Well, for those of you saying, “I can never afford one of those!” If there’s 16 of them, and the auction lasts 6 days…and Windsone usually takes another 2 days to get the next one up, that’s 128 days, or roughly 4 months. So those of us that really want one *RAISES HAND ENTHUSIASTICALLY* have plenty of time to save
Not to mention there’s more after this in the darker color!Unfortunately, my situation will only get worse as four months go by, since I’ll be out of a regular job in May (when I graduate, my teaching assistantship runs out). There’s no such thing as saving in between since I have high credit cards, I have to try to pay those off before then. Not to mention my student loans coming due in November. And even if I get a teaching job for the fall, I’ll have all summer without an income. (Since I forgot to sign up for tables at the convention over Memorial Day and now it’s full!
)I could maybe come up with $200 or $300 for a flap cat (and I probably shouldn’t even do that), but $500 just seems like too much when I already have so much debt.
I’m not trying to make anyone feel sorry for me. I’m just trying to explain my situation, so you’ll understand why I can’t spend that kind of money for a statue, pretty though it may be.
Aww, poor Emerald. They’ll come down in price. (I hope), Now that I have my credit card down to x amount maybe I can seriously go for an ooak. You’ll get your dept down to, it just might take a few years.
No, I’m kidding myself I’ve got my dept cut in half, I still have a ways to go, especially if they keep cutting my hours.

is there still a pyo cat in the works? i hope so.
Dude, I feel like I’m gonna pass out. My heart is pounding! Heh heh…That was rent that’s due in 5 days
BUT I COULDN’T HELP IT! You all understand how it is! LOL! I don’t know who else bid, but they were 4 dollars away from what I bid. Besides, my sister put almost a full price bid on a house we can actually afford even at full price, so I guess I’m celebrating prematurely! *crossing fingers*Got a busted Windstone?

I can’t really spend the money anyway. Maybe the next one will go lower… yeah, right. nope, I didn’t bid on this one LoL I’ll go for one of the latter #s, but I always watch the auctions! It’s my pony race fix
That one shot up $160 in the last 30 seconds! LoLI was trying, but my high amount wasn’t as high as drag0n’s. I tried it twice and then ran out of time. I should’ve put in a higher amount to begin with. Next time I’ll know better.
By the way, congrats, drag0n! Hope you get the house too, so the kitty has a nice place to live… and you do too!

I DO want the darker one MUCH MUCH more, but I honestly think it’s going to go over a grand since there are only 2 and I can’t spend that much. If I DO manage to get the one I want with the darker coloring, then I’ll sell this one. I’m covering my butt incase Melody lists them after these are all over with I guess. I don’t want to end up with none like I did with all the other limited Flap Cats.
Sorry emerald
If it’s any conselation I’m saving to put a Emerald Peacock Emperor on Layaway with you
