The 1 Thing I Both Love and Hate on eBay

Ditto, I hate finding other things that aren't even MLP related too. Just because they're from the 80's it doesn't mean they're MLP. I hate getting a whole page full of one seller who lists 15 different Keypers items as MLP. I would type in "Keypers" if I was looking for Keypers!

We must be thinking about the same seller--s/he just keeps listing and relisting those cursed Keypers!  I want to write the person and say "No one wants your Keypers!"

Calling G3 ponies "vintage." Ran across that a lot today.

This this this!
And I hate when you try to politely inform someone that they're not vintage/G1 and they outright tell you that you have no idea what you are talking about or say you are trying to scam them! Ugh!

this!
i hate it when people act like i am an idiot! how about when a person buys something of you and trys to act like it was free shipping when it was not and get shipping back>?

Yeah, what's up with that??  I just had this happen this week!  I was like...wait a sec, shipping was $5.95 and now it's free.  Uhhhhh, what?

Ooh, I've seen this seller, too!  That one and the ones who keep trying to sell g3s as vintage (they're 6-10 years old!  They *must* be vintage!) drive me nuts!

I used to have much better luck with the sellers who didn't know what they were listing. Lately, I seem to see more overpriced ponies than not and when I do see something special and mislabeled - so does everyone else and I get outbid dead in the last 10 seconds.

I think some of the over-priced-ness  of the ponies might come from all the attention they are suddenly getting, from a combination of FiM and articles about vintage ponies (I have read a few over the past couple months). People see something about a certain pony being worth a bunch of money and perhaps assume ALL ponies are worth a lot.
