Pricing Question

[Former_Member]

Hi all,

I am fairly new to selling on etsy, and only recently have gotten everything set up. I've been trying to promote, but I'm still not having any sales.

My question now is: Are my prices fair?

I try to keep them a reasonable price, while still being fair to myself in terms of the time & material cost.

What do you think is a good price range for original ACEOs? What about ACEO prints? Bookmarks: Originals and Prints?

Is there just not much interest in collecting art cards anymore?

It's hard for me to say whether your prices are fair because I really don't know what an ACEO is. Perhaps you could explain that in your profile or descriptions for people like me who may be out of your niche market.

Sorry I wasn't much help, but I do like your artwork!

xoxo,

Hi there. I agree with HayleysPaperLove. I hace no idea what an aceo is. I know that watercolor is the hardest type of painting to do and your collection looks lovely. But what is "aceo"???

[Former_Member]

ACEO stands for: Art Cards Editions & Originals. They are miniature collectible pieces of art, the size of standard playing cards.

I should definitely add that info to my item descriptions :)

I think your prices are great and fall within the range of similar original aceo paintings.

There are many great articles on pricing to guide you.

On a unrelated note. I think it would be great to see your artwork with a neutral background and/or cropped to only the artwork for the first image.

thanks so much for the feedback!
i've added a brief explanation of "ACEO" to each of my listings, and i'll now work on getting some better first images.

www.fotofuze.com may be of some help. It does get annoying sometimes but sometimes does wonders...
