I decided to turn down bidding on the guinea pigs, once it went up to $26.00 too much for me.

I decided to turn down bidding on the guinea pigs, once it went up to $26.00 too much for me. I can't believe it got to $50, I only paid $27 for mine and the one before that ended at $38. Guess I got lucky. hehe. That was the third one in like a month, I'm sure another one will come up soon for you  Hopefully we will see some other 1995 sparkling pets on there ::crosses fingers:: I am happy, I just won the complete paw print club puppy basket with some baby buddies pets, and I am winning that big lot tomorrow And I should be getting a lot or two in the mail this week, I think I am opening a BIN ebay store since I will have so many extra sets. So exciiiiiiited  |

holy yikes! I was planning to bid too, but that is a bit out of my price range.
I have seen that bidder before, always a high, HIGH buyer.
darn...I really wanted to keep some of those sets!... oh well...

hey guys, i think we all wanted that lot. I'm sure "shooting star" was really hoping to get that lot back and resale it too. i wonder who that nitro person is; i never see them put anything out for all of thing they happen to win. maybe later they will. maybe you guys should email that person and tell them that you are really really really interested in some particular sets and make them an offer?
P.s. i didn't even try bidding; i was so confident that misty would win it! i watched it in the last couple of seconds and man, did those bids jump!

Wowzas! I thought bidding on vintage my little ponies was crazy. That Nitro person has outbid me before as well. I was looking at getting that guinea pig set MIP too as I have the set loose, but I'm missing the bottle of water for the water bottle and wanted a MIP set to hang on the wall next to my other MIP's. But I know others on here don't have it at all. Oh well, I'll get one some day. Sorry you didn't win.

that nitro person has outbid me and unicorn also on several previous occasions. I think she makes her high bid like $999 or something so she automatically wins. Seems to have quite a bit of money, doesn't resell any of it. I tried emailing her about the dazzling hair pets but I doubt I'll hear back. so disappointing, i was so excited about having that lot and i would have won otherwise.
For those of you who have been ebaying for a long time, how often do you see 1995 sparkling pets or any dazzling hair pets come up? those are like the only sets I actually want. i just missed a BIN poof and pretty skunk. ::sigh::

I think we all need the sparkling and dazzling pets, I hate how rare they are! I wish they made them in mass!! Some people here have been collecting for years and years and they still don't have certain sets, like the baby ponies. Prices have been getting nutso lately! Seems I can only get the BINs these days!

I've been ebaying for vintage littlest pet shops since late 2002 and even then, prices would get crazy because certain buyers would bid more. I was glad when one who seemed to buy all the lots got suspended (mean, I know lol). I've seen many sparkling pet auctions over the last six years. I got all mine in single auctions. That may be your best chance at getting the sets you want without paying a big amount for an entire lot. It may take longer, but believe me, it is worth it! As long as I've been collecting, I've never been able to find the Brush n' Grow filly set, let alone the horse itself. That baby is the only one that is missing from my filly herd, lol. There must be only 10 of them in the whole world. I'm wondering if she was ever available in the US as the only two people who have her are in Europe.

oh yes, i didn't realize how rare the baby ponies are, so now that i think about it, i think unicorn had a good advantage when she received them as a trade from misty. i thought that they would come up frequently, but i haven't seen any of them even once! i do have baby ponies though, actually awhile back i got lucky and won a lot of 16 sets of the ponies for around $30, great condition, and pretty low traffic. at the time i spent a fortune, but over time i realized as a collector it was a pretty good deal.
and misty, i had no idea you wanted the poof n pretty skunk. i could have sworn that you already had it, as i would have sent you the link if i didn't think you would find it or want it. it wasn't a bad price at all, though.

My biggest problem is that I forget to bid on things so I never end up being around during the auction!
