i can tell you i love it and was considering getting it, but i think the timing was just off since they basically just announced helioptile as being a main pokemona who will get many official plush. it caused me to grind to a halt getting commissions ( i already ordered two) and i've had to turn away from some really amazing cute ones like this. i might have gotten him anyway but i funnelled all my money into my new garden ;_;
my point is, he's an amazing plush, and i think the price is fine for the work you did. i just think the timing maybe went bad because he got official plush announced, meaning everyone can get a nice big plush cheaply.
thanks, that makes me feel better. I know a lot of people are too nice to say anything, so I was really wondering if I had priced it too high (tbh, I still do. I know the BIN is a bit outrageous, but I wasn't really expecting anyone to go for it anyways) It's one of the reasons I stay away from making mons >.>
but yep, I will try not to be too discouraged by it! I will think of something else to get me out of this rut... sewing surely cannot be the only thing I can do :\ being a hermit is no no good
Have you thought about listing Helioptile on eBay? You would probably have better luck there. I think the price is very reasonable, it is obvious you put a lot of thought and work into the plush. If I had the money, I'd buy him in a heartbeat. I just have to watch my spending right now and it doesn't help that I recently feel off the no spending wagon again...;_;
I think $250 is close to the max I'd pay for such a plush. If it were something I wanted then I would go that high due to his moving bits and prettiness. But while I like thr frilled electric lizard, he's not an OMG Pokemon of mine ^__^
I absolutely agree with everybody else. If I had the money, I would buy him in a heartbeat as well. I have to watch my spending as well, since I am going to Japan this September. I would try eBay as well, but honestly, I personally don't like selling on eBay, due to the fees and I have a fear of getting a dispute or other things....so I am used to the system in the pkmncommunity rather..
