Nirvana Dry Spell

[Leopard_Print_Unicorn]

I'm after a Brazil Heart Throb in good condition...but  haven't seen one since a while.

And I haven't bought any Argis since a while.
I only collect Argis in MOC condition what the search make harder then looking for the loose ones...

Oh yeah and I'm still draming of the Moc Greek Yelloow Moondancer I passed on a few years ago... ahhh!!

All the ones I want (except Polly, who is out of my price range right now) are Argies. I don't need them MOC, but they are some of the rarer Argies. Maybe once I get a job and have money to spend, some will pop up and it will all work out

yup! def dry spell over here!! but my wishlist is pretty small so i think the rest of my collecting career is gonna be one big dry spell lol!

I notice this too. Hardly any nirvanas of any country on ebay except over priced ones in sad shape or I already own them. I have half of my want list, but still lots more I'm missing. Hopefully after the summer, things will pick up again. Gotta try to save some money between now and then. Easier said than done, lol.

yeah I can't stand not being able to find anything... not that I need to spend the money, but for the last two years I've been collecting I've constantly been buying, so going through a "dry spell" is taking a toll on me

I think my wishlist has about 10 or so nirvana's, which you wouldn't think is that small but I guess it is... dang buying everything I wanted.

I've been scouring ebay out of boredom and all i find are FiM items

I haven't been looking and all the ones I *know* I want are out-of-bounds til I gets me a rich husband or win the lottery cos I'm outta work for a while hehehehe

on the other side, it's a dry spell when it comes to selling too..

No one seems to want the nirvanas offered either *stares at Vennie Starshine, Spanish Sugarberry and Italian Butterjack*  - these ladies seem to have to stay with me forever

Just saying - it's not only dry for buyers.  .  .

I would LOVE Spanish Sugarberry since Sugarberry is one of my favorite ponies. However cash is kind of stopping me at the moment from buying Nirvanas

@ Desert Rose , at least shipping would be cheap

My wishlist is also small, so not many additions for me this year, but there have been a couple. As the wishlist gets smaller, the prices go up though!

I second what Tiggums6 said...

  I'm in the same boat!

I know! I looked at your price guide vs. what I have seen a couple of them sell for and wow! That being said, I haven't seen too many Argies on e-bay or around the Arena that are on my wishlist lately, and I don't know of anywhere else to look for them. It seems like when I was after the babies, there were a lot of the rarer adults out there that now I wish I hadn't missed!

i know what you mean... before i decided to collect "all argies" i was just focussing on the rainbow ones and missed out on a few that i *Still* havent seen up for sale since.... and that was like 3 years ago!

is there a particular argie you're thinking of? i try to keep my prices up to date but i do miss some occasionally

oh maybe you're thinking of posey??
that one was actually a variant.. she has red flowers instead of pink... very purdy, never seen/heard of her until that auction
thats why she sold for so much more than normal posey
im hoping somone here won her so we can see more pics! and maybe some comparison ones too

There was a Novia up for over $200, I think. She was a really pretty one, though. Makes me wish I could have afforded her. There's an Argie right now going for over $300 (can't remember who), and I can't think off the top of my head of what the others were.

I like the Paseos and the Peachy variants, and I know I saw at least a few Paseos and a yellow/orange peachy variant that I passed up when I was only looking for babies. I have never seen the blue and white Peachy for sale anywhere, though.

Edit: Ok I searched through the completed sales on e-bay and I couldn't find the $200 Novia, but there was one for like $159 or best offer (I don't know how to tell how much the buyer actually paid). Also looked like a couple of babies went much higher than expected too.
