Taking a break from online toy shopping

February 17, 2009 | By Juliana Heng In Money matters, Toy updates |

After my recent purchases of various exclusive My Little Pony figures over a short period of just a few months, I sort of ‘blew a hole’ in my Paypal account. Therefore I need to take a break now from further online toy shopping to allow time for my ‘Play’ funds to ‘heal’.

My Want List of Exclusive My Little Pony are just left with 2 ponies (’07 Super Pony and Bay Breeze), 1 of which is a replacement for my current defective one, while the other is now too expensive to chase after. If I even want to get a Bay Breeze pony, perhaps I’ll do a full or partial trade for her. I don’t mind getting a loose one, as long as she is in mint condition!

Meanwhile a replacement ‘07 Super Pony has been eluding me time and time again. I missed out a couple of more affordable ones for sale recently on ebay and the pony forums. Maybe I should find some yellow paint to correct the defective painting on mine and make do with her. Hmmm, I’ve got to check if my local pony collector friends, who sometimes customize ponies, have the right shade of paint color. Hopefully they do!
