Sparkey Posted May 3, 2014 Report Share Posted May 3, 2014 I took a couple of things down to a local craft store and put them on consignment. If it goes well I will bring down some more pieces. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

edward Posted May 4, 2014 Report Share Posted May 4, 2014 I took six pieces over the Holidays to a consignment craft store, and only sold one piece in sixty days, so it really didn't pay for me to put items in the store, as I do craft shows in the areas, and I really don't like to jack my prices up. Maybe some people have luck, but I sure didn't. Just my opinion. edward Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kepy Posted May 5, 2014 Report Share Posted May 5, 2014 Hope you have better luck than I. Tried a few pieces in a craft store. Didn't check for a while and when I went back the place was gone including my pieces. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LarryEA Posted May 8, 2014 Report Share Posted May 8, 2014 Rusty, What % do they charge. I went to a place that charged 40%. Which in essence raises your price by 60%. Example: you want $10 they charge 40%. To get your $10 multiply by 60% equals $16 Now they take 40% of $16 is $6.40 and you receive $9.60 which is almost what you wanted. Just curious.

Sparkey Posted May 9, 2014 Author Report Share Posted May 9, 2014 (edited) Larry she gets 20%. She will either add 20% on to what I want or take 20% from what I priced it at, it's my choice. I had her add 20%. I wanted $25. She has it priced at $31 and change to cover her 20%. When it is sold I will get $25.
