North Light Wade chestnut Indian Pony MINT and ADORABLE

Description

North Light Wade chestnut Indian Pony MINT and ADORABLE. Condition is "Used". Shipped with USPS Priority Mail.
From my vast and beloved herd of North Lights, this is a later "Wade" version, a charming little pinto Mustang type known as the Indian Pony.  This model will come packed in the original fitted-styrofoam packing; I do NOT, however, still have the outer original North Light Wade box.
I will admit it: I've never met a North Light I didn't like. I have had this charming pony for years - I am his original owner - and always intended to photo show him but never did. It is well past time now that this little chap got a new lease on life, with a new owner who can give him the attention I cannot.  He certainly deserves better than to be cooped up in a box any longer. He has all the personality and charm that I know my fellow North Light lovers will appreciate. He is in excellent, like new condition, with just one little random paint spot on his butt that I never noticed until I took his eBay photos. He would be a lovely show pony, and a great shelf piece. North Lights have not been made for years now, and due to both their popularity and inherent fragility, they WILL only become rarer and harder to find.
This adorable pony has been meticulously kept in a non-smoking home, and is ready to grace your shelves. I am ferociously picky and my standards are high, but those of others may vary, so please ask any questions before you bid!  Everyone has their own opinion, and what might drive me completely nuts might be inconsequential to someone else (or vice versa, though honestly the latter hasn't happened yet).  I try to provide very, very detailed descriptions, and I am happy to answer any inquiries. Sale of this model is final, so I want to make sure the new owner is as pleased with him as I have been.
I am embarking on a downsizing of a model horse collection spanning 40+ years. As I don't want the reverse process to take as long, I am offering models, mainly discontinued and SR/Ltd. Ed. OFs, many at reduced starting or BIN prices. I tend to list only a few models at a time, so I can give each transaction as much attention to detail as possible. If you are looking for something specific, check back here as you search - I just may have it listed!
Actual estimated delivery date (not eBays) includes three business days to pack and ship the item, and depends on auction end date, shipping service, and receipt of cleared payment.  PLEASE NOTE: Winner must acknowledge within THREE business days of auction close or I will open an Unpaid Item case with eBay in order to be able to relist the item. This does NOT mean you have to PAY within three business days! Just let me know you are aware you've won the item and what you intend to do about it. ;-)  I am happy to work with buyers on payment(s). Unfortunately, I've had to tighten up my policy to avoid having unpaid items tied up for weeks when winning buyers simply disappear.
IMPORTANT NOTE ABOUT INSURANCE: I ship via USPS Priority Mail unless specifically requested otherwise.  USPS Priority automatically insures packages only up to .
Insurance over that amount is EXTRA and is the buyer's responsibility. If you are the winning bidder on an item over , please let me know ASAP if you would like additional insurance. Otherwise I will assume the buyer does not require insurance, and I will ship the item without it.  I can NOT be responsible for damage or loss of items not insured for full purchase price.

Thank you to all the bidders, returning and new, for giving happy new homes to models I have loved and enjoyed!
