Hey pony peeps, looking to get some other opinions on price ideas for a couple rare items.
Through a friend of a friend I ended up actually meeting a new member looking for help with selling her childhood ponies @spino3 came to my house this past weekend with her tote of MLPs looking for help and advice.
She has about 20 ponies, mostly common ones but most are in great condition and then she pulls this box out that makes my heart skip a beat LOL
Mail order complete set of collector ponies, each MIP with original shipping box. And a MIP with box Baby Lucky!
My immediate inclination was maybe 300.- 500. for the collectors set but you guys know how crazy the pony market can be, what do you think? I looked for SOLD listings on eBay to confirm my thoughts. Closest references I could find were a MIP Butterscotch sold for 35. and 2 poor condition MIP Mintys for 21. but then in a shocking turn of events I saw a listing for the whole set MIP with box sold a month ago for 300.00, but that was a BIN, I have to wonder what an auction would go for???
And then there is Lucky, I was originally thinking 150?? But when I him out to photograph tonight I see he does have age spots starting on his face so I think that will diminish his value.
What do you guys think, I know there are some current MIP collectors listed for 150-200 each but those are BIN that are probably not likely to sell anytime soon for that price based on what I found in the sold listings.
And just FYI, I will be posting up pony sales this weekend, or next weekend the latest for her. She decided to leave her herd with me to handle selling so keep an eye out for some sales coming soon
Here is some eye candy;
