First Drawing Sold

1 July 2014 The case has been resolved, and THE First Drawing STILL has Not Been Sold Yet. And now it is as low as I am willing to let it go.

This was quickly followed up by:

FINALLY! I sold the first drawing I listed on eBay. The buyer paid up front.

More Drawings and Autographed Photos

The original default photo.

Main articles: Commissions and Autographed Photos

1 July 2014 Other Commission Options are available in the separate listings; please read their matching descriptions. The prices are non-negotiable. http://www.ebay.com/itm/191232658445 http://www.ebay.com/itm/191232661699

1 July 2014 The least expensive option I am able to offer is an autographed photograph. Price is non-negotiable. http://www.ebay.com/itm/191232666489

2 July 2014 Attention everyone. Everyone who shopped on eBay today, I want to state that I am astounded with the amount of interest in my handwriting at least. But seriously, a Lot of autograph requests and a few drawing commissions have been made yesterday, the first. Rest assured, I will honor all of the requests and business. But with the number, I have to sort it all out on a spreadsheet first, and I have to make the photographs on 8X10 Glossy and autograph them. And, of course, draw up the commissions. I will dedicate the next couple to few days to all of that, and everything finished will be shipped as I have specified the next day. Everyone will get their respective tracking numbers right after sending out their goods. My goal is to have all of the autographs shipped out on about Thursday, and the drawings either on Friday or the following Monday. Your contributions are a real big help to me and my family. Please have faith and patience. Thank you all so much. And a big Thank you as well to all future customers as well (in advance). Y'all have a good day.

2 July 2014 At most certainly the Beat Bang for your dollar, a Commission WITH ALL OF THE WORKS! http://www.ebay.com/itm/191234636594

LEGO Minifig

2 July 2014 I like this face; misaligned eyes and a clown nose. Silly cute.

Delays

3 July 2014 Attention everyone who purchased an autographed photo on my eBay. I need to get some rest now; I have filled every order, an I still have more to do, including the cutting of the padding for the photos. And it has come to my attention of a flash flood watch in my local area. In a nutshell, I may be delayed in sending out the photos by one day, and then Independence Day is on Friday (legal holiday). I will end up sending the photos out as late as Saturday. And I am still open for all incoming order during this time. All respective requests will be honored and accomplished as swiftly as possible, and all tracking numbers will be relayed respectively shortly after shipment. I thank you all for your patience and understanding. Y'all have a good day and a Happy Birthday to America.

Telegraph Joke

6 July 2014 Any Computer is a modern day Telegraph. Think a bit about it, it is true and funny.

To which Kim Wilson replied:

6 July 2014 I don't think I get the joke. Computers with network connections are a device for transmitting messages without sending physical representations of the messages. They are literally telegraphs.

Relisted

8 July 2014 Just relisted. http://www.ebay.com/itm/191240236944 "(No Frame; See Descript) Original Commissions From Sonichu And Rosechu's Creator"

17 July 2014 AND THEREFORE: ALL DAMN INTERNET TROLLS, CYBER-BULLIES AND HATERS [later added: ALL CAN GO] TO THE LEFT AND THE BACK OF MY ASS; YOU ALL CAN GO F*** OFF; LEAVE ME AND MY FRIENDS, FAMILY AND ASSOCIATES THE HELL ALONE. THE END.

Honor Roll

18 July 2014 I have had a stressful week, with the disc set issue, which has been settled. And the rumor on my grades, which I WAS ON HONOR ROLL THROUGHOUT PROVIDENCE MIDDLE AND MANCHESTER HIGH. If you want confirmation, you may contact the Manchester High office and inquire, and ignore the ones spreading the rumor.

A Facebook user named Jon Theoneeyedguy Webber wrote two comments in response:

How's that possible when you barely passed Mrs. Dorazio's class?

Remember? I was in that class with you...you don't have to lie to be cool

I'm working on it!

18 July 2014 Anyway, I became delayed in making more photos and the more recent commissions. I will do what I am able from how I am feeling, and should the money I got from my PayPal make it to my currently low account tomorrow or Monday. Monday will be the latest I will be able to ship. Thank you for your patience.

eBay trolls Chris

19 July 2014 Right! The CDs have been removed by eBay. I am unable to issue refunds to both people who bought, but I will offer them each a Colored Commission and an Autographed Photo to make up for this. And, complimentary, a cd set will be burned for them anyway. Again, the MAIN PURCHASE FOR THE TWO BUYERS ARE THE COMMISSIONS AND PHOTOS. My most sincere apologies. I am sorry. Stressful Week!!!!!!!

Shortly afterwards, Chris wrote another post on the subject:

19 July 2014 Just noticed the two cd sets sold removed from my sold feed. Did eBay refund the two buyers? I don't understand. Damn you Trolls!!!!!!!!!!

Kim Wilson replied to him with the following post:

Oh, that was probably taken down because of your piracy, Chris. You might want to be more careful about which things you try to bootleg for profit. It can be kind of tricky sometimes. (Still working on your okcupid messages, just got work to go to sometimes!)

Tracking woes

21 July 2014 I have just checked the tracking info for one of my non-US customers to better understand the tracking process of eBay's GSP; I feel it to be confusing here and there, but I have found that after sorting it out, I could better understand where it had gone to and when. And it still began with the Tracking number USPS provided me that led to the GSP in Kentucky. Including my recent experience where I found I might have wrote the provided REF # alongside the provided GSP address more than once on two of the photos. I will take more caution and care to pay better attention to that detail in all future shipments, and then should a mix up happen again, I will then ask for the direct address for reshipment. I am only doing what I am able to like anyone else would do.

After finishing the post, Chris wrote the following reply to his post:

Unlike the lazy Trolls who only use their energy to needlessly bully others for Hatred's reason. Why must people hate another at all? Good Grief.

A Facebook user called Spirit Plumber replied to Chris with the following comment:

Chris, I don't think anyone hates you. It's more like, you've been a source of amusement. Either embrace it, or stop being that.

Chris:

Then everyone should not hate on the one who amuses them.

Kim Wilson soon budged in:

Spirit Plumber is specifically saying they don't hate you.

Chris:

If they REALLY, TRULY do not Hate Me, then they ALL would take down the Cwcki website and it's forum and quite bitch-mouthing and tormenting me with hurtful content and most visually offensive shit images (including images of shit). I am Truly And Sincerely Serious.

It is all NOT FUNNY AT ALL.

Spirit Plumber:

Chris, you've had an interesting life so far. Own it! Be proud of it, mistakes and all. And keep it interesting in a positive sense!

After a Facebook user named Jon Theoneeyedguy Webber wrote a two comments insulting Chris, Chris gave him the following reply:

Barb needed an entertainment center

29 July 2014 drog6961 is the LAST person in the US I will be adding a single character drawing this time around. That Special is Over for this time. But everyone who purchased recently are still eligible for Free Upgrades on the $50 or $100 Commissions. And I need more money for another fresh color ink cartridge, as well as shipping ALL TEN (and Counting) recent orders. I have had to buy groceries, a color cartridge and my mother made me buy her impulsive want of an entertainment center furniture at Goodwill. Good Grief.

A local news story stated, "Virginia State Troopers are competing with state police agencies across the country to see who has the best looking cruiser." Chris responded:
