what would you do if a little kid had a rapunzel, mimic, rare nirvana or any other crazy expensive grail clutched in their hands in a park or a public area and they put it down next to you on a bench to play in the playground. there is no one else in sight except for their mom who is farther away from you. what would you do?
 
I’d be slightly envious and probably joke with the mom and or child depending on how friendly they seem. (I hate social interaction with strangers, so there’s a high probability of me doing nothing too.)
 
I'm a blabbermouth. I'd tell the mom so she could try to swap the pony out with a cheaper one and she could sell it. I hang out where poor people are, being poorish, so I'd figure they'd like knowing they had something valuable.
 
I'm with foo foo. I would let the parent have a little nudge regarding the value of the pony, in case he/she didn't know, and otherwise be with LaW. They are toys. I play with mine.
 
Honestly I would tell the parents what kind of toy the kid is really playing with. I wouldnt try to swap or trade for the toy because it is theirs to decide to do something with.

Wow, I'm the only pony collector here going to the pony hot place :devil:
I'd snatch that sucker up, leave a 20.00 and hit the road before you could say Mimic. I'm not lying, if it were a really rare pony, I'm talking Rapunzel price, yeah, I'd do it and I'd consider it a teachable moment to never leave behind the toys you love.......cause Ginger's gonna get 'em!
 
I probable just move along I don't like to socialize much and get to nervous to talk to parents.
 
Wait, is the kid cute? I mean, if the kid's cute, that's a game changer. I might take her too. Never too late to raise another evil rabbit to loose upon an unsuspecting world, y'know!

I picture you in a top hat saying "Nyahahaha! No one need EVER know!" as you whoosh off into the night with a whirl of your black cape!

And honestly, they'll think they made the lotto probably. No one lets their child play with a 1K pony. 20 is pure profit for someone who probably thinks the pony is junk.
 
All I gotta say is, as a child I had many ponies and NEVER did I loose a single one, I still have them all to this day because they were my favorites and I kept up with my toys. Not to say I never lost a toy but they were ones I probably wasn't that infatuated with. Accountability is something we all must learn but I would never snatch it out the hands of a child who was playing with it and obviously loved it. I'd probably be like, hey, wanna come over and play in my pony room? And then the cops would be called.....so maybe I am better just stealing the pony and running LOL

I admire you for this. Like, I’d like to say I would take it... but if I clearly KNEW it was a kids and the mom was there I couldn’t. I have horrible guilt if I did and it would eat me alive every time I looked at the pony.

But if I saw them in the park and I didn’t see anyone around, I would for sure snatch them and be over the moon happy.
 
My honesty probably lies in the fact my leg is broke and I can't outrun an angry kindergartner. Plus, those kids bite.
