There are times when I make every effort to remain polite and professional, and there are times when I relish the opportunity that being self-employed gives me to tell an EW to fuck off.
Today I checked my various sites, reading comments and PMs and such, and found this:
"$35 EACH?! That's WRONG! I love those and want them! But, I WILL NOT pay $35 for EACH. Could you PLEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA AAAAAAAAAAAAAAASE lower the price down to $10 for ALL? PLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLEEEEEEEEEEEEE EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAASSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSEEEE EEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!
Sorry if I sounded rude though. Please reply to me!"
It was a comment on a photo of 5, that's FIVE, hand-made plushes. Priced quite cheaply at $35 each.
My response:
"So you basically think that the time I spend sewing is worthless, and I should slave for you for less than the cost of materials? Sorry no. You can go fuck yourself. You've gone beyond rude and into special realms of entitlement. I will not work for nothing just because you demand it. If you want plushes for $10 go to WalMart, they have plenty. And I hope and pray that you're just a troll because nobody should be so moronic that they think that $10 for a set of 5 hand made plushes is a reasonable demand."
And then I blocked them so they can't reply.
It feels SO DAMN GOOD to be me some days.
Funnily enough lately I've been getting a lot of comments about how my prices are way cheap and they're surprised I charge so little. I'm probably going to bump things up a bit in the near future. I'm sure this dillweed would be even more shocked and horrified when I want $40 each instead of $35. But they won't get a chance to tell me so, because they are blocked. It just sucks to be them.
