Congratulations what a fabulous find!! 
Are these the ponies on ebay? I saw 4 taf babies listed this morning.
One day I will own them all lol

Ahh, I wish I could buy one from you! I can understand not being able to afford keeping them, though. Even if I found Rapunzel at thrift for a dollar, I wouldn't be able to keep her, even if it was my only chance to get her. I'd need the money more than the pony. (At least I assume that's what you mean!!)

Wow! What a find!

Oh man you nabbed a Dancing Butterflies in that haul, out of all the Twice as Fancys she was my fave. Lucky ducky!

If I was going to keep one, she would be my choice.  She is just so preciously cute.  However, all 4 are now sold (each went for $80).  Sugarberry and Sweet Tooth are on their way to Belgium.  Dancing Butterflies and Up Up and Away will be heading to the other side of the U.S. on Friday.

Those prices are why I would not have been able to keep them at this time.  I certainly would not have dropped that kind of scratch on them myself, so even though I paid a grand total of $2.16 for them, I was in possession of $320 worth of Ponies.

I am actually currently not actively collecting.  I already have a rather extensive G1 collection accumulated over more than a decade and a half.  However, I am not trying to catch 'em all, and currently don't have room to display more than a select few.  So the herd is packed away in a couple large boxes in the closet.  Once I get to the point where my student loans are wiped out, and I have found my self employed niche that will allow me to live happily ever after in a larger place, I will start collecting again.  And by that time, prices should be crashed considerably.

Until then though, my life is sell sell sell (4 eBay accounts, plus eCrater, Etsy, eBid, and Bonanza).
