I'm torn between disgust for the fans who buy stuff at grossly inflated prices and jealousy at their creators' profits.

@pony I do find inflated prices silly myself, but honestly $100 isn't that bad for a hand made plushie. (That is good quality) (The one I plan on having commissioned if I get a spot: http://imgur.com/auYbV ) The largest contributor to the inflated prices is Ebay. Without it, I'm sure commissions wouldn't go over $300 unless they were a gigantic towering plushie or something. Thanks to ebay, silly people who think they're bidding on something "cheap" and not realizing it's 10x more than usual by the end make it a whole lot more enticing to the makers than taking commissions for their stuff.

@egnaroesroh I believe the "Gigantic Towering Plushie" (Tinker's Live-sized-Pinkie) went for somewhere in the 4 figure range.

@ceruleanspark Yeah, pretty much. I think it was around 3-4k if I recall correctly.

@egnaroesroh I love it! Octavia is so awesome!
