Pets
It is with a heavy heart that Aywas brings you the opportunity to participate in the cash auctions of hundreds of custom pets. The reason for this is that the previous owner of the pets has caused us to fall nearly $5000 in debt due to chargebacks. I have a rant thread that goes into some detail regarding the situation.
We have to seek out a way to make ourselves whole for the damage done to us--both in terms of money lost and potential damage to the good standing of our payments account. As you can understand, if the chargebacks (which now number over a hundred in the past two months from this one individual) cause us to lose our payment accounts, that would be devastating. A high number of chargebacks can cause payment processors to cancel accounts with a company due to high risk.
Our PayPal account is not currently affected by this problem, but I have no idea if the volume of chargebacks on Amazon Payments could affect it in the future.
The USD Auctions page reflects all of the custom pets that we have decided to reclaim from the player who filed the chargebacks. You can pledge a bid on the pet by entering an amount and an invoice e-mail address.
Please note:
1. Bids made through USD auctions cannot be canceled.
2. Please place a bid only if you are committed to buying the pet if you win it.
3. Pets come "as is" as we have no idea what rules may have been placed on them. We will help mediate any issues between the new owner and any previous owners.
4. We would prefer accepting payment on our Amazon Payments account to prevent the delinquent account (it's in the negative) from being sent to collections and/or legal action taken against us for not having the disputed funds. If it cannot be paid through this, we will accept PayPal.
5. All auctions end in approximately seven days. End dates are listed on the auctions themselves.
6. When the auctions are over, your total bill (all your auctions won) will be invoiced to you. Upon successful payment, all pets won will be placed into your lair.
Some highlights below:
It is not a usual thing for Aywas to take repossession of pets on a banned account. This situation is unique, grave, and we hope will not have to be repeated in the future. Ultimately, we appreciate any support, because this is one of the worst situations we have found ourselves in.
As a final note, any comments making threats toward the individual who filed the chargeback will be removed without notice. This happened on tumblr before and it will not be permitted here. Believe me, I am just as angry as you are, but threats will only make things worse, and they cannot be tolerated.

Teo isn't one of the search options? (I can't filter to only the Teo Genus)

Pet, Teo, Selkie, Orbkin... are all missing from the search list in the USD Auction area. I don't know if others are missing.

Fannish (FreeFlier) (#1818) Thank you. I shared this with my all-too-stubborn mother and I hope that she believes me when I say that this is not a scam. I still doubt she will let me buy anything, but I trust this site and I want her to trust it too.

IJskoningin (#56630) I have done about 5k worth of trades from other sites, so it wasn't 8k cash to Aywas directly.
I had a stable-ish job, but I was unemployed for a while, and I have no children- so when I have money, I tend to set half aside for the future and half I spend on not going mad with stress. XD
However, to be fair I do actually spend about 2kUSD total a year on online pet games, it's just a matter of me consolidating the other sites into this one, is what has swelled the numbers so rapidly on this site. :D

@ #1818
lol. So far I only have put money into this site. No where near as much as you though. I will be putting more in though to help the cause. :) Though I can honestly say I have put that much into Bath and Body works. :(
A general question. Anything we buy now and use amazon payments will go to help out correct?

A user a few pages back (forgot who) raised a question I'm curious about. Will the USD bids we've won go towards our Bonus feature for the Mayday event, or no? I plan to bid on a few anyway if they're in my budget, so I'm mainly just curious. xD;
Also, thanks for hanging in there, Slash! You can get through this!

....Wasn't this individuals credit card stolen? And thus that's the reason for the charge backs? And she was banned for it without being heard out?

Saphire Flames (#49838) Seeing as I personally have invested well over 8,000 USD into this site if you include all the trades I have done, I do not find it outside the realm of possible.
In fact, I find it entirely too possible.
Also, it was only $2,500 (I personally have 1,300 USD in paypal statements to Aywas since the new year. LOL)- The bank is double chargebacking (which will be solved ASAP) which is the 5k total.
Biolume ☆ﾐ (#1339) Thank you!!! It does make me feel MUCH better! :D
