'Sup Modi-peeps!
The shop has been meaning to do this for a while and we're finally getting around to it: changing shop prices! The thing is, with how unstable and wonky Gaia's economy is, we're... not sure what our prices should be.

We have decided on how edit pricing will work, shown here:

Edit Prices:
When ordering an edited pet, you take the base price and add on an additional 100k+ for each edit level. I personally judge edit levels based on the info below.
Minor Edits: Just like an ordinary custom, but with a change or two. Minor edits are things such as simple jewelry, a piece of clothing, smaller items, etc. Expression changes are also fine. Think small and simple. (Base price + 100k.)
Moderate Edits: This is a pet with a few more edits than usual. A jacket/shirt, edited tails/ears/hair, hats, scarves, masks, accessories, jewelry, etc. For me, this is either two to three larger edits, or a few small/simple ones. (Base price + 200k.)
Heavy Edits: A custom with a lot of changes. I'm talking more than four larger/complex edits. A heavy edit pet can have just about as many items as a cosplay can, maybe even more. These are things like fully edited hair, multiple items, layers of clothing, major lineart changes, etc. Did I mention that these guys have a lot of edits? Lots of edits. Their edits are usually more numerous or more complicated than usual. (Base price + 300k.)

But we're stuck on custom and breeding prices. So, instead of sitting here and trying to decide by ourselves, we figured we'd get some suggestions from you guys!
The question here is: what do you think our new custom and breeding prices should be?
We have some basic prices that we've come up with, but we're not sure whether or not we should raise them more. Please keep in mind that we do not want to charge millions and billions for pets. Charging more than 1.5mil for a pet would be silly.

Breeding Prices
Waiting to see what type of BCRs you received so you could send the breeding payment was always confusing for everyone, so we want to change things up. The new way we're proposing will cut the waiting time out entirely. If a majority of you are okay with it, we plan on breeding payment being based solely on the parents, rather than the amount of BCRs and the types of BCRs the breeding results in. This way you'll know right from the start how much you'll be paying!
Regular Parent: 15k
Rare Parent: 30k
So, examples:
Regular Parent: 15k
Rare Parent: 30k
So, examples:
- A breeding with two regular parents would cost 30k total.
A breeding with two rare parents would cost 60k total.
A breeding with two different parents (1 regular, 1 rare) would cost 45k total.
Post here if you have any questions, comments, or concerns. Please don't hesitate to post them, especially since this is a big change to the shop. It effects everyone!
We're going to leave this thread up until we finally figure out some prices to go with. The prices we decide on won't take effect immediately and will be slowly introduced instead, just so everyone knows.
