I had the day off today and while I waited for an appointment I was browsing Facebook marketplace when I came across a new add.

It had a lot of G4 ponies but I spotted a G1 AJ and a BBE Shady, then TAF Baby Love Melody. I have never in my life left an appointment so quick I felt like I had won a pony lottery and surely it was too good to be true. Upon arrival I saw the bag full of ponies and left my money as we had discussed, and took the bag to my car. Then there she was in MINT condition. I was in love with a little plastic pony. One of my “secret” grail babies in my hands for an insane deal.

Best part is I also got more ponies I do actually need for my collection. So that was a bonus. But I never thought I would own Baby Love Melody in 1000 years, let alone locally.

What an incredible find! Big congrats!
 
How cool is that! SO far Marketplace has been a bust for me, but I keep lookin'. One day, I will find gold.
 
That's fantastic! Gives me hope that there are still deals to be found! Big congrats!!!

Honestly, looking at the sales on FB has become part of my daily routine. I usually check in the morning and afternoon, on weekends sometimes a bit more or less. Kinda bad I know but it’s just become a habit of mine which is why I see them so frequently. FB has also become a way I chat with co-workers about daily things we need to know about patients and stuff so I have to check messages frequently... sometimes a girl wonders off to look for pretty things. :$
 
Dang that’s some luck! In my area there is hardly ponies to be found. I try the FB marketplace and nothing, if I do they are super overpriced for just bait ponies.
