Could someone do me the biggest favor and tell me what the dimensions of Celestia's box are?  She is the bigger of the two, right?  Just want to check on something...

The box is 7 1/2 in. in height and a just slightly over 9 in. wide.  Celestia and Luna's boxes are the same size, btw.  ^.^

Since Hot Topic's "we'll answer your messages within 24 hours" -promise (on the online store) is pretty much all for nothing, I sent them pm through Facebook and hopefully I finally get some kind of answer about what the heck is going on with my order.

Wow. That's a great find. Too bad they are so much. :(

When the spitfire glitters first came out I remember a friend saw her in a comic shop. The owner wanted $90. She thought it was too much but then second guessed herself and went back the next day. The evening before the one sold on evilbay for $600. The comic shop owner had raised the price to $600. This was a pony he got straight from funko. The glitter never sold at that price but he had it listed that high for quite a while.

This is just to say- I'm sure glitter AJ will come down. But she is a beauty! ;)

The glitter AJ is so cute!  I have no idea how people can ask $600 for a sparkly pony.  I know it's in demand but.. come on!

One thing I've learned with the glitters is that it's always best to wait, even if waiting can be hard.  I know people were paying ludicrous amounts for Spitfire and Bon Bon, but I managed to get Spitfire for $50 and Bon Bon for $90 (which was great in comparison to her other eBay prices, but still much more than I'll even pay again).  All my others have been at retail price or under $40.

I remember when glitter Spitfire was going over for $600... craziness.  The bids were starting out low, too!  I can't believe people have that much money to drop on a pony that eventually became available in stores.  :blink:

So I was just looking at glitter Celestia on eBay and uh... people are actually paying $40+ for a regular Celestia?  I don't get it.  :drunk:

First order arrived. Love them seriously they are amazing, all decent paint jobs from first glance, no broken tails or anything out of a ton of ponies, no glitter Lunaa, but three glitter Celestias?! Glad I got my Luna on ebay, but I needed an upgrade hopefully I can find one in store. thrilled to be complete just need a glitter Luna upgrade and I'm happy :)

How on earth did you not get caught in Hot Topic's new no bulk buyers rule?

I wish, I could get glitters with $40-60, because after shipping and taxes it's usually $80+ (importing sucks), which is why I don't actively collect them.

They look great. I really like them. Though I still do think Luna's wings are a bit too long.
It was torture seeing them in my local stores and not being able to buy them knowing my order was in the mail.

Congrats to those who got glitters so far!
I actually feel relieved right now that I won't be hunting them ^^; but I wish good luck to those who are searching.

haha always a fun visit :) they all say the names on the box too Celestia Vinyl and Luna Vinyl.

Anyways @Galactica they allow bulk orders, they always have. That new stuff though about no returns and stuff doesn't mater to me since I don't return them, although I don't like how it says they can cancel your order, this might be my last time doing this, its a crap ton of work.

I called the store about my packages and there were there already ,it was kinda weird ,it only took a day to arrive ??
the order was shipped on 12/16 and 12/17
there were no glitters  but an order of 5 of each came in a big box and the tape had fallen off, a different manager this time came and told me the box arrived like that and that she had gone through it to make sure it was all there , it was weird because they are always are sealed, the other smaller order was incomplete, she said there was nothing she could do, I had to call the 1 800 number and get them re shipped or refunded,I called in and the rep said she did not show any stock in the system for them anymore  to re ship them ,so she refunded  2 incomplete orders I received ,
the weird part is that the invoice did not show any back ordered items on the slip,it looked  like the order was shipped complete and the store tampered with the big box and might have taken items from  my box and they could have been glitters Is what I think or maybe just regulars, who knows what happened but next time around I will ship them to a different store ,I just had it with that one,Their Facebook page did get back to me and got my phone number for a DM to call me .
but at this point I'm just updated about their policies so there is not much I can say,but to ask that they check that store ,they are doing many things that stink.

wow that is horrible! :( it does sound like they tampered with your order! If they were going to go through it, they should have notified you about it beforehand.
Thank you so much for the adoptable, Corona! :D
