This pony's story is different than most. I didn't buy her off eBay. I did not find her at a thrift store or garage sale.
I was in one of my local high end second hand shops and I had just bought some My Little Pony G3 DVD's and when at the register, the cashier asked me if I was really into ponies. I told her about my My Little Pony room and showed her some pictures. She then proceeds to tell me a little bit about her own collection and how she has some really rare ponies. I told her if she ever wanted to sell any, I would be very interested. She then tells me she needs to save up money for a new phone and wants to find a buyer for her Rapunzel. My ears perked up at that name and I exchanged phone numbers with her so I could get some photos of this beauty and see how much she wants for her. A few days pass and I finally get a text from her with the photos. She even had her pictured with one of her original I LUV U clips. She was in mint condition, let alone this lady was the original owner- she was the one who traded in her points for this Rapunzel. I wanted this pony so bad, but I knew how much she can go for so I was really hesitant about how much I should offer. I ended up telling her I could do $150 as that was all the spare cash I had on me at the time. I personally couldn't afford more than that.
SHE AGREED. So today I went back to the store I met her in and did what most would view as a drug deal. I handed her the envelope and she handed me the pony. We went our separate ways.
GUYS. $150.00. Just this last week a Rapunzel sold on eBay for $450.00 and there's even a new listing someone is trying to sell for $999.99. I still can't believe I have this beautiful girl in my room. I keep walking in just to make sure she's still there. She even has her original factory curls. I litterally blew all of my good luck on this one pony. And let me tell you:
it was worth it.Here she is!
