A few top picks. I think i’m really hoping for a golden & black themed one 🙂 The all-green themed one also highly interests me!Got one! 😀 I didn’t expect these to show up so soon. Looking forward to the class photo to get a glimpse of all their designs 🙂
Wow, such an amazing surprise. I can’t believe I won, he’s beautiful! Thanks very much Melody!!
I’ll certainly post photos when he arrives 🙂That is true but comparing $130 and $300 makes it not very reliable research. The difference in value is more than double.
But that’s just putting words into the non-posting buyers mouths that some of them would be happy spending $300. We have 0 evidence at all for any of them spending that amount.
90 may be able to sell for $300- noone knows unless we actually get confirmation of people willing to pay $300.
The current price of baby GB unis is a BIG difference to $300. I and obviously 200 others can afford $130, but $300 is different and just too much of a money risk for me.If there are 90 people willing to pay that, that is good for windstone. For the rest of us buyers its just another product out of reach and windstones market shrinks.
I think there is just some over-exaggeration about what percentage of people in this community can actually afford $300 on a grab bag. There are of course some people who can and will- but already we’ve seen a few people mention they can’t if this happens to be the new store price.
I consider myself on a good salary with very few bills to pay and no mortgage- still I can’t justify $300 out of my pay for a grabbag either. $300 is a lot of money! Especially when I may not even get a design I like. I don’t think it’s wise limit a customer base.
I honestly think part of the reason people are willing to pay crazy prices on eBay is because so few are even offered for re-sale. Less product- more demand, higher prices.
If 80 unicorns from the last candycorn batch went on eBay I have a hard time believing people would be bidding over $300 for each of them.
There are certainly people in the community who can afford to take so much out of their wage for a windstone- but it is difficult to tell how many when there are very few unis resold in comparison to being bought at store-price.It’s also been brought up before but people are happy to pay more for a re-sell when they can see exactly what they’re getting.
besides resell can’t be a factor, there’s always people who will pay anything to get what they want on ebay despite how high it goes…..
Agreed, it seems the latest batch havent been reselling for much more than $200 anyway. I’ve seen 2 end less than $200.
I would personally prefer to see natural horse colours- not only because they’re my favourite but also because they’re simpler and may keep prices more reasonable for most of us.
