just remember, they aren't making G1 ponies anymore. if you bait any of them, especially ones that are hard too find, that means there is one less for a collector out there that may never get that pony for their collection.not an argument, just a fact.
I've had that happen... the ponies I was dehairing while chatting...
I just want to go on record and say that I do a price check for every pony I get. But unless its worth is greater than $15, I am like coinoperatedgirl in that its just not valuable enough for me to bother.
I really wouldn't want to buy even a wonderful custom knowing fully well that a HTF and maybe good condition pony has been sacrificed for it. The thought makes me extremely sad.
I know that selling individual ponies every time a "bait" turns out to be too nice is a lot of work, which is why I don't do it. I'd drive myself batty if I tried! I have a box in my apartment for ponies that are too nice to bait but I don't personally want to keep them. I get a lot of common G1s come through my hands that I have no desire to own, but I know other people would like them. And no, most of them aren't worth much, but the monetary value isn't the issue for me so much as the fact that they're ponies in perfectly decent condition that someone else might want. I let that box fill up over time, then look for an outlet to sell them. The pony fair or other meets are my chosen place to offload unwanted ponies - I've never taken a single pony home with me, they always sell. Of course I know not everyone has the ability to do that, but it works out great for me
