Prices on good quality vs bad quality Greeks

[Tzan19]

I am new collector (with a soft spot for the ponies who have seen better days) and I am just desperate for a Greek nirvana.  Could someone give me a rough estimate of how much I should expect to pay for a Greek earth pony in relatively good condition (loose though) and then a what is a fair price for those in need of TLC ( e.g with haircuts, faded/ bleeding symbols, and marks etc).

Also if there are any members who live in Greece I am visiting Athens later this year and do so quite often to visit my husbands family there. I know the chances are more than likely slim to none but is there anywhere any members no of where I might have a chance of picking up a Greek pony in the wild, and have any of the Greek members ever done so (I was thinking along the lines of flea markets, like the old side of monestaraki)?

I would think $25-$100 depending on condition the Greek ponies are so lovely.

I would ask your husbands family where the flea markets are there are a few Greek members here, so hopefully they may be able to suggest places for you to visit. I do know the hardcore Greek collectors are out first thing looking for ponies

You will find all generations of ponies in Greece so keep your eyes peeled for them too.

Ooooohh thanks for answering, I was beginning to think I had posted in the wrong place/ asked such a ridiculously stupid question that nobody wanted to answer LOL.  100 views with one answer!  Thanks a lot that helps, plus I can maybe go about finding an unloved greek until I can afford a minty one

I had a "well loved" Cotton Candy that I sold for $25. Took me awhile to find a home for her. Maybe keep an eye on ebay too. Sometimes you can find well loved CP Greeks for fairly inexpensive.
Good luck on your search

Ehem...I may have just bought 6 (minty, lemondrop, peachy,cotton candy and bowtie x2) well loved greek ponies for $36 dollars from ebay  ......I was going to ask if i did ok but to be quite honest I dont think i care lol....I cant wait to give them a clean up and love them.

if you look out on ebay you can pick up tlc for dirty cheap, like $10 each. In fact there was a listing for 6 that weren't in that bad condition for a BIN of $50

[Tzan19]

Lol those are what I bought...only at an offer of $36.   It was 2x peachy though and one bowtie I made a mistake before.  I am glad you say they were not too bad condition, I think they will be ok with a clean and a tidy up

[nhal039]

I think you got an awesome deal, peachys symbols are very hard to find like that congrats on your great buy. I really think all the girls are lovely you got

No problem the nirvana forum is slow moving compared to the corral. Sometimes it can take a little time for a reply as often research is required, especially when it comes to price checks

Congratulations on winning that lot! I think you got a great deal I saw that lot and thought it looked great for the price.

Not a silly question at all! (Sorry I didn't reply earlier). That sounds like a good deal for those ponies, even with their flaws At that kind of price, it's hard to go wrong
