What do you think?

Ladies I need your opinion. It's going to be a craft show. They charge $50.00 per 3 days per 10% of the sales, but I don't have to be there. They do the sales for me. So I can attend another show. What do you think? Should I do it?

That sounds fairly reasonable to me.. I wish we had that kind of stuff here!! That way you can hopefully double your money

50.00 for three days is a good price,and you can mark every thing up 10% more to cover your cost there. what happens if something is missing? do they cover your loss?

I'd ask what their projected attendance is. Then figure out how many bows/things it will take to cover your expenses. Also, find out if there are other vendors like yourself there (to determine amount of competition) and if you're cool with it - then do it! Sounds like a good deal to me! 10% would definitely be worth your time - meaning, if you don't have to go, 10% is a great trade off!

To add 10% more is a great idea!, and I don't know if something is missing they will cover. I hope they do.

They are been doing holiday craft shows for 9 years, and this is their second year doing spring shows. They told me last year was really good, but they don't know how many people are going to attend.

Craft Shows around here are around 90.00. So I would just to see what it is like.

I think 10% is great. I just did a consignment sale and although it was only $10, they took 30%.

Go for it!

That sounds like a great deal to me! I am paying 75 bucks for a 6 hr show! This is my first doing this one and I've been told there's lots of traffic so we will see. Wish they offered something like yours here!
