MLP Nirvana / PC: Spain Whizzer
« on: October 31, 2013, 09:47:38 PM »
Hello!

...and thanks in advance for any help :) My friend might want to sell her Spain Whizzer (she's not sure), and she'd need help with the price.

The pony has a hair cut (both mane and tail, my friend didn't say how bad), and the first plugs of her mane have been cropped down. She has some stray ink marks, a badly gaping neck seam and a couple of needlepoint-sized gashes, one near her neck seam and another on her DS (both very small).

If anyone can help that'd be lovely.

Right now I only have the seller's pics - they're blurry and bad quality, but I'll take my own when I borrow the van and actually lug them to my house (Thursday or Friday, apparently), so everyone can see a bit vintage fun.

I know eBay works for pricing, but those prices seem to fluctuate so much I would have liked a true collector-opinion :)

Hello peeps

It seem like I, um, "accidentally" bought a van full of vintage toys. All MIP/MOC, from a toy store that had gone bankrupt sometimes around 1990->1993 or something. I actually bought the lot to get my hands on the MIB G1 playsets there, but the lot has tons of other stuff too (80's and 90's toys from Turtles to Ghostbusters and everything in between), stuff I need to list.
Anyway, does anyone know how high do MOC Polly Pocket-sets, MIB Precious Places playsets and MOC Fashion Star Fillies outfits go to? I can get pics if that helps. A rough estimate will do nicely. :)


Cheers,

More experienced as in being member since 2006 vs 2011, or having a gazillion posts? ;) Activity is relative. I just prefer to spend my time selling, buying and trading rather than posting.

Feel free to warn people of me then. I certainly steer away from your sales in the future. Luckily I've had no complaints from the other sellers I've bought from over the years. Like my friend told me, luckily eBay also had decent sellers. Some on the Arena too ;)

Like I said earlier: I did not ding those stars. I clicked full marks and gave full stars. If eBay screws up, that is not my problem, because sadly, I do not run eBay.

I did know the shipping cost beforehand. I did not leave you lower stars because of "exaggerated shipping cost" because my friend told me the shipping was as charged. Why the heck would I leave bad stars on shipping cost if they were as charged? If I had left bad stars, it would have been about the poor packaging - and no, as I said earlier, I had no complaints about the condition of the pony, which is also why I did not contact you. IF I have a problem, I contact the seller. If I don't, I leave full stars. Quite simple.

If I had wanted to intentionally bully someone, the "dings" would have been in "item not as described", but that would have been almost as childish as this thread.

From what I have seen, most sellers have a rating anywhere from 4,3 to 4,9, and all are selling fast and well, no complaints about money held by Paypal. I do wonder how Paypal is going to "hold funds" from a seller who has received one ding, when it doesn't hold them from sellers who receive them all the time. Strange indeed. [/sarcasm]

^Actually, Ponylady, I was notified of this on FB. I'm a lazy bugger and usually never read anything other than the sales-forum, but my friend (the one who handles the parcels from sellers who only ship inside US) notified me and told me someone was publicly tearing me a new one, with others hysterically joining the bandwagon.

Also, I must confess, I'm a bit too LAZY to consider whether or not to rate the transaction as "1" or "3" or "5". It's easier just to click away those full stars all in a row. I figure if the flaw isn't bad enough for me to try and settle it with the seller straight up, then it isn't worth the time to think about lower ratings either.

I do wonder though if I clicked on a lower rating by accident, or could there have been a mishap in the eBay feedback system? I do usually leave a lot of feedback at the same time, just click an appropriate comment from memory of comments sent previously and then clickety-click go the stars. Or, as you said, an earlier rating coming up only then, which also sounds quite likely.

Just so you know: I gave you full stars, and I did not give low ratings on anything, certainly not the shipping cost which was decent. I have a friend in the 'States who receives packages for me, and I have no idea why your stars were "dinged", but I certainly gave full stars. And my friend (also a highly reputable member here) said the packaging cost was accurate. I don't easily "ding" stars, and I'm used popping a message if I feel shipping cost was exaggerated (I do that when the difference is over $10)- which it wasn't, and which is what my friend also told me. 

The only problem in your packaging we found that the pony was poorly packaged and it came to my friend's place crushed and wrinkled, but nevertheless I gave full stars on everything: description, communication AND shipping cost, since the pony itself was not damaged. Full marks. So I have no idea why your stars were "dinged".

I would have appreciated a PM or an eBay message before a campaign of slander. "Three cheers" for manners here... or lack of thereof. But apparently the culture here required whining behind someone's back and flying off the handle before trying to address the matter directly.

Thank you for everyone who "blocked" me before hearing my side. Duly noted ;)

Addendum: I know the US postal system very well, actually. But I never bother giving neg ratings or dinged stars unless I try to resolve things first: a matter which I always have preferred. Much more frugal way of handing things, compared to whining in public forum ;) Believe me: if I had thought you overcharged me, I would have contacted you.

Glad it was fun even though I used Finnish and the photo quality sucks (or so I'm told). And the stamps over each pic. *groan* The page is mostly a tool I use when I'm on the move and can't check through my collection.

Also, if it helps, here's a page full of pictures of my collection for those who wonder if they have a MOC/MIB that I need... although it's in Finnish. There's also a list of things on their way (bought, but still on their way to Finland) :)

And playsets / Pony Wear MOC/MIB are super wanted!
