DonR Posted June 16, 2012 Report Share Posted June 16, 2012 Kevin, I use both Weebly.com and Webs.com. Both are free and I have had great success on my Webs.com website www.oldcrowwoodcrafts.webs.com My weebly.com website is new and I haven't had a lot of traffic yet but it is picking up. Let me know if you build a website and perhaps we can place reciprocal links. Don R Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Google has a way to set up a store as well. do a search for sales places. DW Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Travis Posted June 18, 2012 Report Share Posted June 18, 2012 Stores who buy wholesale (meaning they buy a bunch of them with money up front) will want to buy it at 1/2 price. However, if they're doing it on consignment, they can't expect the same amount of profit since they're not taking any of the risk or investment. I'd say 30-40% would be reasonable for consignment. I think Etsy is your best bet, but it is easy to get lost with the sheer volume of folks selling. Artfire is another one I'd look into. Here's a couple pages that might also help: http://athomemomblog.com/where-to-sell-crafts-online/ http://www.craftster.org/blog/online-ve ... ade-goods/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
longrifle Posted June 22, 2012 Report Share Posted June 22, 2012 I sell at two stores in town and their consignment rate is 25%. I also sell at the Tennessee artisan market. Theirs is 40 but I sell a lot there. Half seems like a lot to me. Good luck. Rick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
