Do you prefer adopt auctions or set price adopts ?

I'm curious to find out what you guys think about adoptables + what works best [for either the customer or artist] - auctions or set price adoptables. and whether holding adopts for people for set amounts of time is worth it.
just generally anything on the topic of adoptables !!

for those who don't know : adoptables are basically a design that an artist sells so the customer can use the design as their own character / whatever object it is. different creators have different rules and prices.

i personally like holding auctions as it puts less pressure on me as i'm not starting it off at a very high price. the only problems are underselling your work / people not interested enough to bid / people making silly bids.

then again, set price adopts are great to buy, as you know the price is going to stay the same and it's generally first come, first serve. then again, time zones and so forth could cause problems for those really interested in a particular artists designs.

what are your thoughts ? please feel free to share them !! <3
 
Set price anything is better... for the customers, at least. I can't stand when an auction starts at 10 TBT and hits like 3k by the end of the day.
 
Set price is better. Auctions can be fun I guess but some of the prices go way too high by the end of the day.
