UPDATE - twins arrived in perfect shape. I'm calling this a win, and I'll leave good feedback for them, but won't be buying anything else from them in the future. Too wary now. Thanks for all your advice!

That's a fantastic, yay for you!   :cheer:

A few years ago, on my birthday, some friends and I went to Value Village and my friend found me a bunch of ponies, including 4 of the pearly babies. Surprise birthday ponies are the best.  :)

I've recently learned the charms with bells are called Charm Things. I had a bunch as a kid, but I don't think I ever knew what they were actually called.

This etsy seller has some moc, and a bunch of loose sets too:https://www.etsy.com/listing/233254463/new-on-card-80s-bell-charms-moc-lot-of

UPDATE: I have received an invoice, and payed. They sent a message saying they had been in the hospital, and apologized profusely for the delay. *shrug* I still probably won't buy from them again.

*EDIT* I realized I should clarify - it's not that I don't have sympathy for someone who's been ill or injured, it's just that it's very easy (and quite common) for someone to say they've been in hospital in order to get out of trouble. And after learning all the other issues people have had with her, I'm not comfortable buying from her again.

Thanks very much for your offer, Miss_Pompon! I'm really hoping everything else will go smoothly now, and the babies will show up in good condition. If they dont, I may be contacting you!  :)

Yeah, I see that now :/ 

Well, I'm gonna hop on the website and request an invoice. As far as I can tell, the eBay app (which is what I usually use for ebaying) doesn't have a way to do this, hence the messaging.

If I get an invoice, I will go through with the transaction, but if those babies aren't in the condition they're said to be, I will raise hell.

So, a week ago I won both Sticky and and Sniffles (separate auctions) from poniesandpetals. Since they offer combined shipping, I sent a message requesting an updated invoice. I got no response back. I have since sent another message and still have not received an answer.

Their feedback on ebay is great, so it didn't occur to me to check here, but now I see there have been some problems with this seller before.

What do I do now? I guess contact ebay? But even if they do finally send an invoice, I'm almost hesitant to even go through with the transaction. But I really wanted those babies. They were to be a gift for a dear friend who has been through hell the past year, and is still recovering.  :(

Oh! I think I just saw a moc set on ebay! I'll pm you.

Pony Corral / Re: What Was the First Pony in Your Collection?

Based on release years, and supplemented by hazy memories, my first ponies were Glory, Firefly, and Cherries Jubilee.

Pony Corral / Re: What ponies are you currently after?
« on: May 25, 2015, 07:53:18 PM »
For myself? How much time you got? ;)

My current searches are for a friend, though. They had a really rough year last year; and due to the animosity and stupidity of a former landlord they lost more than half of their possessions, including what little they had left from their childhood.

They are now in a new place, and doing much better. Last week, while visiting family, they were able to re-obtain their childhood ponies from a younger cousin, but there had been a few casualties over the years.

So I'm currently on the hunt for Sticky & Sniffles' accessories (just won the twins on eBay, woo!), and Tropical Breeze. They are also missing MO Spike, but he might be a bit harder to obtain, financially speaking. :/

Thanks, hathorcat. I'm not particularily looking to resell, just add to my own collection. If I get them, I'll probably debox any I don't already own.

Thanks for your input, Aadra310. He wants $250 for the lot, so I guess that works out. I may still see if he'll drop the price a bit, but at least I know I wouldn't be drastically overpaying.

O_o. Well, in that case, his price is very reasonable! I'm not so good at pricing MIB G3's, apparently.  :lol:

Thanks for your help!

Local seller has this lot of mostly MIB G3s, with two G1s and the S1 dvd set thrown in. I'm thinking his price is high, but I wanted to double check. What would you pay for this?
(this is the best pic he had that everything in it)
