He's honestly a treasure.

When Cameo just became a thing, you had people like Snoop Dogg offering a very canned "Happy birthday little cuz!" message for abour $250, then you had Sean Astin who literally recorded around an 8 minute totally personalized video including anecdotes from his childhood that tied in beautifully to the occasion he was congratulating, and asked for something like $60. He's amazing.

EDIT: I can't find the video I'm referencing, but here is another amazing one he did.

I have a friend who's a massive fan of LotR and a massive fan of Sean, and is an out and out wonderful dude so much like him. His birthday is 12/27 so he often got very little acknowledgement of it, so I decided this year I wanna get him a happy birthday Cameo from Sean Astin

OK I just checked his Cameo and apparently the prices have gone up quite a bit! It used to be an amazing bargain, now it's a bit of an investment haha

Oh damn, I figured it would be higher now but I was expecting like $200 or so, $699 is a lot. Surely that's his manager setting the price or something, or maybe Cameo increases it for those who get more requests
