THANK YOU FOR ALL YOUR HUGS, GOOD THOUGHTS AND WONDERFUL SHOULDERS TO CRY ON…
MY HUBBY HAS DISOWNED ME FOR EVEN CONSIDERING MY WINDSTONES LEAVING THE HOUSE…AND TO TOP THAT OFF, THERE HAVE BEEN NO OFFERS UPON THEM, SO…THE SALE HAS BEEN CANCELED
At least I do not have to go back upon my word of offering for sale to anyone that was interested…
We are offering our horses for sale, the broodmares have been green broke so they are capable of being turned into riding horses, the younger mares are ready to be broke. I have found buyers for a couple of them so far. There will be no going back to the broodmare & baby business, the horse market sucks and will most likely never return to what it once was. Now if I can only convince people to quit breeding every mare they own, some of my associates and friends still have babies from 2009, new ones for 2010 and have bred their horses for new ones for 2011…What part of not being able to sell your horses do they not get? Anyway, it’s the prices that is killing the market. Just in case anyone ever wanted to buy a horse? Right now you can get a really nice pedigreed registered horse for dirt cheap.
Anyone receiving an odd message, forgive me, I do not navigate the “PM” system very well on the forum which is why I requested you contact my actual email, SilverPenB, but it’s all ok. I took a members advice and have contacted a temp agency and things are not as bleak as they once were…
You guys are the greatest! THANK YOU!

…THE SALE HAS BEEN CANCELED
I have been unemployed since July (the place I went to work (auto repair shop) shut down due to lack of business 6 months afterwards)…I have skills, experience and knowledge as a bookkeeper, admin assistant, customer service rep & office manager and I CANNOT SEEM TO GET HIRED AROUND HERE. I am getting nervous and I am starting to downsize any and everything that my family does not need. My husband and I are fighting to the point of where I feel like I am done…
We have closed our broodmare barn, closing the horse business and have offered our mares for sale, and now I am offering my small collection of Windstone Dragons for sale. I am telling you guys now, next Sunday I am putting them on Ebay. I have to figure out what I need to ask of them, I really do not know…
They are all in great condition as they were when I purchased them. Some have the tags, a couple do not. We do not smoke, BUT we have DUST…some of these came to me dusty and they will leave me dusty… I really never knew this day would come that I would have to let them go so I have no boxes…BUT I will pack the heck and eight dollars out of them. Even though they are leaving me, they mean a great deal to me. Please email me, SilverPenB@aol.com for more photos or any questions.
Sorry the pics are huge, I have to figure out how to downsize those as well…UPDATE got rid of the pics so not to take up much space…

I was unemployed for a month with ZERO income-luckily I got by that month selling Windstones and My Little ponies lol I hope all goes well for you and your family and you are able to rebuild your Windstone collection and horse business one day.
October 19, 2010 at 11:38 pm #829381I’m so sorry to hear that this has happened to you, and everyone else in this boat. 😥 Lord knows I’ve been straggling too close to this edge in recent times myself, I have just been fortunate enough to find some locally available pieces to sell instead of my own. If it helps you, I just sold a white emp (also mint) for $450, and had a tentative offer on a damaged emerald OW for $225. Here’s a link to the Ravnheart database to help you figure approximate prices (it’s what I’ve used). It gives eBay prices for a few years and their averages on pretty much everything. There’s a dropdown on the right to select condition; click on the item to pull up the high/low/average prices on ebay for it. http://ravnheart.com/windstone/index.php
