But why making paying for stolen goods an option?
The fact you think that it costs tens of thousands of dollars to commission artists and that theft from independent creatives is okay seem to indicate to me that you're extremely sheltered and morally deviant. Like you obviously are so sheltered that you never even bothered googling how much an artist on DeviantART charges for a commission. Do the police know you think it's okay to shoplift and commit larceny?
