Oh gee, I am responsible for not having responded to PMs telling me the shipping costs after I've asked for it.  I can be interested in something but not sure if I really want it and I want to know the total costs so I can do some more thinking on whether I should get it or not. I usually have a hard time making up my mind, about anything. I'm often interested in more than one sale/auction (I've never done a trade) and I can't and won't buy them all. I need to know the total costs to decide on what to get. Sometimes I think for too long and too much time has passed and I just forget about it. I never thought of the seller wanting a no thank you I'm not interested reply. Didn't think of it as being rude, thought of it as being nice not bothering people with a useless PM.  I have never asked for things to be put on hold for me or expected them to be, just wanted to know the shipping. I've never really thought of asking for the shipping price as the start of a deal and I don't think it is. Suppose I can send out no thank you PMs in the future.

Well, it's not contagious and I don't have to remove her tail - so happy for that, I suck at tail-removing. The spots are in a quite okay place and when she's assembled only 1 1/2 are showing, at least for now. Sorry for spamming with pictures but here's what she looks like after I used the acetone and needle wiggling technique. I also did it with cillit bang that contains chlorine. The spot faded a bit. The colour on her looks different because I took the photos at different times during the day - on different days as well. visitors can't see pics , please register or loginvisitors can't see pics , please register or login

I suppose age spots are better than mould, if it is true that they're not contagious. I don't have to do some deep cleaning. I really don't want to remove the tail and clean it inside, I've never had great success with that. The head has been thoroughly cleaned at least. Let's hope it takes a couple of years for the spots to spread, if that's their agenda.

Are these spots mould or cancer? It's Medley btw. She doesn't smell like mould or any other bad smell, she actually smells MLP. She's clean on the inside, just has those spots on her neck and inner neckring. Maybe that her body and hair was a bit sticky, as in plasticisers leaking sticky, but I don't know if Medley is one of the ponies that is known for doing that. visitors can't see pics , please register or loginvisitors can't see pics , please register or login

Balletpot, I love those mugs!
There's a few more motives and they do show up on "Swedish eBay" every now and then. They usually go for $13.00-$30.00 - although I got the Buttons mug for $7.6 as a BIN.

Here are some of mine, basically all from my childhood. I've only re-bought one of the mugs plus the Buttons mug is new to me. The language on the items is Swedish. visitors can't see pics , please register or loginRub-downs. Think you could get them at the ice cream van. visitors can't see pics , please register or loginvisitors can't see pics , please register or loginvisitors can't see pics , please register or loginvisitors can't see pics , please register or loginvisitors can't see pics , please register or loginvisitors can't see pics , please register or loginvisitors can't see pics , please register or loginDrawing pad. visitors can't see pics , please register or login

I don't have her, don't know if I want her either, however she is a twinkle eyed pony and I love those. I have her on a mug, two actually because I had to re-buy my childhood mug since my dad drank coffee from it throughout my teens and it was run in the dishwasher which ruined the print. I never understood why her eyes looked so weird when I was little becuse I never saw any twinkle eyed ponies in the stores. I didn't know what a twinkle eyed pony was until I started collecting about two years ago. visitors can't see pics , please register or loginThe "new" mug.

I don't have her and I don't want her even though she's very cute. However, she was part of my friend's childhood herd that I helped her fix up last winter, so I have "met" this pony in person and have photos. I did spend quite some time ironing Baby Rainribbon's blue hair stripe that was frizzy and hard to tame. She was my favourite baby pony out of my friend's babies and the only one I took a photo of with only one baby pony in it. (The others were Baby Tic Tac Toe, Baby North Star and Baby Ribbs.) visitors can't see pics , please register or loginvisitors can't see pics , please register or login

I'm not that much into G4:s but I love the glitter make-up. Not a fan of the hooves though.

Have her. She's one of my childhood ponies and she was my first baby pony ever. I don't think I ever saw her mum in stores here.  Although I knew she existed and thought she should have one. Maybe I can fix that now... I remember what store I got her from at that it was summer, I think. I didn't understand what the little pink elastic was for, think it got mixed up with my own ones and it's gone now. visitors can't see pics , please register or login

Interesting. I might have noticed it in the bedtime wear before, now that you mention it. I'll look more carefully at laces from now on.

Wow, that is amazing. How did you make the symbol so flat? What materials did you use (glitter, glue)?

Thank you for the compliments on my Gusty but I must admit that she looks better in that photo than in reality, she's not quite that white and her hair was newly styled then. Photographing using daylight and an SLR camera helps.  However she looked worse when I got her, yellowed and stinking of cigarette smoke. Here's my thread in the brag section a while back if you want to see before and after photos http://mlparena.com/index.php/topic,295640.msg187093.html#msg187093 )

Well, the pony that started all this (collecting as an adult) was Gusty. I thought I would settle once I got her but nooo... I also have Scandinavian Gusty and a NBBE Baby Gusty (with issues) now but this photo of Gusty will do. visitors can't see pics , please register or login
