EDIT: Aurasoul's boyfriend sent me a refund. Assuming they don't try anything stupid to try to defraud me I'm going to consider the matter closed.
I commissioned a custom plush from Aurasoul on FA as a gift to a friend. Almost two years later, it has not been completed or sent and there is no evidence that it was ever started. Meanwhile, the "artist" has acted improperly, making vague and not so vague threats. In the journal cited below, the artist outright states that she will commit theft (keeping money spent without providing product) if people complain. The link to the actual journal is followed by a link to a screenshot archive in case the journal itself is removed.

She outright states that she will keep my money and then sell the product I ordered at auction.
This follows her intentionally getting herself banned on DA after people started to complain there, so she could not be contacted there. Do not ever commission this scammer.

I'd suggest reporting her to furbid if she does try to sell the plush on there, also reporting it to other bidding places if she tries to sell the plush elsewhere.
Hopefully the sites will remove her if she refuses to give customers their paid for plush and just tries to sell it for profit.

Treating a customer like that is absolutely disgusting, especially when the customer was trying to be as professional as possible.
Karma is going to bite her in the ass.

Date: 2010-07-04 08:14 pm (UTC)I almost feel like someone should make a spoof version of " 88 lines about 44 women" by the Nails, only using bad commish artists who have been featured here instead of girls.
