    Sorry Adara. Didn’t mean to step on toes, or hijack threads. 😳 I vote for the SK as well, just a bit later so I can afford it! 😉

        I bumped this cause it was mentioned in the broadcast and I was wondering if this was still possible.

          There was a poll going for the next SK color, but I can’t find it now. It’s disappeared or something! 😕

          Edit: Nevermind, I found it! Oh, and Empea SKs would be very cool!

            I know you can’t make Emerald Peacock SK’s again cause they were limited production, but I was wondering if when ever the SK’s come out in production if you could paint them the Emerald Peacock with little or no purple like you do the dragons now with very little purple. You would probably have to call it something else too. I’m not one for the purple anyway. I like the one that have more of the teal blue/green color. You could make the SK’s just different enough by using no purple. EmPea is a beutiful and popular color and it would be a shame to not make any SK’s in a similar color. Besides I’m gonna need one to match all of the EmPeas I’m getting!!!! Something to think about 😉

            Oh! You mean with the other violet color. You are right! I could make them with the bluer violet on them, just like the others! I hadn’t thought of that. Thank you!
            I was thinking that the Em. Pea. Secret Keepers could be painted in a simpler manner (the limited edition ones had lots of hand brush painted details on them ) but having the color difference also is a great idea!

              Hate to point this out, but Oregon has it’s problems too. From what I understand, instead of sales tax, you get reamed by property tax. Same problem, different location.

              Oh, and please watch the politics. I support Arnold insofar that he (unlike Grey Davis) has been avidly working towards budget solutions for California, even if where the cuts have been have been unpopular. Additionally, unlike the Democ”Rats” and Republi”can’t”s, he is moderate, a stance I fully approve of in a world that is rapidly growing to be politically black and white. *shrugs* The money has to come from somewhere. Specially in a state this big.

              *steps off her soap box*

              I’ll work on a new em-pea concoction. If Melody will let me.

                I’m so glad you saw this again! I think it would be awesome for you to change the EmPea color to make it production on the SK. I personally like the deeper bluish purple instead of the violet.

                    That sort of this isn’t usually decided until right before they go up for sale- if this even happens. They often don’t decide until hours or sometimes even minutes before we can buy them.

                    My sales tax is 8.5% here in poverty armpitt Western NY too so don’t feel too bad. Property tax is also very high. My parents pay over $5k a year and the house is valued at less than $100k 😉 Each place has it’s ups and downs.

                      You should hear about the Property taxes in Indiana. My mom’s have quadrupled in the last 2 years. People are having to sell their houses becuase they can’t afford the taxes.

                          I live on the concord/clayton border. The company I work for in in San Ramone, too. It’s on Bollinger Canyon Rd.
                          For GB, sales tax here is a mere 8.5%. It’s not as bad as customs for all of you, but is does sting. Especially for those custom pieces that get a bit pricey.

                          Don’t complain, we’re paying 5% GST + 8% PST…so 13% sales tax on just about everything.
