Detemining Condition

[LadySiha]

Hi!  Me again, still trying to get more ponies priced at work 

I'm starting to run into a bit of a problem, though.  I've gotten through cleaning the ones that were in rather good condition to begin with, and am starting to get into some more troubled pony condition territory: scratched/fading symbols, body discoloration, mold spots, tail rust, pony cancer, etc....
I've been looking around and wonder if maybe I'm not using the right terminology, but is there a good guide out there for determining what a pony's condition is?  Or some general guidelines that are safe for me to use? 
I know pricing is largely subjective, but being able to determine condition on some of these would help me out a lot!

Thank you!

That is an awesome source

However, I do agree with what you have said about it  being subjective - unfortunately what is one persons neat mint is another's good and someone else's fair is a different collector's poor.

At the end of the day if selling ponies the best and only way to ensure you are fair on your buyers as well as protect yourself/your work as a seller, is to describe any issues accurately. This way people can decide for themselves where they would grade that pony
