Lol, like so many here I dread letting go of ponies, especially for money. I have traded a few for new G1 ponies to my herd, and that's about all I can manage. I have soooo many first wave flutter ponies it's painful, but I think the pain would be worse if I - gasp! - sold them! My family is under STRICT orders never to sell my collection, even if I die! So someday I expect there will be a "Sarah Memorial Pony Museum" in existence here in Minnesota. Disicount admission for Arena members!

My friend and I were just talking about how lovely it would be to have a museum dedicated to My Little Ponies. :)



I told my husband that I wanted a little so rage building with electricity on our property so that I could create my own pony museum!

I have some other regrets too like some European ponies that I sold thinking I would not want to collect them. Wrong
The one that is really on my nerves is from like ten years ago when I diets started. I had a mint so soft best wishes. I didn't know anything about ponies and I thought u wouldn't collect those so soft ponies. Now I have a Nauru looking one and I am on the hunt for my minty one to replace that baity one. There is just something about having it in your possession and then not that can drive you crazy!

My prototype Alicorn Rarity...I miss her the MOST. I know she is just Rarity's head on Diamond Rose's body, but I don't care. I miss her a lot now that I am rebuilding my Rarity army.
Will always trade for limited edition/90s Pikachu stuff!

I have had it also with my ponies and Breyer horses when I sold them off. I think that is why I have had six Wintersong's in my life so far! LOL But I do get over most of them. I just keep the picture that I took of it :)

Yep!  I won't be able to afford to buy them back for awhile, either.  However, my pain depends on how common they are.  If they are common but just a certain price, that's fine, but I really worry about not being able to buy them again, so some of them haven't left yet.  :-p

I've felt seller's remorse countless times, but I've had to sell chunks of my collection when I needed the money. Lots of ponies I've found again, but I've got a long way to go.

Yes!  I definitely regret selling some of my childhood ponies, even though I really needed the money at the time.  I'm reluctant to sell or trade any of the ponies that I have now, even some of my doubles, for fear that I'll miss them if I part with them.

I have never experienced this because I cannot part with any of my collection.  I do sell off doubles because I don't have the room for extra ponies but I've never felt regret because I still have the pony in my collection.  I have a very supportive husband and though he is not collector himself he will not let me sell collection ponies.  He always says we'll find another way....and we always do.   ;)

Oh gosh yes! I sold 2 Sweetie Baby barrettes many years ago and sold them pretty cheaply too. Cue 4 or 5 years later and I had to purchase them back [different ones of course] for about 10 times the price. I am still kicking myself :P
Thank you Matcha for my gorgeous Baby Fifi avi :hug:
Loa is my love god!
I love Loa more than PonyLady!
