What should I pay for this lot?
« on: August 13, 2012, 07:59:00 AM »
So, I was looking on Craigslist for MLP and came across a post in a city nearby.
There is about 10 ponies, 8 are G1s and 2 are fakies. (There would be like 5 duplicates for me)
There are clothing and accessories, a salon, pony stable...
I'm debating on buying it, just not sure how much I should offer for it.

So, ideas?

i would contact the seller and ask what they are thinking on them for a price.. and if it sounds fair go for it. if not then go a bit lower. I would say g1's $1-5 is a good deal.. and plus you get playsets and accessories. maybe $40-50 depending on who and what is in there. Low ball price maybe $35.

Oooh, there we go!  I probably wouldn't go over $35 or so on it. The ponies look a bit beat up. It's also hard to tell which accessories are there.

I'd go maybe $40. The ponies actually look like they have messy hair, but not frizzy, suggesting more gentle play. If the playsets are near complete its a great find. All I ever find are empty shells of buildings.

You've got accessories and pamphlets. That's a lot of stuff. If they even say 50 I'd jump on it.

I'd probably pay $25-35 for them if they were local.

They're about an hour and a half away. I'd have to go pick them up, I'm sure. I'll offer 25 and see what they say.

Thanks everyone for the opinions! (And the bump! :D )

EDIT: I offered 20 instead. (I'm cheap!)

I'd go $40, but I don't have either of those playsets, so that would be the big find for me  =)

Personally I probably would have gone with $50 because of the playsets, they even still had the box for the stable, which I think is pretty awesome. But if you can get it for $20 more power to ya'!

I agree $40-50 for a "local lot" would be about right - its the balance between the playsets, accessories and the fact the ponies look a little hard living :)

What you save on shipping playsets like that alone is worth it.

Good luck!

I think about $40 - 50, really depends on the seller. You should contact them, as it matters what they want for it.
