Aww! Congratulations on getting them back again! :D

Whoah! I saw the Ice Cream pony and thought 'She's not too bad' until I saw the NDS photo... where did her mane *go*? She's adorable anyway. I hope she finds a good home.

I made a little tutorial on using a straightening iron on ponyhair.

Awesome! That was very useful, thankyou!

He's so gorgeous, the only way I'm going to own him is to get a custom of him done. XD I'd need more contents insurance on my house before putting him in it!

Wow that's a bright yellow. She's quite a literal Firefly! Good luck with your sales!

mercynova - Yeah it's weird isn't it? I haven't seen any either! I'm going to look around for some today plus a few ship-safe extra bits and pieces. I *love* living in York, there is a practically endless chocolate selection! *bounce*

Oh and if the replacement pony I just got off eBay arrives damaged/sticky I am going to be seriously unimpressed. I'm going to go check on the one I cleaned yesterday, if all else fails I'll keep her for me since I don't have her and she wasn't on my wishlist (I think?).

FantasticFirefly - That does make me feel better, thankyou. Ponies bounce about all over the place, I tend to PC rares and such before I debate selling them, because I don't want to lose them to have to sell a limb to get them back again.

Scarletjul - Well, since it's all through the Arena and not eBay that's pretty much confirmed, so that's a nice thought. =)

Eskara - aaaaaugh. D: You win, or possibly lose, or... something... *commiseration hugs*


Fingerpaints - this isn't someone pulling my things from eBay, the last time I saw that happen was the UK seller with the piggy pony, and I was one of the people to tell her (him?) that the piggy was worth much more than £20! She got £134 for her in the end.

Yeah, but I thought I had solid prices in mind from what I know from the UK Ponycon/etc. In fairness it's not everything I listed, just some more unusual items... all the same, OOPS.

And this is why I always give input to PC threads, but obviously forget to make them!

stopxmotion - start kicking up a fuss, especially if the staff were rude to you. Treatment like that is just not on! I mean, they mishandled and lost your items, and other postal stuff, they should at least give you an apology. =( *offers hugs*

I could bloody shoot eBay, I really could. I bought a pony for my partner and she arrived *sticky* and with a massive dot on her face, I think it's a rust mark but she's totally clean otherwise? I have scrubbed her up but I'm less than impressed here, I have a gathering of little things for my partner, but I don't think they're good enough... Oh and my postman stuffed said pony butt-first into my letterbox so the parcel was hanging out of the front of the door, my housemate found her when she came home from work.

BLAAAARGH.

When you say flat irons, do you mean hair straighteners? What temperature did you use them on? I'm itching to try on a few of my flyaway ponies!

Your Argies look lovely! :3

Eyup. I just did this. I put up ponies/accessories for far less than their current market worth, and they've sold. I've found out that they are worth several times what I listed them for and I'm feeling quite...rubbish really. On the one hand I used prices I think are fair and good, and I hope that the people who want all these items are collectors who want to avoid eBay insanity price hikes, on the other hand I hope I didn't just give away what's essentially a month's rent to someone who will resell the items!


So, go on, misery loves company, what/who did you ever undersell or not realise the value of?


(and for reference, I will not go back on agreed prices with people who have already had things put on hold/sold with me. I don't think that'd be right)

I'll wait to see if they turn up at home. I refuse to buy them off Amazon or anything if I can avoid it, the prices are hiked so much. Our Asda here is tiiiiiny so I won't see them on shelves.

I found Twilight & Spike's Balloon in USA packaging in Boyes here, which is the local rubbishy cheap shop with an added fabric shop above it. Other than that I've had no luck. I'll keep an eye out for anything like that opening up!
