The pricing system is time based, so more detailed clothing means a higher price. Most of my double versions (outfit+coat) easily reach $35-$40, and I try to speed up and contain myself because I don't like overpricing because I was embroidering the seams.
With auctions I don't time myself, hence why they more often have that bit of embroidering that I can't do with customs. If I had an auction design priced the same as a custom, I'd probably reach $50-$60 for double versions quite easily.

I absolutely LOVE your clothing designs :)
I've noticed a few people asking you if you would do YCHs with them, have you ever thought about doing them as collaborations? Splitting the money made off the the auction between you and the other artist? Just asking lol maybe bringing a new spin to your auctions lol.
All the designs really are lovely :) each with it's own flair. You have a lot of talent.

Thank you so much, and it probably would be doable, but I'm very fastidious with my art being edited and the problem is that with human characters the anatomy is already there, so I would need to do the face and that's it, but anthros have multiple arms, have differently shaped legs, so the outfit would need to be edited alongside the mannequin. So the other person would need to edit my art with their style to fit the character of the buyer and I don't feel comfortable with that.
The other option is for me to edit my own base, which is doable, but for certain characters it would require so much editing that the price paid by the buyer would end up being much lower for what I worked for. I spend tot time to make the outfit and I HOPE to get that back with the bids, but if I offered a YCH with that outfit, I'd need to count in also the time to make the character and if the bidding doesn't reach a high enough number, I risk having to complexively spend +6/7 hours of drawing for $20. And while I may sound cheap talking only about the money/time ratio, I do have a very limited amount of free time, so the time I spend on art, I like to seen a reasonable feedback from it.
But one day I swear I'll give it a try and we'll see. ;)

Doesn't make you sound cheap at all. An artist deserves to get paid for what they produce. I feel you on the whole YCH thing. I put a lot of effort into my own art and when I only get the starting bid it's kind of - let's say disappointing lol. I use to start the bids at only 20, but there have been so many full detail images that only went for that 20 that I now make the SB higher for those or add a ladder option. Anyways, point is that I understand that lol. I usually make it so if the character is complex (multiple arms and such) there may be a slight increase in price or that the limbs would not be added depending on the YCH. I don't like working with them too often, in fact, I don't think I've had anyone commission me with multiple limbs lol. They would definitely be a difficult character to do.
I would love to work with you one day when and if you decide you would like to try it :)

Thank you for the nice offer, you comment actually prompted me to convert the design I was currently making so now I have put it on the sideways base, which is easier to edit, and I'll give the YCH a try, wish me luck. T_T
The ladder option is definitely an idea worth exploring, though I've always had a mental block about them because when I put something up for auction I like to have it finished and not need to edit it again. YCHs are different because you start on an editable base, but usually when I do a 'complete' auction I am a bit unwilling to re-edit it because I posted it as 'finished' in my mind. ^^;
