I'm off to a craft fair at the weekend and will have some cards to
sell. I have no idea how to price them. They are in different styles.

Some have stickers on patterned card, some have dacoupage (some is
dufex), some have toppers on background paper and some of the cards are
foiled and/or embossed.

I'm also going to be selling framed photos and no idea how to price those at all.

Anyone got any ideas?

I just send to sell all my A5 cards at a standard £2 - £2.50.

Wouldn't know about jewellery.

Jen sold some candles for me at a rat show on a craft stall, small ones for £3.50 & large candles for £4.50!

Celfy, dont undersell, but be aware that at our xmas thing at school, which i resisted..everyoine was whingeing about the price of the cards, they thought they were lovely ..but that Poundland sell handemade looking cards much cheaper...so my advice....scout around before you start selling, check out the oppositions pricing

and big hugs for texting me to see how mum was..it made me smile and feel fuzzy to think you were thinking of me

I have always worked by the tip in a magazine. Work out roughly the cost of the materials of the card and double it. It usually works out

£1 - £1.50 for A6
£2 - £2.50 for A5
Small square are 1.50 - 1.75
Big Square are 1.75 - 2.00
DL are 1.50 - 1.75

Mainly because the stuff put on them is restricted to the size of the card and therefore keeps the cost reasonable.

Good luck this weekend, hope you sell loads. xx

It was very quiet :( But we had the cheapest cards there so sold some. There was a woman there who had nothing under £3 and didn't sell as much.
