FA Artist heads up

[cerari.livejournal.com]

First time posting here, but after stumbling onto this user's journal I thought a heads up to this community might not be a bad idea.

User is JinDragonWolf (http://www.furaffinity.net/user/jindragowolf/) - they posted a journal about how they may cancel their current commissions since they have been taking so long and "not feeling up to them", and then start over with higher prices to get a Wacom. Oh, and they can't afford to give refunds at this time either.

The fact is, the price PROTECTS the customers. If you pay 200 bucks for a character peice and you dont get it, or have any issue and dont get a refund, then you can take them to small claims. If you pay 25 bucks for something and dont get what you wanted, you're pretty fucked.

I don't dispute that, my only point of contention is that a high price does not necessarily represent good service.

And I didn't suggest that either.

Pretty sure you CAN technically take someone to small claims court over as little as 25 dollars.

Just as example, years ago my mother was watching a Judge Judy case where the guy was taken to court over a case of YuGiOh cards which cost something like twenty bucks and to file the case, it was 35. When he won, he got his 35 back as well as the judgement.

So at least in the States, it is definitely possibly and from what I recall of law class, the States and Canada's basic lower courts are very similar.
