Ah, I missed seeing that. Guess I’ll be holding on to mine, then. Two selling at once isn’t great, and honestly that’s way lower than I’d accept for it anyway.
I guess. I have a feeling that the minimum I’d part with it for would already be too high, though. The other fledgies I’ve sold recently went pretty low.
I am in pretty poor financial shape right now (Will probably be listing some things in the classifieds once I scrape up the energy to take photos and such) and I’m considering selling a few of my rarer fledglings including maybe my Old Green one. But I’m only willing to part with it if it’s worth enough, and basically I’m wondering if anybody has ever sold or bought one? I’ve never spotted one for sale, but I don’t keep a close lookout for them so I might have easily missed it happening.
Anybody know?
Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee! Yesyesyesyesyesyes!
I really can’t afford it right now, and I don’t have time to paint it, but who cares, getting it anyway!
I finished this ages ago, (right before giving birth!) but for some funny reason haven’t had time to upload it… 😀
It’s for sale, along with a bunch of other PYOs. (Check the classifieds.)
I’m in a bit of a financial pinch right now, so I’m hoping somebody will pick one or two of them up. I probably should list a few other things too, (I’m actually considering paring down my fledgie collection, the new Tanzanite is pretty but it has me realizing that maybe I don’t want to keep *needing* to buy new colors to keep the collection complete, and if it’s not complete I might as well sell some of my least favorites) but taking photos takes so much time and I never have any!
Anyhow, they’e not the best pics in the world, but it is very pretty, if you like a more subdued, natural kind of color scheme. 🙂
I haven’t named any of my fledgie army, but my Secret Keeper is named Brunhilde. She is so huge and solid that a Valkyrie name seemed appropriate.
Awww, thank you all! I had a really lovely birthday, my mother in law watched the baby so I could have some me time, and I took myself out for sushi for lunch and to a local liqueur company for a tasting, and then my husband insisted on taking me out for dinner too.
Meeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee! Though I’m less likely to do a big keeper this time and more likely to do a kittygriff, but if nobody minds that, I’m all for it!
Eeeeeeeeeee! I’m ridiculously excited! I have no time whatsoever to paint one, and I’m going to paint one anyway. 😀
Just going through people’s PYO threads. Saw this kittygriff and HAD to tell you that it’s really really nice! I think it’s my favorite PYO kittygriff I’ve seen. Well done!
Aww, thank you!
I’m actually half way through a wolf in almost the same color scheme. (No time to paint lately, though, so who knows when it’ll get done.)
Perhaps there was this golden age of the forum where everyone wore a halo, but I guess it was well before my time.
As somebody who joined here very early on, this drama has always been here. It just seems to come and go in waves. There have always been call-out threads and people sending nasty PMs and discussions turning into fights. It’s called human nature, and I’m not really sure it can be eradicated. One can make rules endlessly, but what constitutes somebody being rude or mean or whatever is so subjective, and it takes a lot of time and attention from the people running the forum to catch every rude comment… I’m not sure it can be done here, to be honest.
On the other hand, the VAST majority of folks here have always been nice and polite. So long as outright name-calling and personal attacks aren’t allowed, I don’t think the forums are going to collapse under the drama.
P.S. I hate to add to the drama, but personally I WOULD appreciate it if people who flake out and back out of trades and sales would not themselves then go and rant about how awful it is when somebody flakes out and backs out of trades and sales… Just saying.
I’ve always chosen to accept personal payments when a customer chooses to send money that way, though I also always send a note advising them that in the future they shouldn’t do so, for their own protection. So far I haven’t had any problems.
Paypal is unlikely to notice unless the majority of your payments are arriving this way or unless somebody complains after not receiving their items. So as a seller, if you’re being ethical the risks are small. As a buyer, though, it’s a terrible idea and nobody should ever do it!
Thanks guys! 😀 I went and bought another hipp because they are so awesome, and I have a winged wolf in progress too, but honestly I have no idea when I’ll be able to work on either. (My baby is due in just over a month, and right now all I want to do is eat and sleep.)
I keep meaning to make a new set of classified posts too, but that also apparently takes too much energy.
