I have a feeling some of the more popular sitting oris people are hoping to trade for have already been set aside for eBay auctions, much like a few of the most interesting recent baby unis were.
We have been assured that the grab bags on ebay are ones that were set aside in case someone has a piece lost in the mail (or whatever) and needs a replacement. However, I agree that they do seem to be some of the more interesting items.
And it’s okay of they are. If Windstone gets a good payout for an eBay piece then they stay in business and keep making all the lovlies we collect. Technically all these pieces should be on eBay and of the action started at the purchase price my bet is they would sell for more. And if they didn’t they could be listed in the store everything eventually sells.

I don’t think they choose ones to set aside. I assume they box them up, then count out a number of boxes to set aside.

February 7, 2019 at 8:32 am #1555579It looked as though a couple of koi were thrown back, so I got one. In theory I should get a wild color to try and coordinate with the “Celestial Sunset” Moon dragon but the odds are not good! Maybe in the aftermarket …
LOL! You must have gotten that last one I nabbed, then released a half hour later. I don’t like oris, and I don’t like the designs, so I wasn’t going to get one at first. But there is somebody who has an eBay piece I really really want that she is willing to trade but not sell. So when I saw they were in the store, and there was only one koi left, I put one of each in my cart and started looking if she had said anything about whether she wanted one and what kind she liked. I could’ve PM’d her, but I was afraid I wouldn’t hear back in the 45 minutes. When I found her post, I had to try to figure out which batch most of her faves were from. Then I deleted the koi and wild from my basket and checked out. You posted around the time I finished my purchase.

February 7, 2019 at 4:47 pm #1555923UPS says my little ori will arrive a week from today. It’s going to be a long 7 days!
February 7, 2019 at 5:46 pm #1555937I’ve reevaluated the ones I am most interested in and made new pics. I definitely have my hopes set on that red eyed fellow with the star by him. Otherwise, The rest of my faves are circled in purple. The red ones I like quite a lot, and probably would be very happy with. The yellow ones I’d need to see more pics of, but I like them in the class pics. If I end up with one of the ones I don’t love, and can’t trade him for a favorite ori, I will consider trades/partial trades for GB/TP unis or TP Bats or TP Batwing Cats. Feel free to get in touch if you have unis you’d like to trade for a Rising Ori and I’ll make sure to update you when mine arrives!

February 7, 2019 at 6:11 pm #1555949Amy, I saw your post saying your post kept disappearing, and sure enough it did. Unless someone else can reply here and help you, I would suggest emailing Clay to help you out.
February 7, 2019 at 6:14 pm #1555950Do you have Clay’s email? I haven’t ever messaged him before.

Make sure that the photo size is 512 kb or smaller – that may be the problem. Large format photos aren’t accepted by WordPress on this site. And yes – if you continue to have problems go to the Website issues thread and ask Clay to help.
Here’s a link to that thread: https://windstoneeditions.com/forums/topic/new-website-concerns/
Additionally – I don’t believe PhotoBucket allows you to use their site to ‘host’ a photo on another site. If you have the photo on your computer or phone you can link it to the post from there. You don’t need a third party site to host photos.

*** Come visit me on deviantArt at http://ela-hara.deviantart.comFebruary 7, 2019 at 6:17 pm #1555952Ok, well I had tried attaching the photos to the post, but they kept disappearing, and I feel like a long time ago at least, we weren’t supposed to host things on this site because it’s too taxing, so we were supposed to host them somewhere else. Hasn’t made a difference though. All posts with photos disappear.
And does each individual photo need to be 512 or less, or is that total?
Because the photos I put up were in the 200s. There were three of them. So that totals over 600, does that matter?February 7, 2019 at 6:20 pm #1555953YAY! I received my shipping / tracking information!

The total shouldn’t matter. Clay’s Forum member page with contact info is here:
