Ravvana · October 13, 2009, 06:10:36 PM

$USD customs are pretty standard here at TheStable. As long as this thread still has events running, these will be open.

Prices
Package A: $10 - 2 horses (for non-owners only)
Package B: $15 - 2 horses (for owners)
Package C: $20 - 2 horses plus 1 foaling paddock voucher** (for everyone)

**a foaling paddock voucher will be automatically changed into a foaling paddock as soon as Garney finishes the art -- foaling paddocks are required to breed your horses

Instructions
Please post here with the name of your package at the top of your post in bold and in red. Then fill out the following form, one per horse:

QuoteName:
Owner:
Breed:
Gender:
Coat:
Reference Picture/s: (if any)

You can purchase as many packages as you want. There are correctly unlimited spots.

Send payment via PayPal to mcclammys @ aol . com (without the spaces, of course). Make sure that you put your username somewhere in your payment so I know who to credit! I ask that you do this before I start your order, as a safeguard for me. All orders should be completed in one week or less after being placed, unless you order a great number of packages. I will also be happy to change your customs if you are not happy with them.

Please note that WillowDragon colors all of our Appaloosas, so if your order includes one or more of these spotty horses, it may take slightly longer for your order to be completed.

Thanks so much, and happy ordering!

If you don't have $USD to spend, fear not, as I sell most everything but full customs for virtual currency, and often do free giveaways, as well.

Ravvana · October 13, 2009, 06:10:58 PM

Ravvana · October 13, 2009, 10:56:11 PM

Thanks, Ryuu

I'm afraid I haven't given the poor horses the time they really deserve, but now that we have a stable (haha) home, things should just get better from here on out

I have bad luck with raffles so I like taking up several spaces in the list =p

I wish I had USD to spare.. *loves adopties*

Ravvana · October 14, 2009, 09:57:56 AM

Being bad and logging on at school... YLO, you can win as many prizes as your number comes up for, it's all a game of luck

I'll accept SG and update the ticket list as soon as I get home!

I'm not sure what you mean by this? TheStable horses have always been tradeable, much like TheKennel dogs. Sales for currency require the seller to have a registered barn, and there's usually a 10% tax, although that tax is currently not in use due to the forum switch.

TheStable horses are not tradeable on Secundi yet -- as they aren't integrated into the Secundi system at all. There are no passports to bring horses from the old world to Secundi.

YourLoveOnly · October 15, 2009, 04:08:03 AM

^ Ravv, before someone might get confused: that means they can be traded on the forum, they're just not Secundi pets like the painted unicorns, kennels dogs etc and won't appear on your pet page.
They're just regular adoptables like they've always been =]

Ryuu, did I mention I <3 you? =3

*waits to see premade horsies before buying tickets*
I'll want tickets anyway xD I just like seeing prizes first =p
Though I can't imagine bad looking Stable horses..

indigowulf · October 15, 2009, 06:33:15 AM

For the record, if I win any light horses in the raffle and anyone has a draft they dont want, trading shall commence

Im going all draft stable, so lights will always be open for trading discussion.

SplitX · October 15, 2009, 12:50:45 PM

SplitX wants 1,000 tickets!

Ravvana · October 15, 2009, 05:17:05 PM

I'd be happy to take you up on that, if I win drafts. I do like them, but I like the others better. And since I have none at all atm, I don't mind which I start with lol

Ravvana · October 16, 2009, 09:54:21 AM

Ticket holder list has been updated

Just an update that I will be away this weekend at my last horse show of the season. I should still have some internet access, but no access to PSP or any of my files. I've decided that I will open the auction on the 20th, as soon as the raffle is over. This way the horses will be lovely, not all rushed through the morning before I leave

SplitX · October 16, 2009, 10:19:04 AM
