PC Brazil Heart Throb and Greek Baby Firefly
« on: August 05, 2012, 03:20:15 PM »
Some members have said recently that they're in a nirvana dry spell, but I'm standing in a deluge right now.  My wallet is screaming at me that I'm hurting it.  I keep telling it to be quiet because I've gotten really good deals on the ones I've bought, but it's not listening to me.  Maybe it will believe you guys instead.  So how'd I do?  Can I get a PC on these wins?

http://www.ebay.com/itm/130731142012?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1439.l2649

The first is Brazil Heart Throb.  I threw out a low bid, not expecting to win.  As soon as I did, I began to doubt that it was a good idea because I thought there might be hidden flaws.  The description says that she MAY have a small haircut (I hate vague descriptions like that).  But she's already arrived, and she's lovely.  Definitely no haircuts; her forelock is a bit shorter than those of regular releases, but that seems normal for Brazil ponies.  She has light frizz, but again that's almost unavoidable with Brazils. Tail looks original.  No stains anywhere.  No rubs to eyes or symbols, just a small rub to her NDS blush.  So she looks gorgeous, and I think I got a bargain.  She was $100 shipped, and doesn't she normally sell for about $200+ in this condition?

And I wasn't expecting to win Greek Baby Firefly either for just over the starting bid.  She hasn't arrived yet, but she seems like she'll be in great condition too.  I only have a few Greeks and don't know much about pricing them, but I would have thought that she'd be worth more than $160.  (I know Grk Baby Cotton Candy and maybe Blossom too are easier to find, but I  though Baby Firefly was rarer.)

Also, can anyone tell me if the Greek babies had specific accessories that came with each one?  Or were there color variations so that the same baby could come with different colored ID necklaces and bottles and stuff?  I have some Grk baby accessories that my new Firefly and also my CC will have to share between them.  I would like to get each baby's correct accessories eventually, but if they were randomly matched with accessories anyway, then maybe I won't worry about it.  (I have 2 pinkish purple Grk ID necklaces and 3 bottles with tealish blue tops, and also a white rocking crib and a white playpen with blue bottom, and a blanket and pillow for each.)
Nirvana grails:  Reverse Gusty (upgrade), Peru Windy and Moonstone (upgrade), Brazil TAF upgrades, Argie Powder w/ white hair (upgrade), French Windy and Moondancer (upgrades), Spain TAF's, TE's, and piggies.  These are my biggest wants, but I'm looking for tons more nirvanas, especially Greeks, Brazilians, and Peruvians.  Feel free to PM me for sales or trades.  But please note that I'm also fairly picky.

Congrats on Greek Baby Firefly!!
What a great price for her!!

Hm, Brazil Heart Throb.. I saw her here up for sale in the last year a few times and she normally was between $100-$120.

Hope that helps.

I think you did good on both of  them! Some of the Greek Baby prices are down at the moment, including Firely, but I think that was still a fair price for her :) Congrats on your new purchases!
