I have 3 of these to sell!
I've yet to identify them (I'm identifying all the regular ponies first)
Does anyone know how much these usually go for?  (and if they're washing machine safe?  :P )

Plush listing
Price depends on condition.

Washing--spot treat; put inside a pillowcase and use a cold setting. I usually let them air dry. A hot dryer will ruin their hair.
Commons range from $5; I have an extra Parasol that I can't seem to give away... Hard to price them out when they're kinda allover the place.

I think I have one of the Uk-exclusive pajama cases... Since I noticed one has a zipper. This really helps, thanks so much!

The ponywear stickers...I think...either mostly weren't or all weren't sold in the UK. Chrissytree would probably know for certain as she's the resident UK expert on stickers and accessories...but I am fairly sure most of those outfits in that form also weren't sold here, so you might have a better Europe-based market for those than US based.

Puffy pony stickers carried on in the UK and places where UK packaged stuff was exported to after they stopped in the US. So that's why some of the ponies are harder to get stickers for than others.

Sweetie's sticker should be more common than some of the other TEs because she was sold over 2 years but the reality is everything from the 1987 TE line - stickers, backcards, MOCs - are really rare so it probably doesn't make much difference. And she has the UK name so that's also a curiosity.

The twins are also sought after because of the misnaming on the sticker.

They're nice finds, definitely hold out to sell them to a collector :)

I actually don't think Pinwheel is that common either, sticker wise - but she's another one we didn't have here, so someone in the US will need to confirm. I feel like 2nd set Rainbows don't show up as much as 1st set ones.

I personally don't care about stickers on or off their backing, and have peeled many off buildings, playset pieces and accessories over the years - but there are some very hardcore serious sticker collectors who will pay more for them on original backing.

Do you know any collector users on here that might be interested in the stickers? I have a lot of stickers like these but without pony names too, and some double stickers for ponies that I do still have. So the collection is quite extensive

Sweetie and Dimples and Ruffles were only available outside the USA, so they are fairly rare and much more valuable than the rest.  The ponywear stickers are probably the most common puffy stickers.  It’s been a little while since I bought stickers, so my pricing might be a bit off, but I’d probably price the ponywear stickers at $8-$10, and Baby Blossom about the same(though it looks like the sticker might be mis-aligned).  If the backing is flipped so that the sticker is stuck to the wrong side, that price goes down to something like $5.

For Dimples and Ruffles, I wouldn’t go below $20, and I might go as high as $30. 

For Sweetie, I’d probably put that at $25-$35.  Puffy TE stickers are very hard to find on their backing.

Thank you so much!!
I'm amazed that stickers like these are so valuable, I almost threw them out LOL

I also have 2 that miss their backing (and that have been used)
Pinwheel: https://www.flickr.com/photos/161371062@N02/48264562126/in/album-72157709593385682/ (it has some of the back layers peeled off)
and Pompom pony: https://www.flickr.com/photos/161371062@N02/48264636432/in/album-72157709593385682/ (which has been used and it just missing its original backing

They probably really decrease in value if they've been used already, but I still saw some up on ebay, so;;

These are all unused and on their original backing. Do they all have the same value? Or are some more rare than others?

Hi! I'm new here.
I'm on this forum to sell my aunt's collection of G1 sets and ponies. I'm currently identifying the ponies, making sure her sets are complete, and giving some ponies some makeovers.

My plan now is to:
1. Try to sell the complete sets (which btw still come in their original boxes)
2. Try to get as many people ponies from their wishlists as possible
3. Sell the extra accessories in bulk
4. Sell whatever is left over to a someone for a good price.

In any case! I hope I'll find what I'm looking for here. If you are interested in buying (part of) the collection, please message me!
I'll post photo's soon.
