I admit, I’ve usually got quite a bit of spending money, coming from living at home and having relatively few expenses, but it is still amazing to me that so many people do opt for $500+ plushies, $1,000+ custom inflates, and similar things. It might be due to the average age of both fandoms being rather low, so there aren’t a lot of people with families to support, mortgages, et cetera. Then again, incomes are lower at that stage for many, too, so it’s hard to say.
 
I wish I could get these more expensive inflatables because they seem really nice! Too bad I probably never will… :’(

There’s a balloon/inflatables pony group on dA called PoniesAndBalloons if you guys are interested. I’m a contributor there.
I would like to join that group, but it seems they are no longer accepting new member.
 
We’re still accepting new members :D I’m just not always on everyday lol. I can add you if you send me your dA name :)

Personally, I use a cheap $20 electric air pump.
Yes you could use an electric pump… But, you’d loose that intimacy….
 
True, but I did inflate a pony balloon once by mouth.

Personally, I’d love a Rainbow Dash and Rarity inflatable like this. Somebody NEEDS to draw RD inflating one of these. The problem with mouth inflation irl is that mildew can grow on your inflatables thanks to your saliva. So I’d recommend buying a pump if you get one of these. I’m a member of a pony balloon/inflatables group on Skype too.
 
This beats the hell out of those weird faced inflatable dolls they sold before. I have no issues with anthro, but the face… was nightmare fuel.

I guess an inflatable pone would have fairly universal appeal to most who like inflatables in general, so there’s that. Though I doubt they’d be as picky about the details as I might be. XD

Honestly unless he reads EQD or still lurks on iyru, I kinda doubt it. Just the one several months ago on Chunksta’s page. I should drop a link on his page and see what he says. X3

Haha… I haven’t been active on either of those sites in a while, so that’s probably why. I used to have him on Skype but I don’t think I do anymore. It WOULD be neat to have another to chatter with in inflates threads here, so perhaps?

I haven’t heard from schorse in ages o: Then again I’m hardly ever on FA, heh.
 
I know a lot of people in the fandom that have a ton of money, but most of the people I know personally are poor college students. It’s pretty amazing, the custom content out there. I guess the key is advertising things enough to get it noticed but not enough to get it shut down for copyright.
