New Orphans arrived
« on: November 14, 2015, 07:01:59 AM »
I have a major soft-spot for "not perfect" ponies! So I often end up buying ponies with mane and tail cuts and minor imperfections.

a few weeks ago I saw someone selling a Baby Bowtie for under $5 and listing her as "custom bait" because her one ear had a cut. I was really annoyed by this because other than that she looked perfect to me! And because she wasn't sold in the US this made me xtra angry that someone would just throw her out as "custom bait". So I ended up buying her in the end XD When she arrived I found her head also turns, but it seems this is from the glue deteriorating, and not from a throat cut.

I also picked up a Kiss & Tell who looked in very rough condition. But again, a non-US pony, so the $5 seemed like a good price regardless of what she looked like. She has tiny puncture wounds all over her but otherwise cleaned up beautifully! I'm so happy with her!

Lastly, Princess Crystal that I got for under $2. Obvious tail and mane cut but otherwise is perfectly fine! She has a large "S" written in permanent marker on her stomach I was not told about when I bought her but it should come off easily. Otherwise, she's really pretty! And I love Space-themed ponies a lot!

These were all from separate sellers, but all in all this batch (not including shipping) came to $12.

But that's gonna have to be it for pony buying for now. I have these adult expenses for the first time I need to pay attention to and my mom is dismayed that I'm spending money on toys (and video games) when I've just opened a medical aid plan and a life policy I need to start paying for ^^;

I'd rather just buy more plastic horses tbh.  :lol:

Congratulations! I can totally relate with being drawn to flawed ponies, it's a good feeling when you get to adopt those that might otherwise be overlooked and give them some love. You've done a great job of cleaning them up, they look lovely! :heart:

I'm sure they're happy to be adopted.  :)  And I can totally relate to wanting to buy ponies instead of paying for more "important" things.   ^.^

I think ponies with fun quirks are the best!  They were definitely loved!   You should check out this thread anytime you feel like a pony's condition is just too awful:

Thanks so much guys! :heart: they're looking good on my shelf :D

and ClawleenMeowlen, when I saw the photos on the fore sale page I thought it was a pity her tail was cut so badly but having her in person it's really grown on me XD It gives her some great attitude I think!
