Probably the more items you have to list that way the more chance you have of getting offers. I offer "best offer" on some of my llstings but not all.

But I do love it when they ignore that Best Offer button and pay full price :)Kimberly Hutmacherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05544279741867167860noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1776435293970735440.post-73605383059403841172014-07-21T19:01:22.854-07:002014-07-21T19:01:22.854-07:00I still (personally) can't get past that princ...I still (personally) can't get past that principle that if I use a "best offer", I'm telling my customers that I'm not serious about my price in the first place. I can't bring myself to do it. I have used it once and so far have had NO offers. The principle of the thing really bothers me.Kayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10807000144410153811noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1776435293970735440.post-35997011391112760692014-07-13T08:48:01.752-07:002014-07-13T08:48:01.752-07:00I disagree that Pam is "hurting" anyone....I disagree that Pam is "hurting" anyone. We've all been there - it's a learning process. When I did craft shows other vendors used to tell me what I should sell my things for. I listened in an effort to learn but in the end, it was my business and had nothing whatsoever to do with them and I priced as I saw fit. I listened to my market and time and time again I sold for a profit while they sat with inventory.Shebarienoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1776435293970735440.post-54990119068047244382014-07-12T09:56:16.985-07:002014-07-12T09:56:16.985-07:00I've sold those nesting owls for $19.99 last y...I've sold those nesting owls for $19.99 last year and mine was missing the small one.

Those wooden puzzles are AMAZING and I think you could have gotten $20/each for a couple of them (I recently sold a wooden puzzle for that) - it might take a little longer though. your items are always really unique, you obviously have a good eye, don't underestimate that!BeachThrifterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01060011543518160830noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1776435293970735440.post-43047801648839642802014-07-08T11:33:26.876-07:002014-07-08T11:33:26.876-07:00Lorraine...that total is for 7 days..just wanted t...Lorraine...that total is for 7 days..just wanted to make sure you knew. It seems like I've had a really good week but it definitely isn't always like that...wish it was! I'd like/need to make a profit of at least $500/week! I've listed some buttons in my Etsy shop last night and today and haven't had hardly any views yet. In my experience, it seems that Etsy is slow. I list stuff and a few days later it will still say "O" views. I know I don't list regularly though so I suppose that's why. I'm sure your sales will pick up. I've heard that July is a slow month. ~~PamPamela Wadehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08462039842089023538noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1776435293970735440.post-17063132642510976072014-07-08T11:16:15.914-07:002014-07-08T11:16:15.914-07:00Well, I'm jealous of YOUR sales Pam!!

I'm starting to get very depressed. A lot of my Lego lots ended without a sale. I've got to relist them all later. I've got some things I have to get listed today. Maybe that will jumpstart my sales.
