(That is good quality) (The one I plan on having commissioned if I get a spot: <a href=\"http:\/\/imgur.com\/auYbV\" title=\"http:\/\/imgur.com\/auYbV\" class=\"attachment thumbnail\" id=\"attachment-68791\" rel=\"nofollow external\">http:\/\/imgur.com\/auYbV<\/a> ) 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 &quot;cheap&quot; 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."}
