Would you buy awesome handmade Christmas cards off eBay? How much would you pay?

Question by Amanda: Would you buy awesome handmade Christmas cards off eBay? How much would you pay?
Would you buy awesome handmade Christmas cards off of craigslist.com or eBay.com?

If you would…how much would you expect or want to pay for them?

How many would you think you would want? Like…how many cards would you think a set of handmade Christmas cards would have?

What would you like to see on you Christmas cards? Would you prefer them to be more traditional with reds and greens etc. Or would like “artsy” type ones with all colors (not just the basic Christmas colors). Would you like to see “elegant” type ones with silver and gold and maybe light blues?

Im thinking about making some and trying to sell them….
(Looking for ideas and whatnot)

Best answer:

Answer by theimaginarypiano
I would buy handmade christmas cards from online. I think it’s cuter than buying impersonal cards from the store. In handmade packages of cards, I’ve seen them usually come with anywhere from 4-10 cards each. I would sell them for 50cents to a dollar a card, depending on how many you put in a package. You have to make some profit off them, considering you put a lot of work into them most likely, and in order to afford new materials. I think you could market all three of those ideas, whether traditional, artsy, or elegant. Everyone has different tastes.

PS-If you do end up making them, I suggest trying to sell them on Etsy.com as well. Etsy is sort of like an Ebay, but it is for homemade crafts.

Christmas cards – Store bought vs. handmade?

August 21st, 2010 Posted in Handmade Christmas Cards Tags: , , , ,

Question by Sam S: Christmas cards – Store bought vs. handmade?
If you received a handmade Christmas card from a family member or friend *last* year, would you be offended if that person sent a store-bought card *this* year?

I’ve been making handmade cards, but don’t want anyone to be upset next year if I send boxed cards!

Best answer:

Answer by MotherBear1975
If they’re offended, they’re just plain silly. At least you’re sending them a card. It isn’t all that common anymore. Unless they’re complete twits, they’ll realize that sometimes life catches up with you and you just don’t have all the time you used to have.
