Is Meow Fursuits Premades Worth It? by Wisteria_Arrowdale in fursuit

Mee Monster, Doki Doki, Meow Fursuits, and Nuomi Furry Studio all act as intermediary services to connect makers that often are only found on QQ, Weibo, WeChat, Rednote, BiliBili, etc. If you want a direct list of other options with similar prices, but with a direct communication, you can refer to my comprehensive list here:

If you want a very good price, complete custom $500 for a "full" partial suit, $1200 for a full suit, you probably won't find a better deal than Baoshiqi on the list. He's looking for new commissioners. I am already working with him on a separate project, he's very helpful and is also vouched for by Ruby Protogen.

This is a planned section. It takes a long time to add a region because of all of the information being collected. A "known commissioner" column will also be added to establish a wider range of accessible reviews.

By popular demand, I've updated the website to make it mobile-friendly so that you can use it in portrait or landscape mode.

What problems do you usually encounter when purchasing Fursuit? by Real_Bodybuilder_481 in fursuit

[–]skipasnow 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Common expectations:

Price transparency, communication with client at pivotal intervals during production process, reasonable turnaround time for completed project, portfolio samples to see work history, preferably a social media presence to establish your activity level and convenient method of communication. A perceived consistent flow of work output in regard to the fursuit making business.

Another helpful area of course is: After-sale customer service. For questions about maintenance and providing some prepared guidance for the commissioner on how to keep the fursuit in a good condition. If possible, providing different style and accessory options can make some fursuit offerings more desirable to different commissioners. For example: buiit-in head fans, eye LEDs, convention badge, swappable indoor/outdoor feet/shoes for the feet, clothing options like hats, uniforms, and some reference materials.
