bladesparkBefore commissioning somebody for a fursuit, ALWAYS do your research.
And in particular, make certain you're talking to who you think you're talking to. It turns out that I might have an impersonator. Yes, there appears to be somebody going around, using the name Bladespark and showing pictures of my suits as examples, but they're not me. Not sure what happens if you commission this person, I heard about this third hand, apparently the person he/she approached turned him/her down because of horrible behavior and an absurd price quote. But I'd kind of suggest not commissioning somebody unless you're sure who they are!
How do you do that? I'd suggest you go to the real maker's actual website, and find their actual contact information (and if it doesn't match, there you go) and contact them and make sure they're really who you're dealing with.
A google search should turn up the legit site first. :) "S. Park fursuits" turns up me, for example.
(And now I know I've hit the big time. I've got an impersonator. XD )
