may be going for. Mine has a few noticeable ink spots on both of her sides, NDs has two, DS has one, plus a small one under her hair.

I can provide pics if it helps.

Thanks again!

MLP Nirvana / Price Check - Cotton Candy(s)
« on: October 19, 2012, 05:36:12 PM »
**edit: I have posted a for sale- auction in the Nirvana Sales forum! Pictures can be found there (accidentally moved them and broke the links in this post, but they can be seen the the for-sale post!)

Hi, I've been a way for a while and am back as I'm looking to reduce my collection (gasp!) and was hoping for some help with pricing. Here are the ladies I think I'll be looking for new homes for so far: Italy, Peru baby, FF HK, Auriken Mexican, Baby Mexico, Lili Ledy Mexico, Baby Brazil, Peru, Brazil, and no-country.

(I also have a greek somewhere, and a macau with her symbols rubbed off, but haven't yet found them to take photos, they didn't make it back into the display-case when we moved unfortunately):

Italy - played with condition, various smudges and dirty looking stains here and there looking closely as well as a few black smudges under her chin.

Peru baby - a very faint dirt stain on her ear and under her hooves, very minor dents above her nose (although they may have been there since the factory), pretty gorgeous otherwise.

Flat Foot Cotton Candy, not a nirvana I  know but hopefully it's okay to ask what she may be worth here with the others. She just has a couple of faint marks.

CC Auriken Mexican? (FF no country) Cut forelock, a few minor scuffs and a dry mane. I could be imagining it, but doesn't she have the best CC smile? Especially with one eye facing forward and one looking back. Good golly she makes me :)

Baby Mexico: minor dirt/stains around her hooves and face.

Mexico: Lili Ledy a few minor dirty marks here and there. Her right-side looks like it was in the sun as it is faded compared to her left.

Baby CC Brazil: missing her tail, circular dirt spot on her lip, looks like a mane-cut too. Still adorable, love her soft-pink eyes!

Peru: In really good shape, a few light marks that look like they might have been dots for a pen on her bottom (under her tail) on very close examination.

Brazil: end of her tail is a bit dry; otherwise she's gorgeous.

CF  82 Hasbro Pat Pend, no country Can't seem to remember where this little lady came from! Her head is not glued on (I can spin it), she's very hard plastic and a bit orange (from age I suspect). Advice?

Thanks so much for any advice you might have!

Introductions / It's been a while!
« on: October 19, 2012, 02:56:30 PM »
Hi, I've barely been on in the last years, so I thought I should reintroduce myself. I've been in love with ponies since Cotton Candy and I first locked eyes when I was four or five years old. I began collecting again as an adult and have quite a nice collection at this point... all the ponies little-me had ever wanted, and then some... so many beauties I never knew existed back then!

I took a break as I adopted the most amazing little boy, he's my universe, I'm so in love :) so it's been hard to fit in all the hobbies from before! I'm loving being a mom so much, we're on our way to adopting a little brother for him :) This is mostly why I'm back... due to two little ones, I need the space and the $$ that's being held up in ponies, so it's time to pare the collection down a bit (someone hold me!).  It'll be hard choosing who to send back out in to the world but I'm so glad to have the Arena so I know they will go to someone who will treasure them like I have!

Anyway, thanks for reading my reintroduction. Hope to see you on the boards!
