(8/16/08) UPDATE: I'm not taking any additional commissions, at least until after I finish the current batch.

(7/1/08): I'm now offering a *very* limited number of outfits for sale to help finance the creation of some custom Doctor Who head sculpts. Updates on outfits will be posted as they become available. (When I start or finish sewing an outfit, etc.)

PRICES: Prices are based on how long it takes me to make certain items and/or how complicated they are to make. All prices are itemized, with prices based on $5/hour (below minimum wage). I also deliberately underestimate the number of hours spent sewing each item, since I sew very slowly. If you don't need/want an item (shirt, trousers, etc.), just let me know. I won't make or send that item, and won't include the cost of that item in the final price for the outfit. Dolls are not included in the price, and are not for sale unless otherwise noted.

PAYMENT: I take Paypal, installment payments, and/or trade. If you want to trade for some or all of the price, I have a list of the sorts of things I'm looking for on my Items Wanted for Trade page. For trade purposes, I count mass-produced commercially-available items (like a Character Options toy), as being worth the full retail price Amazon.com lists plus shipping costs. (If you get an item on sale or on clearance, you still get credit for the full price.) I subtract the following from your total: listed retail price of that item (rounded up), plus the cost of shipping that item to zip code 03242 in the United States (rounded up). Contact me to arrange trades for custom items (head sculpts, paint applications, etc.). No spot is "reserved" officially until a payment, installment payment, or trade actually is received for it. (Although I often waive this requirement for folks who bought from me in the past.)

SHIPPING: All prices include free shipping within the U.S. via first class U.S. mail. If you're outside the U.S., or prefer a different shipping method (like Priority Mail), please contact me to make arrangements. Thank you!

FEES: If your Paypal funds involve credit or debit card payments, Paypal charges me a transaction rate of 5.9% plus $0.30 USD (so I can lose almost $10 on any sale that involves a credit or debit card payment). Plus, Paypal allows me to accept only 5 more credit or debit card payments before July 7, 2009. This rarely is an issue since I've only ever received two such payments in 7 years, but better to let y'all know. I waive these fees for repeat customers or for folks who helped out with the head sculpt commissions.

NOTE: This is my hobby, not my full-time job. Commissions can take several months as I finish previous requests from other customers and work on projects of my own. Please feel free to contact me to ask about my current workload before you send any sort of payment.

(4/6/08): Recently I've gotten a lot of requests for the burgundy costume worn by the Fourth Doctor (Tom Baker) during Season 18 of Doctor Who. To be completely honest, it's probably my least favorite Doctor Who costume. Making that burgundy costume would feel like work instead of a hobby. I've received some tempting trade offers, but I just can't bring myself to care enough about that burgundy costume to do it any justice. It wouldn't be fair to "phone in" a sewing project. So for the forseeable future I respectfully decline to work on that burgundy costume. If I ever change my mind, I'll post an update here.

Information on Commissioning Doctor Who Head Sculpts

If you would like to help to get Doctor Who (or other) head sculpts made, please contact Rick, a.k.a. William Shatner's Toupee, since he is organizing and coordinating the commissions for various head sculpts.

The sculptor is WantedActionFigure, a.k.a. Ada. Ada charges a commissioning fee of $230 to sculpt a new head. Rick's group commissions spread that commissioning fee amongst the entire group, so several people each pay only $10-$15 of the commissioning fee, instead of one person having to pay the entire $230 all by themselves! Rick's group buys cover the cost of the head and the commissioning fee (spread out across all buyers). There is no profit for Rick or anybody else in the group. All funds raised pay for castings of the head sculpts plus the sculptor's $230 commissioning fee.

Yes, in order to "save" $10-$15, people can buy the head sculpts directly from Ada AFTER Rick's group has paid the $230 commissioning fee. Me, I'd rather help out the group than mooch off the group's effort after the fact. That's why I'm offering outfits for sale again.
