The promise ring story pissed me off. "Only 70$!!!!" I was engaged to with a 30 dollar ring. 30 bucks. Engagement not promise, but you know what? I was fuckin ecstatic because it was my favorite stone (Lapiz Lazuli,) it fit perfectly despite not knowing my ring size, it was in a style that I absolutely adored and everyone and their mother thought the ring was gorgeous. The amount of confidence boosting compliments that I got felt incredible and I felt like..while it wasnt very expensive and he admitted that, the ring represented who i was as a person and I adored the amount of effort he put into getting it just right despite not having a lot of money to spend on it. Some people will never be grateful for anything, and it shows.

[@gadgetsage]

Mine is opal, for reasons; they're cheaper than diamonds, look better, I don't like diamonds, diamonds SHOULD COST about $20 a carat without monopoly and marketing and the misery of the diamond industry. Wife's was diamond until she lost it, now it's cz and no one knows.

[@serbiansleeperagent]

@@gadgetsage yup, gold is actually rarer than diamonds because it is theorized that gold came from outer space via space debris and asteroids, which explains why we only find it near surface layers. Diamonds are a naturally occurring variation of carbon which is so abundant that all life on earth is carbon based. You can thank the De Beers for having a grip on the nutsack of the diamond market. EDIT: In addition, diamond prices really demonstrate how most people base value on the material itself rather than the value of how its formed or harvested.

I mean yeah, diamonds look cool, but to be honest I don't mind the pricing of the gem as long as it looks pretty. Cheaper doesn't always mean worse.

Being nice is more likely to get you free/cheaper things. There was a thrift store near me and the guy who owned it and worked there had it open one day while I was hanging out by myself in town. I walked in and it was *trashed.* I helped the guy out with going through about half the building and talked with him a lot. Found out that he had been in the hospital and the 'friends' he asked to work at and man the store while he was in the hospital didn't really care and they trashed the place. They had apparently refused to help him out as well, and I was happy to hear he had dropped them as friends. After awhile, he had asked me if anything caught my eye and I had mentioned liking the fur hats he had (I thought they were faux/fake fur tbh, I hadn't touched them or gotten super close. They were real fur though, which maybe I should have realized with how nice they were.) He went over and grabbed the softest looking one and brought it over to me and asked how much I would be willing to pay for it. I said something like $10 and he told me it was free and gave it to me. I helped him close up the store and I haven't seen him since. The store hasn't been open anytime I've been in town again. The price tag on the hat said $36 and I still have it. It really is the softest fur thing I own and it's still my favourite fur I own :D!

As awful as the story about the person looking for a free wedding photographer is, the person that agreed to do it for free is even worse. They made it clear they put no value on the time, effort, skill, or talent of the professional taking the photos, they defended their entitled position and called the people trying to help her understand rude. She's clearly an entitled monster. But what's worse than that is the enabler who taught her that her actions were acceptable and made sure she would NEVER learn her lesson. That's why we have such a ChoosingBeggar problem, because people enable them, reward them, or give into their tantrums. You have no one to blame but yourself if you choose to do that. And you're not only hurting yourself and hindering the growth of these stunted babies, you're hurting everyone around them who has to suffer because they choose to enable them.

So I found something at a Target once that was marked for clearance, but no price. It was kind of a gag item, so not really important. At checkout, it wouldn't ring up at all. I had been talking with the checkout girl about random shit, and when this item wouldn't cooperate she looks at me and asks, "So, what would you pay for this?" I said "I don't know. $5?" She punches it in for $2 and puts it in my bag. Don't argue with people or haggle. Just be nice. I have known people who would have actually said TO A TARGET CASHIER that the item should be free if it wouldn't ring up. No Karen. That is not how it works.

@Kayotime just get an opinion from friends or just price them on how much time they take you

[@tess8541]

@Kayotime at the start I believe its usually whatever you're comfortable with, seeing you're starting off it can be harsh to put a high price to an art piece and have it sell good or have yourself be mentally okay with that. @Crima art (my dear friend) has been around for so long and built such a community that if she didn't put limits on her auctions it would've gone way higher howev that may not be what someone wants. So honestly pricing is something that's completely up to you and ofcourse whatever work you put into your art. Think it through, speak to people about it and grow from it. The choice you make now for that doesn't need to be permanent and can be changed at any time... (just keep in mind that when someone has paid... that's not the time to change things as thatd be scamming)

[@rockingamingwiththesahit2145]

As somebody who does do these things, it’s precisely because of these reactions. When people say “Aww, you didn’t have to do that for me!”, that’s why I do them. I’m bored, and giving someone a bit of joy in their lives isn’t going to hurt, is it? It’s usually not that much anyway, and the prime function of that is to make sure you remember them. People usually hang on to the bad memories, wishing for something else. If you provoke negative reactions, like guilt, people will hang on to those memories longer, and thus, remember me for longer.

[@Mumther_Flame]

I remember getting hounded for a lower price on my art. I don't charge money, because I don't have a banking account set up yet (as I'm a teenager) to even receive money. I said this multiple times before they got the message. I spent a good three hours on a completely shaded pfp of their character (which had a fairly complex design) for their account, and when they posted it, they clowned and criticized my FREE artwork that I put a lot lf time into. They complained that the lighting wasn't like a friend of mine's, that my proportions were off (a part of my style, which they were aware of as they sent me a piece of mine to reference for a clothing piece they wanted their character to wear), and just straight up were being extremely rude. They then went to one of my friends and hounded them for free artwork, saying that since I draw for free and did such a bad job, that they should refund it. My friend is much more lucky than me and had her parents set up a bank account for her, so she charges money (a redo of MY piece would've costed CB around $35). After not getting their way, CB started harassing us both. And then we mass reported them and all their stuff was taken down. Happily ever after ^^ (This was on Quotev, where the moderation is actually good,)

Are you THE Scorpion from Mortal Kombat? I'm a big fan of your work! You were always my favorite! I always enjoyed the "Get over here" you would say right before you impaled people with your Kunai rope dart and pulled them towards you for a massive uppercut. Thanks for all the years of butt-kicking. Tell Sub-Zero I think he's a little bitch. Have a nice day Mr. Scorpion 🦂

The worst is when they say, "I do the same job you're charging for too!" If that's true, then do it yourself. I do HVAC work, and all the family friends of friends that try to get me to repair their air conditioner for 20 dollars is insane. They act like im so lucky to get this offer, not like I work 60-70 hours a week at a reasonable rate.

the skate board one is a whole saga, it's amazing. Edit. The ending is cut. If you have time and ability see it from begining to end. It ends in pure glory, I wish I could remember where I saw the story.

[@heavenlydusk]

Giofilms maybe?

[@auqustfire]

That one confused me. $40 is a good deal on a skateboard. My sister bought her boyfriend one that was just the board (you had to buy the wheels and stuff separate) for around $100.

[@BloodyBay]

21:43 Yeah, I don't agree with that censorship myself. They're just censoring "reach around," which is where you're behind someone (like with massage or butt seks) and you _reach around_ their body with your hands to kerfluffle their naughty bits. The censorship's not about the words themselves so much as the deed which they represent. 🤔

It's irritating as a photographer, I'll offer pro bono work when I know the person can't afford a photographer and use adding the pictures to my profile...however I'll usually charge $9-10k CAD for a wedding and reception plus my editing time. If someone is particularly nasty or begging for free work I'll show them the door.

I did a little math and for the post with the sister being in Dept and op giving them a decent job, there pay daily is 312.00 per day if the work 13 hours each day (if I'm right this is a full time job) and that will amount to 2184.00 each WEEK which is plenty to pay for rent and food with some money left with also flexible time from the job. . .

[@humblenugget]

full time is 8 hours a day/ 40 hours a week, anything past that is paid 1.5x because it's overtime (she would probably only be allowed to work 8 a day). so it's less than your calculations but it's still an amazing job

[@kiwibuddy5341]

32:04 this post and things similar has really made me curious about what level of effort other artists would do for spite or even consider as a free piece of art. One day I'm going to go on a commission spree and ask artists to draw whatever they want, but put literally no effort into it, like a 30 second drawing or less, and then pay 5$ for their time because obviously you pay for art. I just want a collection of art from really good artists that is just terrible on purpose to see what that would look like
