Pony Corral / Re: How do I get curls to stay?
« on: April 26, 2020, 10:36:21 AM »
Not suitable for just anyone but I get excellent results with my food dryer. Maybe an oven on 50°C would be suited as well, but I let them sit in the food dryer overnight, ten hours or so. Might be a tad long for running an oven.

I had the idea because of the hint of letting them dry on the heater overnight though, only in winter, of course. In the end, it seems to be the mix of temperature and time. In the right ratio, temperature can shorten time, but in the long run, it still might give even better results to leave the hair culed after heat application as long as can be afforded. As curls always seem to tend to loosening in the long run. I once read someone let the curlers sit over a whole month! I find it difficult to get the right point where they don't move anymore at all. Also, some hair colors take curls more easily than others.

MLP Nirvana / Re: Pc on BROWN ITALIAN PEACHY please!!!
« on: November 10, 2019, 08:13:36 PM »
$150 and up, even up to $200 has been be the price for most italians with completely different colours than normal a little while ago like magenta Blossom, white Peachy, brown butterscotch and the like. Hybrids like grey Lemon Drop went for like $150, but then suddenly dropped to <$100 from what I observed on Ebay. Does anyone know wether they have gone back up since?

For what concerns brown Peachy, she's less unique than those mentioned before and I would put her in the same price range as Palomino Cotton Candy, who went for the same amount (70-80 Euros) thee times during the last year or so. I saw brown Peachy go MOC for 150 Euros once, if I remember right. But the buyer was pretty lucky imo, as I've seen her go MOC only once.

The last two times I've seen her go was for the prices stated for sure. Perhaps also because she's very similar to Macau Jenny who is, compared to the rare Italians, at a quite moderate price. So if someone is looking for the colour scheme, it would always be easier to aquire a Macau Jenny instead, which lowers demand? I am monitoring her since several months because she's one of two Macau-Likes still missing to my collection.

But if anyone else can contribute, I would be happy to learn more about the pricing going on for these? I don't have Facebook since two or three years so I'm totally out of that part of the community.

That depends, I have seen her being confused with Macau Jenny, then she went for around 40 Euros but also for like the double of that. The italian Macau-likes, non-hybrids in general have been around $50-$80 if I remember right.

Hello there, so sorry you have to let them go. I will throw in what I have in terms of price reference, because I know the situation of not getting any hint at all, although it's not much. Princess Tabby: the last one I saw on Ebay went for like 70... pounds, I think? It was one of Babydoll's auctions, but it had golden tinsel. That Princess Starburst variant should be around $180-$200, if in VGC.

I did sunfade an adult Elsi and as far as I remember, when the yellowing vanished, she became a lovely light blue. It was in the harsh summer sun in the south of France and the pony got no sun damage whatsoever.

An update from me as well, I had paid the difference for that first parcel from my own pocket, then stopped international shipments and after that updated my Ebay items with the current shipping options for private sellers. People within Europe really pay that ~10 Euros shipping fee but I have no sales towards the US and Canada anymore.

At the same time, I have seen all continuous german sellers, even those with private sales, have the cheap shipping option again and I could get it as well if only I had the time to list enough items to attract five international buyers in three weeks. I say "three weeks" well knowing that the five label limit actually is per trimester, but the first trimester is about to end in three weeks and of the second again, I will be in Germany only three weeeks, too. I do have a friend running a business who agreed to buy those labels for me.

Honeycomb, if you could find such a person as well, you would be able to get the cheap shipping option too which also runs at the usual speed (airmail).
Perhaps someone with whom you could split the 5 shipments-limit?
Although it's not Germany to blame here really, as to be precise they were forced to implement that crappy change by the Universal Postal Union seated in Bern, Switzerland.

Also thank you for the additional info, Libelle!

Baby and adult CC with light hair look mexican to me, just not sure about the adult CC with darker pink hair. Maybe Greek?

MLP Nirvana / Re: Novia accessories
« on: February 05, 2019, 02:56:25 PM »
Just as a little extra info: I've noticed in the past that while on images the argie combs/picks look similar to the US ones, they really are a tiny bit smaller and the features like the raised sun of the sun pick are a little less distinct/accurate. So it really is not a real option to replace those pieces with the regular US accessories of matching colour, if it's not to only maintain the original colour scheme a pony has together with her accessories.

I came across this thread again just now and checked my records... I have two mexican Dibbleses right now, but no Nibbles either. Weird indeed.
