What's that? An old toys store in my city? YES!

[paradise-estate]

So I was in town today, scoping around charity shops and the market for stray ponies (with not much luck ) When all of a sudden....... O.O 'Leicester old toy and antique store' caught my eye! Where did this shop come from :O haha! I thought to myself ' Oh please let there be ponies....please..' then, i saw in the shop window, a MLP box! It was a show stable! Needless to say I literally RAN and pushed past people to get into the store lol. There was a cabinet full of ponies .  However, to my dismay, i'd already got them all! haha! typical. But its so rare to see My little Pony G1's around i was so relieved that they still were knocking about It made me happy...i think this store will see more of me

Wow, what a great find! I wish I could find more G1s.

awww, nice find! I wish we had a store like this!
(...or maybe not... my wallet would cry in agony as I own almost none of these girls )

Oh, how thrilling!  I've only had a couple of these types of shop finds and I always feel like I should buy the ponies they have (even if I don't need them) to encourage them to stock more.

That is too cool! Were they asking reasonable prices for them? Typical that they would've been all doubles for you though!

That's awesome. Baby Bridesmaid is totally exclusive. Good Weather and Tutti Frutti are UK exclusive too. Even if you have them already I'm sure you could trade them in the arena for ponies you want. They're totally worth picking up if you do any trading or selling to the US and they're cheap enough.

Wow how much fun!

Ooh, I know how you feel! A similar store called Retro Distortion opened up in my hometown, so I make a point of visiting whenever I'm in town to visit my parents. The neatest thing I found there is a Morning Glory Flutter with her sticker stuck to her side, and a Locket in almost perfect condition.

I was thinking that but, the prices they were asking were a tad steep. £10 for most of them when i usually only spend half that on my ponies..(im a bargain hunter ) But I may just pay them another visit and buy a couple if peeps are interested in trading!

OOOOOOOOOOO Awesome! I wish there was an "old toy" store here!  The antique shops hardly ever have toys!

[little.fox]

May I ask what town this is?

I love Baby Bridesmaid, I'd certainly pay £10 for her if I didn't already have her!

[Desert Rose]

That is so awesome! =) Totally jealous Wish they opend up a store like that nearby here. Would be so cool to be able to stroll down to the shop to look at and maybe pick up some G1's!

[Mapago]

OMG, I soo wish we had a store like that here. Yard sales and flea markets are nonexistent here

[Aienhime]

Oh wow that's awesome!!! I would've gone mad with joy

So cool! There are no antique or old toys shops around here. There is a toys and collectors fair this weekend though *rubs hands together in anticipation*
