No sell it for more if he wants is he'll pay more! If he doesn't you won't have to make a double!

How much did it go for in the auction?

I think whoever bought that, got it for a steal. And, unfortunately, I'd say $104.20 still isn't worth the time and effort to rebuild it. I say you should build another puppet and when you put it up on ebay, e-mail him about it so he can bid on it.

I agree $52 is too cheap, even though you may not be a "pro" just yet maybe, it was still a fair representation of a professional puppet in my eyes. Remember, if you don't value your work at a certain point, then nobody else will. Present your puppet as best you can in your auctions and put a good minimum price on it. That shows people it took skill and effort and materials to build and you intend to recoup that cost.

I think your puppet was real nice and should have probably been put up for a minimum of $75. For the guy requesting, I would ask $125 or more. If he really wants it he'll pay it.

You can let him know you are still new to the pricing game and feel you let that earlier one go for way too little.

Good luck!

well it was only 15 dolars to make him so it wasnt a steal im only 15 and i felt like seeing how much i can get for them i was quite impressed with the final price but the person asking has had 4 auctions they won and not paid through i have a feeling they want him for free but should i add 25 dollars extra for reconstruction work and time would like more advice please

nevermind found the old post. Good job. Yeah you practically gave that thing away. Don't forget that regardless of what the materials cost, they should be paying for your time and talent. Paper only costs a fraction of a dollar but a beautiful drawing can be priceless. Good job!
