Description UPDATE: Closed!

Although I really shouldn't be adding any more to my plate, I really want to do something to help with relief efforts, and since my plush commissions are still closed indefinitely, I thought a custom plush auction would be really enticing! So here we go!

Auction Info:
Starting Bid: $200
Minimum Increase: $5
Ending Date: Sept 16, 2017 at 00:00am
Snipe guard: 1 hour
Bids may be made through comment, or privately through note.

BID HERE!

Or note me to enter a private bid!



Plush Details:
Auction is for one (1) 12" floppy beanie style plushie
If this auction gets over $500, plush will be upgraded to a 12" standard (standing) plush with a brand new revamped standard pattern.
Alternatively, a couple's beanie commission of two (2) floppy beanie style plushies (with magnet noses for kisses) may be done if the auction gets over $500.
Expected delivery of plush: December 2017

Charity Info:
All proceeds (minus $35 for supplies) will go to hurricane relief for Harvey and Irma. Charities have yet to be determined, but will be local to the affected area, and definitely NOT the Red Cross or Salvation Army. You are free to suggest a charity that you'd like the funds to go to.

Things to Note: 
OCs and canon characters are welcome!
Characters other than ponies are welcome--I'm willing to make minor modifications to the body and head pattern to create seaponies, cats and dogs, and others. Griffons, dragons, and other unique shapes will be on a case by case basis. Ask below if you're unsure!
Complex characters that GREATLY exceed comparative commission price for the highest bid, will asked to be changed at my discretion. (I.e. a two-headed rainbow zebra dragon alicorn on a $250 bid.) I'm doing this for charity, and I'm willing to do more work than I usually would for the price, but I'm not going to kill myself, sorry!
That being said, body markings, gradient hair, and the like are NOT off limits as I need to make a printed minky order and have plenty of room for making hair and accessories!
 For ease of bidding, please reply to the latest bid, not the original comment.
 Chit chat in the bidding section will be hidden after some time for neatness.
 Please be prepared to pay within 48 hours of the auction ending!
If you can't afford it, don't bid it!

Question!
I sleep for four to five hours at a time. Could the snipe guard be extended if the final bid was made at night?

Unfortunately, that's just the nature of auctions! "You snooze, you lose." With one hour, that gives you enough of a window to get to a computer and bid, should you run late at something or forget to check your calendar. It's not there for convenience, it's just there to prevent shady swoop and grabs which I feel are often unfair.

Anything longer tends to discourage final bids, which the whole point of this is to make as much money as possible! But I do understand that can be frustrating on the other side of the curtain when you're trying to win the auction for as cheap as possible. Sorry!

I'm not trying to win it for cheap. I'm just trying to win it. Between you and me and anyone that actually reads comments, I'm going to bump it up to 500$ near the end to win the two. I just like to win. ^^ It's fun.

Thanks! It was done pretty much entirely in my embroidery hoop. Having an embroidery machine makes spikey manes really easy!

Ah this is so sweet! Irma already destroyed the smaller islands such as St.Martin and another. It also passed it.'s wrath in my island. It was pretty messy >^>

equinepalette In reply to LaceySurprise [2017-09-09 22:15:31 +0000 UTC]

For both Harvey and the incoming Irma, and Jose as well if it makes landfall. Funds will be distributed based on need or the auction winner's preference!

LaceySurprise In reply to equinepalette [2017-09-09 22:31:15 +0000 UTC]

Cool! I live in Huston so I know the devastation that Harvey has caused my city. I am so lucky that I didn't lose anything but a pair of boots. Good luck in your auction. P.S. Research where you donate, not all places actually help. Personally locals and smaller rescues have provided more help to each other than big ones. With the exception of Mattress Mac, he has helped so many people.

equinepalette In reply to LaceySurprise [2017-09-09 22:46:59 +0000 UTC]

Exactly. Mentioned that, too, in the description! I'll be donating local. I'm someone who does their research before donating

Comment here with a reference if you wish to inquire whether or not I would be able to do your character for this auction. Chances are, it's a yes, but you may have to reach a higher bid for more complex ponies or other characters!
