Canadian Artist? Charge Canadian!
9 years ago
Have a little pride in your country and charge your own damn currency. Seriously, I refuse to buy from Canadian artists that do this. It's not even about the price; heck, tack on an extra amount and charge more than you would have made in the exchange rate. It's really about integrity and the fact that you flock to USD whenever our currency takes a dive so you can make a few extra bucks for the same 'number'.
On the flip side, when you stay in CAD your price becomes more appealing to furries in the USA. Reap benefits from supply and demand, and then increase your prices in CAD if you're too busy to handle the demand.
I'm sure everyone has an opinion or perhaps a different reason for doing this, but this is what it actually looks like to non-artists, and the people I know personally gripe about it quite often behind your back. Just wanted to give you some insight into that, because like Canadians tend to do I'm sure nobody told it to you directly.
Also, I don't give a shit about your opinion and I'm not opening a debate here. It's been bugging me for awhile and it just has to be said now.
