Is it just me or is Ebay not nearlyas crazy as it was a few months ago? Seems to me that even fairly common ponies were going for far more than they were worth. There doesn't seemt to be so much activity either, but then again I only look once in a blue moon now ... Have others noticed this trend or is it just me?

It's picked up a bit since November. Once Christmas time rolls around the auctions should be moving quite quickly as those procratinating gift buyers go shopping xD

I actually won a lot of G1s for once and I *never* win ponies on eBay...so maybe. I've seen some stuff still go for a whole lot though. I guess it just depends on what you're looking at.

It's a great time to sell any popular G3's from the books and videos. I just saw a couple of Rainbow Dash (II, I think) sell for $35 and $38 IIRC.

I noticed that last night when I was looking. Things that I think should be going for more are still fairly low, and others...you just never know what people are looking for, though.

Right after Christmas is a good time to sell, as you catch all those with Christmas money going nuts! Then it will settle down for a couple of months until about March. Too many bills come in Jan and Feb!

I have actually noticed when it comes to the ponies, it's less insane. Which is fine by me because I was able to get my Winter Snow and snag more of the winter ponies.

I'm expecting things to pick up soon...I guess I figured they would have already been getting crazy. I wish I could say I've been able to take advantage of some of the amazing deals people have gotten recently, but sadly, it's not the case.
