Is this an accurate ending value?

[ChipsteRJ]

Pony prices seem to be all over the place, and apparently I can see the reason many do NOT allow "0" FB bidders...

Please tell me this is NOT an accurate ending value:

Is the market just crazy these days? I saw the mother sell in a couple of auctions for 100+ I think even $150+

Cotton Candy selling for $20+ IN MULTIPLE AUCTIONS (AND MINE ONLY SOLD FOR THE OPENING BID...)- wow sorry for caps lock...

I know we have another thread on this already, but what kind of trends are other there? I know ponies & Petals ALWAYS gets great prices on their ponies- many other sellers have equally good (or better) conditioned ones and only get about 1/3 the cost... did you see that buggy go for $46? I sold one for under $8 (but it was missing the heart topper)

Then there was this spectacular accessories lot ton of accessories I tell you- ended at just under $125 (110)!

Are there any current trends?

[kellyponyfeathers]

That seemed pretty high to me.  I won a NM one for $55ish around Christmas.

Maybe this seller is more known on Ebay and that's why she has more viewers (& bidders) to her auction?

I'm curious if that 0 feedback bidder will actually pay, by the way.

[hathorcat]

The winning bid may have been from 0 feedback [dont I know all about those at the moment..*grumpy face*]...but the buyer who bid it up to $175 has significant feedback so clearly someone was willing to pay a little off the top price.

Here is where I ll get shouted down lol. I posted recently that the pair with their accessories complete I thought were in the $400 ish region...however I think a couple of people mentioned that that was a little high. I really do think that if Sweet Scoops is $400 ish and Punzie is $600 then a MO Baby should normally be about the $150+ mark. And this gal looks to have super pink hair! I would happily have paid that to upgrade mine.

[MsTwilight]

I agree completely with Hathorcat.  I would also pay $150ish to upgrade my MO baby. That one has such nice hair!! How did I miss this?!?

I've sold 2 sets of Mommy & Baby in the last few months & got $225-250 for each set. I think $150 a piece is an accurate price for them in excellent condition.

[Mermaid]

I think the MO mom and baby set fluctuates so much from the 50-100 dollar mark.  Over the years I have seen them sell for as low as $50 to up to $200. They are a weird pair. I think $150 is a little on the high side but $50-$55 like Kellyponyfeathers paid is a little on the low side, but like others said, she looks to be in fantastic condition!

Omg.... you want crazy prices? The ending bid on this auction made my jaw drop... Did you guys see this one?

[Tiggums6]

Okay marlin, you win this round!

I think if someone wanted to get the baby to go with the mommy it'd be easy to get that high. How did anyone get one for $55!!!!!!!??? Well done there! I would pay about $150 if I had the money because I really want baby for the Mum, so that's only $28 more...and if you've bid that far why not try to win. Just my thoughts. but no,$1,1250 is crazy.

[PrincessLocket]

I bought my set last year both were individual BIN from the same seller both just about perfect with amazing pink hair and I'm pretty sure I paid around $150 each.  I'm a fussy collector though so I'd happily pay a little more for a pony with perect pink hair, factory curls etc especially if' it's a rare or popular pony

I guess it's worth that to the buyer the mommy pony is very rare, so when she comes up for sale people seem to go mad.

On a doll forum I'm on, we don't have price checks, because the  oldie collectors say that the dolls are worth whatever a collector is willing to pay

I like this last line! That is completely what I believe...a vintage pony has no RRP so its "worth" is set by the person buying it.

[ChipsteRJ]

I had actually seen that one- I'm wondering if it was actually paid for...
In that condition the start price was too high for me!

[tulagirl]

I don't really know but did anyone read this seller's feedback. Um yikes I wouldn't take the risk for a pony really...you guys are talking about the bidder...I just looked at the seller's page on that auction.  Also there could be some shilling going on in some auctions. I hate to say that...but its a little odd for anyone to spend 20.00 for Cotton Candy.  I guess someone could be new to ponies and do it not realizing that, but if it involves a zero bidder I always wonder.
