New fabric (?) tails

[Miyu]

Oh, I dislike his business management as well I'm hoping that possibly the ease of selling these tails (hard to have bad customer service on these) will help him get his footing into having better service for his silicone tails. I'd love to see him take more time on silicone tails, like Finfolk or Merbellas does - real customers are willing to wait in order to have a better-quality tail, and if he isn't willing to match quality with his peers, then perhaps he should lower his prices to reflect the quality.

That being said, I wasn't trying to be mean or anything, you know I love you Arion Sometimes I just have to speak my mind from the viewpoint of a small business owner/costume designer, and I just wanted to point out that advertising is okay I mean heck, I don't get squat for pageviews if I'm not out there constantly pimping myself out on the internet!



On another note, I did post on his page that I'm holding out for other colours as well. I love the design, but I am not one for an all-blue tail! I'd rather have any other colour all-over than blue, LOL!

its odd that I been hearing good and bad things about thare tails but at less he did something good this time ithink its great for beginning erfolk tails but I don't think thare tails are still affordable since the price is still high for adults but the price is good for children I hope this tails are good as he said they are

Honestly for a fabric tail the prices are great. Most fabric tails start from 150+. FinFun's tails are the same price roughly as Eric's, and Magictails are 160ish.

Just hope that the fabric is a good quality one, not some cheapo spandex that rips easily.

Makin' it is cheaper!

not really.You have to buy a monofin, the fabric (and if you buy custom fabric it'll rocket the price up.), any notions you need (thread, elastic, extra fabric, beads, jewels, sequins, cords, etc) After all that, it'll for sure come out to be over $100 and somewhere around the same price as Eric's.

Agreed. After scale printed fabric, monofins, and shipping costs, my tails have come out to around $100 to make. This is a good deal!

what i had thought about doing once he had some color variety
was making a neoprene pocket to wear under the tail or something akin to that to kinda make it look a bit thicker and less see through and maybe adding some fins and stuff.
something to hold me over til i can get a new silicone or latex tail

The fluke proportionally on the teenage girl on the right looks WAY to small in my opinion.

I think he's only offering the one monofin in it for now, the FINIS Mermaid Fin Monofin (which it says on his website is best suited for children 12 and under) - so it probably is a bit on the smaller side for the teenager-ish range.

I've heard they snap and the straps won't stay on.

I love the tail fabric! Have I mentioned it already? We don't have anything like it here in Australia!

I just saw an ad for this on FB and was a little taken aback. "There's nothing like it!!!" Uh, yes there is... didn't Magictail come up with this concept in the first place? The way he phrases it makes it sound like it was his idea to print the fabric this way... :/ He also advertised the price for this tail with a photo of one of his silicone ones saying STARTING AT ONLY $98!! When no, the adult one is $121, and the CHILDREN'S one is $98... and the tail in the photo is silicone... UGH. Just misleading advertising. Seems dishonest to me. Why not post a photo of the children's eco with the correct price on it and go from there? Grrr.
