Hi all,
Just a general query regarding pricing mostly.
I was buying stock transfers from Proworld, Artbrands, etc., in half-dozen lots, which are great, apart from "Mom" instead of "Mum"! Recently I've been buying one at a time (from Ebay - much dearer than Proworld, etc.) and reproducing them on my printer. I've got a range of transfer paper here, cool-peel, hot-peel, etc. which I use.
As I'm not real good at crunching numbers, I'd appreciate hearing from others as to which method is the best, price-wise, ie buying in bulk or printing your own?
Also, while I'm at it, would love to hear from others of mistakes you've made (apart from those dreadful printing stuff-ups that every novice experiences - what a waste!). By this I mean design, presentation, pricing errors, and customers' likes and dislikes, etc. For example, cute, witty wording was OUT last year so I pressed a heap of solid pictures only (Noddy, Wiggles, The Cars, etc) only to find that cute, witty wording is IN this year!!! Solid pictures are out......aaahhhh.
Cheers, Sophie.
