MLP Checks

[sailorstitch]

Are the MLP checks out of print now? I went to reorder them, but now I can't find them.  I was going to order the check book cover too. 

These are the ones I'm speaking of.

Oh did not even know these existed!

OMG those are awesome, I had no idea they even existed lol. We're they only available in the US?

I have the checkbook cover!     I bought it from someone on the arena about 2 years ago.

I looked for these about 2-3 years ago and couldn't find them then I looked hard and long xD

I didn't even know checks were still in use over there They've been gone here for what, ten years? And even then they were already rarely used.

I doubt they are still available since Hasbro isn't selling ponies in the G3 style anymore. Maybe they will come out with new G4 checks?

I used to have those checks... 2004?! I can't believe it's been so long ago.

Thanks for all the replies. I had a bad feeling that they were out of print when all my search results came up with dead links. I was hoping that since MLP is so hot right now that they'd either a) still be selling these or b) would've upgraded to G4. I'm not even really wanting G4 checks, but I'd take them if somebody made them.

I think I found some Disney checks that I like well enough. There are 5 designs and 3 of them are my top favorite movies: Aladdin, The Lion King and Lilo & Stitch. I can live with that for the next few years. One box can last me 2+ years. When I bought my pony checks I was required to buy at least 2 boxes. Now I wish I had bought more than 2..... I think I bought my pony checks 4-5 years ago. I love the Disney checks that I found. I just REALLY had my heartset on getting more pony checks.

Nienna, it's going to be another generation or two before checks disappear here. There's too many stubbon old people that refuse to touch a computer... like my aunt! If the USA did away with check she wouldn't have any way to pay bills. My aunt won't touch a computer. She says "computers are the work of the devil". I don't think that she believes that. She's just terrified by technology. I pay about half on my bills online, but I still do write checks for some. My mom pays most of her bills by check. She does pay some online or by phone if she running late, but I always have to help her.

Interesting! I didn't know that, I figured it was all cards/internet transferring as it is here. I used to work as a cashier over twelve years ago and we got checks like once every month maybe? We always had to call a supervisor because no one knew how it worked, lol.

For bills, it's pretty much authorising companies to take it out of your checking account or transferring it by yourself through internet banking. Funny how these things differ across the globe

I used to have them! I think they've been out of print for a while now though I still have the address labels

We still have cheques here too They keep talking about phasing them out but there are too many objections and it always ends up getting bumped further into the future. I like my cheques! We dont get fancy ones like you guys in the US do...I would love pony cheques!

Thanks for sharing this post.  I told my partner that they existed and he didn't believe me.

I use checks quite often still, mostly for business. However when I had roommates I always found it easier to write a check since we were renting a house in a town where I had no bank and I refused to have to pay a 5 dollar fee extra to get money out of an atm in town. So my roommates had to deal with checks :p none of them were using checks at all they always worked with cash. But then they banked in town... Which I need some new checks soon I've been eying over the Disney ones! However my bank just declared bankruptcy last month so I'm not sure what's going to happen yet with all of that :/

The only time I use a check is to pay my water bill and my property taxes...and that is because I don't want to pay the fee the local government charges to use the online system....(it is a pretty good chunk of a fee as it is percentage based and for taxes you can imagine...) Pretty much the whole invisible money transfer thing has become too much an thing of ease. Checks were pretty much the same thing, just more steps to it. Always the convenience factor at play lol
