Shopgoodwill.com Have you USA people seen this?
« on: January 07, 2014, 04:54:27 AM »
I heard of this online so went and had a peek and they have some interesting stuff on there. If you are in the USA this might help you find what you need!!!

They have big lots of  ponies and other merch

You're right about that.  They have lots of great lots with great ponies.  The problem is the price they charge for shipping is so outrageous it usually doesn't make the lot worth buying.  It's a shame.

Yep quite a few do know about this. Sadly their shipping is pretty hefty :(

Goodwill also sells on ebay too :)

They USED to have great deals- but often the lots go for more than ebay even, and shipping is very expensive.

Also the pictures are horrible, and usually disguise serious regrind and the like.  I think it's a good source if you are looking for a load of baits, otherwise ... use with care.

Having seen some of their ebay lots, I agree often they seem to run high [or are priced to start high]. I am all for raising money for a good cause but I think they get away with some things which other sellers would not - such as not being entirely accurate in descriptions. A proceed with caution and be prepared not to get a bargain sound like good warnings to me.

I have bought from them once.  It was fun to get a whole bunch of ponies in one go but the shipping cost was insane.

I did get a good deal on there once, though. They had a Dream Castle listed, but they didn't know what toy line it was from, so it didn't have MLP in the title. The bidding ended at $6, and the shipping was $14, I think, which is decent for a Dream Castle.

I think my mom has also bought ponies for me from there that were in auctions with trolls. Kind of weird, but she said that after selling back the trolls she got back the money she paid originally, so it paid off for her.

  They don't really do descriptions, and basically say so in their auction listings.  Also the handling fees bug me- 4.00, really? When you already charge 14.00 for shipping?  Not that careful looking can't get you a good deal- I got a beautiful lot of ponies from there once.  It's great if you love to clean up ponies and can get a lot cheaply enough that a few of them being baits is ok.

I've also heard of people not getting the lot pictured (or only part of it), so I'd proceed with extreme caution buying from Goodwill.  It's a shame.   :huh:

I bought some large lots of g3 off of them, and even with shipping worked out well...but I agree that the shipping is insane. I think I recently looked at a g1 set of like 6 ponies and they were charging like $16 shipping plus $4 handling...so no way....

i've bought a few lots off of them, and if you combine the shipping and get quite a few lots it's a great deal. won two huge lots for 10$ but paid 20$ in shipping and handling. luckily at least 3 ponies can be sold to make the cost zero. so no worries.

I've only won one auction from them. It's listed under Item ID # 14705178. Still working on cleaning all of the ponies up.

I've looked at them a few times, but shipping is usually super expensive for me.  Most of the lots I've been interested in come out of the Pacific Northwest to shipping is crazy.
