Mine is called Rallison and my wireless is TARDIS.  I have the Seal of Rassilon as my computer image.   :biggrin:

That's not bad at all.  I was referred by a friend to get a job with her company and I misspelled her name in my cover letter and when filling out the referral part in the application form.   :blush:

I have her and do like her, but then, I'm partial to pink.  I tried to re-style her hair for her sale photos and I think she turned out ok for a first time doing the ringlet curls, though I do hope they loosen up.

She's a charm that came from Claire's, I have three still on their cards.  The price sticker has them at $3.25 US and $5 CDN and they have little clasps on them so you can easily add or remove from a charm bracelet.  Yours looks like it's painted way nicer than mine.  Here's a pic of my 3.

She's not a Christmas ornament (maybe they sold under 2 descriptions) unless you have a teeny tiny tree, which I do, so thanks for the great idea!

Granted, but all your new found money must go to charities.

I wish I had an awesome job.

This has been a rather enlightening thread to watch.  Now, I'm an eBay-er from waaaaaay back, 1998 to be exact.  When I joined you DID NOT back out of bids, it was stressed that there was a binding contract between you and the seller to see the transaction through.  When my mom joined up recently she asked me about changing her mind on a bid for an item that she made.  My answer to my sweet little lady of a mother who's on a fixed income?  "Too bad, Mom, you placed the bid, you've agreed to buy it if you win the auction."  Granted I didn't know about bid cancellations but I wouldn't have encouraged that anyway, I don't feel it's right just because you change your mind.  This is not a retail store.

I understand people run into financial issues but, (a) it shouldn't happen 33 times previously and then be a big surprise that it happened again (unless it was all at once, but then, why were some item transactions completed and others not?), and (b) try to work with the seller and see if you can get an extension on the payment time or at least be very open and transparent about the issues at hand and not make the seller guess at motivation.  It's about being responsible and knowing your limits.  It's about respecting the purpose of the website and those who use it.  And it's not about how much an item was purchased by the seller, it's about how much it's actually worth and how much you, as a bidder, agree to pay for it.  If a person chooses not to pay for an auction they need to be prepared for the seller filing an NPB.  You can ask for a cancellation but that doesn't mean you get it.  Granted this is all my personal opinion, but I feel that much of it will ring true for others.

Prettypony55, I'm glad that you are standing up to hold people accountable for their actions, but more importantly, your own rights, even if being harassed because of it.  We are all here to give you support in this, since this is the purpose of this message board. :hug:

I've taken to putting in only the minimum bid and putting my max as a sniping bid, or just sniping my max bid after keeping a close eye on the auction (but don't put it in my watchlist, I don't need to tip off any possibly-shady seller that I'm debating on buying from them -_- ).

Does a seller get notified when you put an item on your watch list?  I had no idea.  I tend to do the snipe thing as well, and have occasionally put the min bid in to start with also.  I always thought I was being weird but if others are doing the same, maybe not.  :cool:

I've got a few you're looking for, especially the early G1's.  I have a never used boxed dream castle.  I'd say mint but the castle itself has yellowing glue but everything else has never been used and are in their bags.  Have a look, the link is in my sig.

Hi, I have twilight for sale.  You can see my sales from the link in my sig.  I have a brown My Pretty Pony but she's on hold at the moment.  If the sale falls through...

Thanks!

Pony Corral / Re: Ask the Experts: G1 Applejack with Orange Apples???
« on: October 02, 2012, 08:56:11 AM »
Thanks so much everyone for your help!  It's good to know there are other Applejacks like that out there. I wouldn't have thought the red would fade but just goes to show one can always learn something new.  Mystery solved!  :biggrin:  I still think she's special, but now, just in a different way.  I like the variety.
