Welcome to My Little Phony RL$ Customs! [Prices may be subject to change due to market forces | Please refer to examples in our Shop Thread for samples]
Due to strangely popular demand and desperate need for money IRL, RL$ BRIBES
are now a thing that we do. Bribes are technically open all the time - you can PM us
at any time to inquire about a possible bribe request. Of course, whether or not we
can take your request is still subject to whether we can fit it into our schedules, and
if your request is suitable for My Little Phony. Anything available on this page can be
bribed for - including all Phony types, breedings, Phonywear and pets.
Thank you so much for your patronage and understanding!

Charges for Add-ons
Phonies with the following additions will have the costs added onto the base price. The prices below are a general guide and may vary on a case-by-case basis - feel free to request a price-quote if your custom falls into these categories and you're interested in knowing (no commitment necessary at this stage).
Draft (for boys, Old Enough stage): US$3
Twinkle Eye (gemstone eyes as per G1 specials): US$5
Brush 'N' Grow (mane past knee/tail past hooves): US$0.50 - US$5+ - US$10+ depending on length and complexity
Twice-as-Fancy (additional markings): US$0.50 - US$5+ - US$10+ depending on amount and complexity
Unusual Features (e.g. sclera eyes, demon wings, etc.): US$1 - US$5+ - US$10+ depending on feature
Clothing and Accessories (e.g. ribbons, saddles): US$1 - US$5+ - US$10+ depending on item, more for sets and complexity
If in doubt, just ask! We're trying to strike a balance between discouraging an excessive proportion of unusual-lookin' Phonies and allowing customers to embody OCs more accurately. Hence even minor changes are unlikely to have waived costs, but they may sometimes just require a token half-a-dollar.
Clothing and Accessories for existing Phonies: Same as above - for those items that you really want but Maxx won't do for love or Gaia gold. You may also inquire about case-by-case basis costs for custom pets.
Custom Anthro Stage: Price of your Phony (as calculated with extras as above if applicable) +US$10
The Custom Anthro Stage is the final attainable stage for a Phony; it is meant to be a bonus stage obtained through extensive RP. In the case that your Phony is desperate to become humanoid but does not have the time to go through all that RP, this would be the RL$ option. The basic price covers a Phony with the usual Phony characteristics as outlined above (except with hairlength converted to human lengths, i.e. not beyond hip-length), with a simple outfit. For more than that, add-on charges would apply. Just contact us to check, and we'll give you a price quote based off your Phony! [Note: it is just for 1 stage, it does not cover the Phony lifecycle itself. The pricepoint is to compensate for the work that RPing to this stage would have taken and for the difference in complexity between a Phony and a humanoid.]
Breeding Package: Variable - see below (RLC price of Parent 1 + Parent 2)
Each RLC breeding batch will have 2 GROWING Babbens and 1 PERMA Babben (that can be grown the usual RP way or through the Perma-growth Package below at a later date)
To calculate the cost, take the RLC price of Parent 1 (including applicable charges for edits) + the RLC price of Parent 2 (including applicable charges for edits), roughly determined as per the pricelist above (we will confirm via quote if we pick your application)
The batch of 3 Babbens will be created through randomisation as usual and delivered after payment, whereupon you will determine the owner for each Babben.
Each owner can only keep one Babben per batch, and may choose the third owner through any method, including our usual event contests - so whose will grow and whose will not is up to you (e.g. you could opt to keep the Perma and let your friend have the growing)
The owners with the growing Babbens will then have to submit the usual Growth form in our Guild via PM (Note that you CANNOT specify any more about your Babben's Adult stage than as usual through the form)
The 2 Adult stages will then be created, after which certing can commence. The owners with the growing Babbens will then have to make a joint decision as to whether they would like the growing Babbens to grow on the usual growth cycle schedule, or have their Adult stage growth delayed for whatever reasons (e.g. to time their growths with the RP-req'd growth of the third sibling)
Perma-Breeding Package: Variable - see below ([RLC price of both Parents/4]x3)
(This is a trial package, largely for the purposes of allowing more breedings to happen, especially for normative basic breeds! It may be removed if we find the number of later RP growths overwhelming. Your mileage may vary on how worth it the charges are, in which case the usual Breeding Package above may be a better fit for you!)
Each RLC Perma-breeding batch will have 3 PERMA Babben (that can be grown the usual RP way or through the Perma-growth Package below at a later date)
To calculate the cost, take the RLC price of Parent 1 (including applicable charges for edits) + the RLC price of Parent 2 (including applicable charges for edits), roughly determined as per the pricelist above, DIVIDE the total by 4, and MULTIPLY the result by 3. (we will confirm via quote if we pick your application)
As you can see, this combines the breed/traits costs of the parents and averages it out among three Babbens, which each cost half of a Custom based on the averaged out costs of the parents. (e.g. A normative EarthxEarth breeding will cost $30)
The batch of 3 Babbens will be created through randomisation as usual and delivered after payment, whereupon you will determine the owner for each Babben.
Each owner can only keep one Babben per batch, and may choose the third owner through any method, including our usual event contests. Each owner may then grow their Babbens through the usual 6 RPs (Note that you CANNOT specify any more about your Babben's Adult stage than as usual through the form), or opt for the Perma-growth Package below at a later date.
Perma-growth Package: Variable - see below
This Perma-growth Package is intended for people who really want to grow their Permababbens but cannot find the time to RP
The cost is calculated as the RLC price of your Phony (including applicable charges for edits) roughly determined as per the pricelist above MINUS US$3 (we will confirm via quote if we pick your application)
UNLESS your Perma is a result of an RLC PERMA-Breeding Package (not the 2/3 growing Breeding Package), in which case, it is the RLC price of your Phony (with applicable charges for edits DIVIDED by 2) roughly determined as per the pricelist above MINUS US$3 (we will confirm via quote if we pick your application)
After payment, you will then have to submit the usual Growth form in our Guild via PM (Note that you CANNOT specify any more about your Babben's Adult stage than as usual through the form)
. COMMISSION PROCEDURE .
♥ When RLC slots are open, an announcement will be made in the shop thread. If not already created, Quests should be detailed in this Guild Subforum in accordance with the Template and Rules.
♥ PM Your Little Phony with the link to your Quest thread (specifying which you are applying for if there is more than one Quest in the thread) and titling your message "RLC Application". [If you want to keep your Quest information private, such as if it is for a surprise gift, you may PM the Quest details directly instead of linking to a thread.]
♥ We will consider all confirmed RLC applications before announcing our decision, and inform you via PM with a price quote if your application has been chosen.
♥ Please note that if there are more applications than slots, there can be no guarantee that your application will be picked! The decisions will in that case be made through choice and/or RNG
♥ When your application has been chosen and you approve the price quote, full payment is required upfront through Paypal subject to 'handling' fees equivalent to Paypal's fees... [We're really sorry, but they're really killer!]
♥ When payment is completed, work will be started on your Phony. Projected time for completion is 1 month [may be shorter or (rarely) longer].
♥ As soon as work on the Phony is completed, your Blister Pack will be delivered to you! 8D
