Birthday - 'Anything goes' custom auctions - over!

Welcome to the first 'anything goes' custom Samanayr auction! If you've always wanted something like a Northern Tribal Lamanayr Healer, now's your chance!

There are two 'anything goes' custom slots available, and of course, there's some rules :D
  • This is a $-only auction!
  • If payment would be delayed for a few days after the end of the auction (eg because you need to transfer funds to your PayPal account), that's fine, please just let me know!
  • You can only be the high bidder on one of the slots at a time, and each person can only win one slot.
  • There is no snipe guard. Bids will be counted as long as the timestamp is the end time of the auction (eg if the auction ends at 6:00, bids with the timestamp 6:00 would be included but 6:01 would be too late).
  • Please don't edit your post! If you're outbid while you're posting just post again.
This is also a ladder auction, which means the type of custom you can get will depend on the amount bid. Here's the ladder structure for both auctions:
  • Starting bid $10 - Custom can be any common species, 2 traits
  • $20 - Any uncommon species, 3 traits
  • $30 - Any rare species, 4 traits
  • $50 - Any combination species with max rarity rare (eg Lamanayr Mystic, Tribal Illiayr), 5 traits, 1 pet
  • $100 - Any species/combo, any traits, 2 pets
  • $150 - A pair of Sams of any species (can be a new species, only one Mystery), 2 pets, can all be the same image
And some info about the customs themselves!
  • For all levels of the ladder, you get to choose the gender, colors, markings, and accessories.
  • The number of traits per level does not include species-specific traits.
  • Traits can be any rarity except 'unique.'
  • If you would like customs of a new species, I'll work with you to stick as close to your species concept as possible but make sure it will still fit into the Samanayr world.
  • For level $100 and above, your custom can be a Mystery! However, for the $150 level only one of the two customs can be a Mystery.
I think that's everything XD If you have any questions, please ask!

Both auctions start now, with the opening bid $10 for each. Slot 1's auction will end August 7, 5pm PDT and Slot 2's auction will end August 7, 6pm PDT. When bidding, please specify the amount of your bid and which slot you're bidding on. Good luck!

Sushi, would you accept payment with half being a money order and the other half being through Paypal? Because I have some credit from Puuka, and I also have some money from my grandmother and I don't have Paypal.

ETA: What would 6pm your time be in Atlantic time? I've never been very good with times... my SS teacher never really explained it. :P

Slot 2 - $30

And I should be home in time on Saturday to be around when they end!

And Math, there's handy time zone converters online, like this one. Sushi's on Pacific time. I think Atlantic time is four hours later than Pacific (this message posted a little after 8:00 your time, right?), so that means they should be ending at 9 and 10 for you.

Math, if you're on the Atlantic coast, you are 3 hours ahead of Sushi.The Pacific coast is 3 hours behind the Atlantic. *sage nod*

I just came from California to Florida once again, so I'm still jetlagged those 3 hours. xD;

Slot 1-51$

The Atlantic/East coast of the US (such as Florida) is actually on Eastern Time though. Atlantic time is one time zone further east of Eastern. So four hours ahead of Sushi.

Wow, thank you so much for the bids! Right now the high bids are:

Slot 1 - $51, HybridSiren
Slot 2 - $50, LvSoulFriend

As for times, I have the forum's default time set to PDT, so you can compare your time to mine when you're logged out XD

@Math - That would be fine, I'd just have to wait until the money order cleared. And that's a good question XD I'd say they're 'rare.'

Paychecks are nice. While I could afford to keep bidding I think I'm going to save my monies for next quarter, its nice to have a bit of a cushion. Good luck to everyone still in the running.
