[16:10] rr36754793xxxch: Hello.
[16:10] ObliviousAlly: Hi?
[16:11] rr36754793xxxch: Hello. Can you guess who this is?
[16:12] ObliviousAlly: Should I know who this is?
[16:12] rr36754793xxxch: Wag, everyone should know who I am.
[16:12] ObliviousAlly: I'm afraid I don't.
[16:13] rr36754793xxxch: May I see your commission prices?
[16:13] ObliviousAlly: http://www.furaffinity.net/user/info/obliviousally/
[16:13] rr36754793xxxch: Thank you.
[16:13] ObliviousAlly: I'm doing full digital pieces for, like, $50 at the moment, too.
[16:14] rr36754793xxxch: $50!
[16:14] ObliviousAlly: They're usually $90.
[16:14] rr36754793xxxch: $90!
[16:15] rr36754793xxxch: May say something to you?
[16:15] ObliviousAlly: I suppose.
[16:15] rr36754793xxxch: $90 is a lot of British money.
[16:16] ObliviousAlly: I offer cheaper commission.
[16:19] rr36754793xxxch: I see.
[16:19] rr36754793xxxch: Have you ever thought of depicting any of your characters performing acts of homosexuality?
[16:19] ObliviousAlly: Not particurarly.
[16:19] ObliviousAlly: I don't really take adult commission work.
[16:20] rr36754793xxxch: Hmmm. I see.
[16:21] rr36754793xxxch: Is $90 enough for an adult commission?
[16:21] ObliviousAlly: No. $90 is the price for my G-PG rated general commissions.
[16:22] rr36754793xxxch: Hmmm.
[16:23] ObliviousAlly: I really have no desire to do adult commission work. I prefer to keep that for my personal work.
[16:26] rr36754793xxxch: How highly do you recommend SavannahHorrocks?
[16:26] ObliviousAlly: I've heard she's really good to work with. Quite friendly.
[16:27] rr36754793xxxch: Are you on friendly terms with Savannah?
[16:27] ObliviousAlly: We haven
[16:27] ObliviousAlly: We haven't really spoken outside of comments on FA. I've done fanart for her.
[16:27] rr36754793xxxch: I am inclined to believe otherwise.
[16:30] rr36754793xxxch: Thank you for your time, Obliviousally. Your charges are a triffle steep for your skill level and creativity.


Okay, that's great and all. If you think my charges are too expensive, you're welcome to haggle a little with me. I'm open to taking payment and stuff. Jesus fucking christ.

50 USD translates to 27.77 GBP, which is very cheap, considering the price of everything there. So I have no idea what the hell he is on.

OOOh...see that was my question below. I know I took a commission once from out of the US for $15 and it ended up being, like, $35 after translation... I was amazed.

But yeah... if that's the translation then this guy is just plain rude. WoW!

wtf is a wag?

[obliviousally.livejournal.com]

I'm assuming that's his murry purry furry name. I know there's someone named Wags or Rags or something relatively local to the NE OH area, but I don't know if that's him or not.

[hellebore.livejournal.com]

there's a guy who tells me 'wagawan' when he talks to me, i'm guessing it's british slang.

[keeperofdreams.livejournal.com]

Or it's a furfag wagging their non-existent tail at you.

[badkitty.livejournal.com]

because, you know, insulting an artist is TOTALLY going to get them to offer you a super-cheap adult commission. :T
tardcake.
i seriously doubt that non-artist folks understand what kind of work goes into digital art pieces.

there are so many different things wrong with this conversation. D: i swear to god furries thrive on seeing other furry artists fail at paying bills and being broke so they can leech off of their CHEAP COMMISSION SPECIALS. and why on earth did he bring savannah into the convo? is he like, making up his own little drama world or something? I'M SO CONFUSED.

[thepurplewolf.livejournal.com]

Well... now wait a second. Is he from out side the US? I got paid in Euro's once for $15 us and it turned out to be $35 for them. I was amazed. Is that possibly what they meant when they said "$90 is a lot of British money"????

Also, Wag... I think I know Wag. Not sure.

In either case, the ending comment was just incredibly rude and I'm amazed anyone had the guts to say that. WoW!
