When you sell a pony...

[Pleyone]

I´ve never sold a pony. I don´t have many duplicates plus I just... can´t (At least for the moment). I love them all! Regarding to this, I sometimes think myself like a Black Hole.

Phew, good to know I'm not the only one and that - if I am crazy - I'm in good company

[gabumon]

a little but I know the people I'm selling to with treat them nicely  (or I'm naive enough to think so)

*looks at drawer of doubles which need to be on ebay*...nope dont know what you mean at all

Sometimes.

 If they're doubles that I didn't get attached to in the first place, then no.  But if they've been sitting in my collection for awhile, especially my g1s, then you should assume I'm pretty attached.

I don't have many issues after I sell them or mail them off, because I've managed to make it past the guilt and I know she's off to a good home where some tender hearted pony lover is excitedly waiting by their mail box; the anxiety comes in when I try to build a trade list.

Even if I have another one in better condition, even if I don't really like her but she came in a lot, even if I need the money or space, or given the choice I'd trade her for someone I want more - once I'm holding a pony in my hands my internal dialogue starts going nuts... "I can't get rid of her, I *NEEDS* this pony!"

That's when the trouble begins...

I have quite an attachment to ponies (or any toys in general, really). That's why I put the ponies I am to sell kind of away from me and normal daily view until I've sold them xD Otherwise... it will happen what happened with Lily Lightly - I will just have to keep the pony to myself !

[ZennaBug]

I always had a hard time getting rid of toys, even as a kid.  If it has a face, I always feel guilty getting rid of it.

I sent one of my Little Flitters overseas to help with a swap box for a friend who needed cheering up.  It was incredibly hard, took me almost a week to bite the bullet and pack the box.  Before she went, I gave her a full trip to the spa and told her over and over that it wasn't because I didn't love her or because she wasn't pretty.  It was because she was one of my prettiest that she needed to go and help a friend feel better.  I felt so ridiculous, but she looked so sad when I took her away from the others (who all went to the pony spa too, to ease my guilt).

I'm selling two of my dolls right now and I can't even bear to look at them because I feel like I'm abandoning them. 

  Yup, I am officially nuts.

[kellyponyfeathers]

Usually not, but I do have a handful of extras that I don't really need anymore, but can't bring myself to sell because I'm attached to them. I'm going to use them for things like modeling pony wear and displaying with the Paradise Estate (which is so huge it really needs to be displayed with a bunch of ponies, but of course it didn't come with any of its own). That way the mintiest one will be the official display pony, but the other one will still have a job too.

I've only ever sold ponies to arena members, and I find knowing for sure that they're going to a loving home pretty much stops any anxiety I might get

[Pleyone]

Phew, good to know I'm not the only one and that - if I am crazy - I'm in good company

haha! That´s for sure! 
You guys are terrible. Awww... I love this site...

[Rainbowjuice]

I tend to get that way with my customs. I'm usually so proud of them when they're done I'm a little broke hearted to send them off. At least with them I know they're going somewhere they'll be loved.

Overseas shipping makes me anxious and I do panic that the poor ponies will be lost. So until I receive correspondence from my buyers telling me they arrived I'm all "NO PONY! I'm sorry!!!!!"

Haha.
