Hey guys, as promised, my last griffin will be up on eBay this evening. This is the pink-eyed one and even though I love him, I just love my dragons more. 🙂 Need the space and need the cash for some additional dragons, so just giving you all a head’s up!!
Here’s the link: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&ih=003&sspagename=STRK%3AMESE%3AIT&viewitem=&item=130052572020&rd=1&rd=1
Thanks guys…will leave this post up for a little while and see what I can rile up. After that, I may just sell it to someone here. 🙁 Dang! Really wanted a young brown, mint w/box. Oh well, I’ll continue to browse evilBay! 🙂
Yeah, I know the browns are VERY rare with the box, but they ARE out there. Just poking the weeds to see if anyone has one. No worries…breath is held. 😉
Aloha and welcome! Ahhh…you have entered an entirely delicious realm….all about your obsession…Windstone. (well, it’s most of our obsessions anyway)
Sell ponies, whippetluv? Are you a fellow Painted Ponies collector as well?
*sigh* I collect too many things and have too little space. 🙂
Oh no!! I’m sorry SPark…don’t give up yet though…sometimes people are REALLY slow. Very weird, but hopefully that’s the case instead of the alternative. I have that piece (w/o the necklace), but it’s touched up by the front leg. So, I’ve been in the market for a mint one as well and was watching the one you bought…BUT, I missed the end. 🙄
Most people don’t know there were two versions of the baby peg. 🙂
Thanks skigod…I will see if anyone has one with a box first and if not, then I may just trade for a mint one without the box. I guess I can still keep my eyes peeled on eBay as well, but it’s always a hit or miss. Pugmama had one for sale, but we all know how ‘ify’ of a seller she/he is, not to mention the smoke smell. Ugh.
Ok guys, I bought one extra curl dragon for this very reason…and as a way for a forum member who missed the eBay posting to get one. 😉 Does anyone out there have a mint condition (w/box) young brown dragon willing to trade?? I know that coming from a forum member, if they say it’s mint w/box, I know it’s the truth. 8) And I REALLY, REALLY want a mint condition one with original box. Understand the sizes differ and the brown is retired, but at least the russet is limited production, right? *dangles carrot* Let me know!!!
Ok, here is my experience..and since I sell a lot of Painted Ponies, I’ve pretty much run the gambit.
1.) You can file a claim with the post office as the sender OR the recipient. The only thing you MUST have is the box with the damaged item and an insured tracking sticker MUST be on the box. You don’t even have to have the receipt. What will happen is this:
A.) You check on the form whether the sender or receiver is supposed to get the refund.
B.) The post office will send both parties a letter requesting proof of the insurance (receipt) and proof of payment (i.e. PayPal receipt)2.) Once the post office receives both items (regardless if they are coming from the sender or receiver), the claim will be processed. HOWEVER, Nirvanacat is right, there is a time limit.
3.) IF the box does not have a blue sticker, it’s not insured and you just got scammed. (PayPal will be your only recourse)
4.) You can insure packages internationally, however, they have to go Global Priority or Global Express. There are different rules for the airmail, I believe.
I had to go through the entire process with someone who sent me a *surprise* busted Emperor packed with *get this* three newpaper sheets and one layer of bubble wrap. No extra boxes, no peanuts. That thing slid all over the place and looked like popcorn when I received it. I think that’s about the third time in my life I cried. 🙂 j/k
All in all, the post office is very helpful. As long as all the paperwork is received, the refund usually arrives about two to three weeks later.
Ruffian…I think the seller was a jerk and didn’t insure it. May their shoes have spiders in them and may someone steal all their Windstones. 🙂
