Cheap-Cheap

That's the way we have to price our stuff if we ever want to sell any of it.
We do a lot of small stuff in the $20.-$50 range. These items sell quite well as they are easy for the folks to haul them off.
We try to get $250. for our 4 ft Bears but usually get jew'd down a little.
Our flowers all sold and the highest brought $60.00. We would have liked a little more for all the painting work that went into them but they brought us a lot of attention and some cash so we aren't complaining.
We are amazed at every show at what some people think is too high and the next will think that it's the worlds best bargain.
Good luck,
later

Here's a better view:

Lynn is standing behind some of our smaller Bears.
The large one sold for $70.00, then they went down a few $'s each size with the smallest bringing $25.00.

This Welcome Bear brought $225.00 with the small bench and flower pot. The Earnhardt "8" fetched $40.00, the small Dog on the bench went for $25.00.

These sell good and are so easy to do and take very little room on the trailer. We will have lots of these for the next show. It is carved from a red cedar slab, finished with a couple coats of poly and sold for $55.00. When Lynn put the price tag on it I said "Oh Yea", but, a few hours later when the nice lady paid $55.00 cash, I had a different tone to my "Oh Yea".
Good luck and I hope that you get more for your stuff than we do for ours.

Dale I have to agree with wayne and lynn, make a lot of cheap small stuff and go with the 20-50 buck range. Have some nice big fancy things with big money on it and it will be a drawing card till it sells. Brenda made that dragoon fly for a draw and we put 150 bucks on it. That was the first thing to go LOL Go figure. 10 $20 sales is the same as one 200 dollar sale. LW
