A small commission price increase
a year ago
General
Heyall!
I want to apologize for a slight price increase in my commissions.
Years ago when I did commissions, PayPal had the option for clients to pay the extra fee (ranged from couple of euros),
but seems like it has since been changed, and it's now so that the seller (me) pays the fee instead.
I read through their terms as well, and it seems it's actually against their rules now to add any other
fees for the client to pay. I'm not really sure how to feel about this.
So the only change I could think of was to add that fee directly to my prices,
even though I absolutely hated it. But only this way it's "legal" in PayPal's terms, and I actually
get paid the amount that I should. The fee is "only" 5€ but it still felt awful to edit
that number to my commission prices. I'm so sorry for this! It's the only solution for me to
receive a full payment for my work. (e.g. if a commission costs 90€, I receive 85€...)
This change has been edited to my commission info & ToS.
(doesn't affect the people who are already on my commission list)
Sorry for the inconvenience! m(_ _;m)

I've been thinkin about the same thing, with how the cost of living going up in Finland yeah the "missing" 5€ is a big number
Yeah, and how our oh-so-amazing government is making life miserable for the common folk, while making sure their own pockets are filled.

It's a perfectly reasonable thing to do, and glad to see you making sure to take care of yourself there. Just means a tad more saving before I can try to commission you myself!
Thank you for understanding! ⸜( ´ ꒳ ` )⸝♥ I'll be waiting patiently for your contact~ °˖✧
