<p>[QUOTE="evelyb30, post: 4474019, member: 36"]We have a mix - some do one but most do two. Sales with lots of merch do three. Some have prices on everything, but others only price the "good" stuff and the others are subject to bundling. One company does flat prices for jewelry items. They're high on lots of things but have a record of missing the gold bits. I needless to say keep going.(LOL) </p><p><br /></p><p>My personal selling is all on line, at least until I finally close down, so the store thing isn't relevant. With shipping so crazy high I can't sell anything over a certain size, and medically can't go over toting about 5 pounds. Five pound purse plus five pounds of stuff is the limit, which needless to say puts a crimp in bookselling. Sometimes you can make a pile but I need help getting it to the car. Can't lift a lot of glass. Doesn't matter how good it is if it lands me in surgery. Again. I tend to stick to jewelery, or did until recently. Tried textiles etc and those were worse than the jewerly. Wall art does OK, subject to the size limitations. It's gotten to the point of being down to 2-3 sales per week, and with my limits I can't really diversify that far. Add in the MS and... might as well get out while I can.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
