Pricing

Below are tables explaining my prices, which I believe to be fair based on the prices of other customizers and effort and time involved in a rehairing job. Because of this, I cannot offer discounts on multiple jobs.


Rehairing: Adult or Baby Pony

Complete Mane Replacement $6.00
New Tail or Tail Replacement  $2.00
Partial Mane Replacement (5-20 plugs) $3.50
Partial Mane Replacement (1-15 plugs) w/ needle & thread* $6.00
Partial Mane Replacement (less than 5 plugs) $1.25
         
*includes plugging fee.  I no longer rehair full manes using the traditional needle and thread method because of the amount of work involved.  Please see the 'About Rehairing' section for more details.

Terms


1. 
Hair will be used from my supply.  If I don't carry the hair a customer wants, he or she is responsible for providing the hair.  You can see my current supply here. My preferred choice of hair is nylon, which Hasbro uses on both their vintage and new ponies.  I carry a large selection of nylon hair in wide variety of colors, and chances are I you will find what you are looking for! :-)  Every once in a while one skein of nylon hair is not enough to rehair a pony, most often in foreign ponies, which sometime seem to have more plugs.   I do my best to use just one skein of hair, but every so often I need to use 1.5 - 2 skeins.  In this case a small additional charge will be added to the total.  Customers will be contacted before rehairing if I believe a pony will need more than the usual amount of hair.  Curly hair will only require one row of plugs; however, the cost remains the same due to the difficult workability of pre-curled hair.

2. Customer is responsible for the cost of shipping both ways. Shipping is usually very minimal, and I will ship any method requested. Seventy-five cents (0.75) is addeded onto to shipping to cover the cost of packing materials. I ship worldwide!  Insurance is required for U.S. customers, but not outside the U.S. I am not responsible for packages lost in the mail if overseas insurance in not purchased.  I take extreme care in the packaging of commissions, which are always sent in boxes! :-) 

3. Payment must be made by one of the following methods: Non-Credit Card Paypal, Money Orders, International Money Orders, Western Union transfers, or USD cash at your own risk.  I may accept a Personal Check if we have done business before or if you have extensive positive feedback at one or more pony-related boards. 

4. A note on damage:  Whenever possible, I do not use an Xacto knife to break the glue seal of a pony's neck; I first attempt to remove the head using a method that is non-damaging to the pony. However, G3 heads in particular can be extremely difficult to remove, and it is often necessary to cut through the lip. When the neck is securely reglued (optional, see order form) any damage that has occurred usually disappears.  A customer can certainly remove the head him- or herself before sending the pony! Also, please note that removing the head of a So Soft pony may alter the flocking of that area. By sending me a pony, the customer agrees that I am not liable for any damage that may occur to the pony (neck or otherwise). 

5. A note on communication: my email is mlprehairing @ comcast.net (remove spaces; they are included to prevent spamming). I will always reply to emails within four days.  If you suspect an email problem, please contact me through the Arena (preferred) as StrawberryFair, or the Trading Post as Strawberry Fair.
