Hello! I wanted to try an auction for the first time to sell one of my customs! I’m not sure if there will be any interest, because she’s a bit spooky and maybe an acquired taste, lol, but there’s no harm in trying, right?

Peeper's Pony Auction

Start and End
Auction start date, time, and time zone: September 28, 2:00pm EST
Auction end date, time, and time zone: October 5, 2:00pm EST

Pricing and Payments
All prices are in $USD
Payment accepted through: Paypal goods&services

Shipping
Shipping is available to: international, but please be aware that the item is shipping from the United States and the buyer will be responsible for paying shipping. I can package her in whatever way the buyer prefers to lower costs, if they request such a thing, and I’ll do my best to get the cheapest price while making sure she’s safe and tracked on her journey, but shipping prices vary so wildly these days. I can’t really give an estimate of her shipping cost without knowing where I’m sending to. She’s a BBE pony, so shipping will be comparable to that.
Item(s) ship from: USA

Bid Increments: $2
^ A bid increment is the minimum of how much a person must bid above the current price.

There are reserve prices: No.
^ Reserve prices mean that if that amount is not met, the item will not sell. No reserve means that whatever the high bid is, the item will sell for that amount. Please indicate in the item description if there is a reserve.

Additional Terms: I mail from a cat-friendly but smoke-free home. I’m not responsible for any unpredictable damage that happens during shipping, i will make sure she is packaged securely and as the buyer requests. Please feel free to contact me with any questions.


Item(s) for sale:

1. Pumpkin
- Starting Bid: $15 USD
- Pumkin is a BBE pony who has been modified into a spooky Jack-O-Lantern for Halloween! She has been rerooted with brand new soft Nylon hair, and hand painted and varnished to protect her paint from damage. Her eyes light up using a bright light that sits securely inside her head. In order to switch the light on and off, her head must be removed. I have removed and replaced her head many times throughout the process of making and photographing her, and I do not believe there is any risk of this action damaging her or her paint! The light uses three standard sized watch batteries, and these batteries can be easily replaced. As she is handmade, slight imperfections are to be expected. I have done my best to photograph her very thoroughly, and I do not believe there is anything that is not documented in the photos. (I’m sorry for the spooky disembodied pony head photos at the end!:shock: I felt it was important to show the light mechanism… but oh my goodness it looks scary!)

This custom is insane! Great job with the whole design and those crazy eyes! I also love your tapir/pony design in the... profile banner, is it? Tapirs are a native species where I live, they just have such an adorable shape hehe; and they are about as big as a pony. They're also pretty essential to South American rain forest ecosystems, so we have quite a few conservation efforts to restore their dwindling population :sunflower:

Ahh thank you so much!! And oh my GOSH! have you ever gotten to see one in person?? Tapirs are my absolute favorite animals, someday I really want to organize a fundraiser to support their conservation...

In person I just saw one or two at what used to be the city zoo, which now is more like a nature reserve where they also rehabilitate native fauna (or take in native wild animals that have been kept as pets, illegally). I'm pretty sure they'll eventually release the tapirs I saw there back to their natural habitat at some point (along with their goofy little noses :happyhearts:)
 
$42
 
Ok the auction is officially over, and the winner is Darklys for 42$!

I just wanna say thank you to every single person who bid on this pony, it means so much to me that you were interested in my art. It has really made me feel inspired and encouraged to continue creating. I'll be back with more ponies eventually! (I may or may not be working on a glowing-eyes BBE black cat pony...)
 
!!!!!! I was considering asking you for a black cat with glowing eyes! I can’t wait to see!!
