Update to Commission Prices
6 years ago
Hey all! This is just a quick update post to keep my watchers in the loop, as well as anyone who might be interested in commissioning me.
As of this journal posting, I'll be taking commissions in GBP instead of USD, and converting my prices to this currency as they should have been in the first place. This comes with the consequence of upping my prices across the board a small bit due to exchange rates. As many of you know, I live in the UK, but for the longest time, my prices have been in USD for simplicity and ease of use. While this wasn't much of an issue when I first started out, it's slowly becoming more and more of an issue I can no longer ignore.
It took a while for me to make this kind of decision because I don't want to seem greedy or turn away people, and I'm very grateful for anyone who has commissioned me before, but after consulting many people close to me and coming to a consensus, I've decided it's for the best I compensate for the exchange by charging natively in GBP, and letting PayPal do the conversion. To clarify, you can still commission me no matter where you are or what kind of currency you're using!
I'll detail the exact price conversion below in USD, as that's what my prices were in before, but if your country's currency isn't listed then there are many exchange calculators online to use. I hope anyone reading this understands, and that the conversion listed below shows why charging in USD was becoming an issue. If you've commissioned me prior to today, you will not need to pay anything extra for your commission to be completed, obviously! <3
Rough Sketch is now £7 GBP, conversion is $9.21 USD.
Clean Sketch is now £15 GBP, conversion is $19.74 USD.
Flat Colours £20 GBP, conversion is $26.31 USD.
Shaded Piece £25 GBP, conversion is $32.89 USD.
Addon: Additional Character: £3.50-£12.50 GBP, conversion is $4.60-$16.45 USD.
Addon: Internal Shot: £5 GBP, conversion is $6.58 USD.
Thank you for reading!
