“Angel Dragon” fursuit sets new auction price record of $11,575.
The auction on Furbuy beat the recent record of $8,025 for Lavender Corgi, sold on 10/11/14. The “Angel Dragon” is by PhoenixWolf Fursuits, maker of the popular suit for Telephone. The contest of 187 bids ended on 2/14/15. There was controversy when some bids inflated the price to $14,000 before they were removed. A followup article will share comments from Furbuy admins, and the seller. (Confirmation of payment is still pending.)
