Yard Sale Find! Paid .50 each! [Updated salon pics 5.19.13]
« on: May 18, 2013, 04:11:45 PM »
I have NEVER found any G1 ponies at Yard Sales, but I went out to a couple of yard sales today and found these beautiful girls!  They all need some cleaning up so I'm posting their "before" pictures, sending them to the salon, and I will post their "after" pictures.  Here is who I found:

1. BnG Ringlets (will clean up to Good condition)
2. BnG Bouquet (will clean up to Good condition)
3. Swirly (will clean up to NM or M condition)
4. Molasses (will clean up to NM or M condition - still has original curl)
5. Baby Fleecy (will clean up to MINT condition - her hair is an amazing pink!)
6. NBT Snookums (will clean up to M condition)
7. Tossles (will clean up to M condition)

I couldn't be happier especially with that awesome Baby Fleecy!  And you can't beat .50 cents per pony!

Wow awesome find. I was up at five am to go garage shopping today with my father. I thought I would find something today for sure but had no luck unfortunately :( Congrats it is always the best feeling when you rescue a pony!

Congrats!!!  Two weeks ago I got a huge haul of G3s for $0.50 and was very happy.  But I have had sour luck since.  I really stick with G1 and G4 and only got the G3s because they were so cheap and there was so many.

Excellent finds! I'm extremely jealous. I got my hair done today and on the way home stopped at like 3 yard sales, but no ponies. Some days you do and some days you don't, and I'm happy to know this was a do day for you! :D $3.50 is a great price for those ponies. Thanks a ton for sharing your great find!

'Tis the season for yardsales!
I had better get out there myself and start finding them :)

Crazy to think that we're still finding G1 ponies out there huh? It makes me sad to think that with each passing year they become more and more scarce.. but it kinda makes finding them all the more fun huh?

Nice scores yo! And fabulous price!

Most of these girls have been through the salon and here are their updated pictures.  I couldn't be happier with the way they turned out!

Their tails were still slightly wet, and the others are still way too wet to photograph, but I wanted to go ahead and share.  It's still possible to find awesome ponies at yard sales which is amazing!
