Hey there friends! I hope this message finds all of you doing well and I pray that each of you will have joy through your weekend!
For this week, instead of a regular shop update, I wanted to host an auction! These will become regular for me, as I am trying to have at least something in my shop each week. Auction weeks will be much smaller than regular shop updates and generally I’ll only have 1-3 pieces max and this will hopefully open up new opportunities for those of you who miss out on other sales.
Here is everything you need to know about auctions:
Each sculpture will be available for a 48 hour auction on my website, through a listing - very similar to a shop drop, however the photo will have a box underneath and instead of “add to cart” it will show previous bids and allow you to also place your bid. Once the auction ends, the highest bidder will have 24 hours to pay their winning bid amount + shipping.
💗 Starting on Friday May 1 at 2pm EST
💗 Ending on Sunday May 3 at 2pm EST (Check the time zone!)
- She will be taken to the post office monday/tuesday for shipment. <3
*** please ignore the “buy it now” price - I have it set high so the auction can go on, but I do not expect anyone to pay that price
- Bid increments are $1
- Automatic bidding is available and will bid $1 for you once a bid is placed, once you set your cap bid
- Popcorn bidding is available for the last minute and will end once there are no more bids placed in the last minute. This protects against swipers and gives everyone a fair shot at bidding, even with slow wireless speeds! (Swiper, no swiping!)
⭐️ The highest bidder will win the sculpture shown. Please pay ASAP once winning the auction!
- Winner will pay taxes and shipping which is calculated at checkout. Usually averaging $9-$12 for domestic and $20-$40 for international. *International buyers are responsible for any VAT + fees that may accrue.
⭐️ As always, if you have any questions, you can dm me on social media or you can respond to this email!
💗 SUBSCRIBERS (paid, only on facebook) 💗 There is no possible way to open these up any earlier for subscribers, so the auction will run normally for subscribers as well as everyone else. Next week, during my regular shop update, I will lock my shop for early access to subscribers! <3
Here is everything that will be available for auction, along with the starting bid:
Victoria
She stands 8.5” tall and comes with 3 removable parts: Angel, Devil (can be changed as to which one is on her shoulder) and a clay bible with the Bible verse “resist the devil and he will flee from you” James 4:7, which fits in her hands.
Starting bid: $250
There will be 2 LovePupz:
Loudy
And Bowie
Both will have a starting bid of $100
These last few weeks have been amazing with the love and support you guys have all shown! I haven’t had time to respond to everyone but I have read so many of your messages and I seriously could never say thank you enough. Y’all have changed my life and I am forever grateful that I’ve been given the opportunity to follow my dreams and it’s entirely because you all enjoy my art so much. I know I say it a lot.. but you guys really have no clue how much this means to me. So thank you… from the bottom of my heart! <3
With love,
Lish Cooke
