Selling blind bags
« on: May 14, 2012, 04:26:50 PM »
 Hi, I’ve decided to sell my Wave 3 European blind bags, apart from Fluttershy, although I’m toying with the idea of using them to make G1-based customs. These are the ones I’m (possibly) selling:
#1 Twilight Sparkle
#3 Bitta Luck
#4 Rainbowshine
#6 Glow in the dark Pinkie Pie
#14 Apple Dazzle
#18 Glow in the dark Rarity
#19 Applejack
#21 Cherry Berry
#22 Heartstrings
#23 Noteworthy
I have their cards but not the original packaging. Do you think I should sell them individually or as a group? And what would be a reasonable price for them? Thanks :3

I bought my Wave 3 blind bags for about $5-6 each.  But the Glow in the Dark and Boys were $8-10 each.

the rare times I sell mine instead of trading I sell them at 3€ (The newer waves cost 2,5 now instead of 2 like wave1) + shipping.
And that's for all ponies since the "special" ponies aren't any rarer than the others if you get them from a fresh box.


Nobody complained even though shipping can be a bit much to certain countries.

In all honesty as they can still be found in most places for retail price of £2 to £2.50 [and I think Morrisons in the UK is even selling them cheaper than that!] - I think thats what the "going rate" would be - you are of course entitled to add whatever you like on to the top for the trouble of selling them on! But I dont think you ll find many people willing to pay more than the £3-£3.50 even for the boys and Heartstrings. A few I have sold on ebay started and ended at the £2.50 they cost me.

You could offer them individually as often people are only looking for 1 or 2 or 3 but if someone came along to buy the lot then that would certainly make shipping easier!

 
Thank you Matcha for my gorgeous Baby Fifi avi :hug:
