Individual Designer Fairytale Couples Pins
May I please ask your out of pocket expense for Ariel and Eric?
The set I was co oping was $1500.00 and because I didn't list my $350.00 for Rapunzel and Flynn, I got accused of getting her for free as the other 4 totaled $1200.00. Rapunzel is selling for around $325.00 now. If you bring her down to that price, I'll take her. But I want a picture of actual pin. I'm always getting pins with defects and flaws. And I then sell them as my pins have to be perfect.
Molly is right, with no feedback and being new, I'd be nervous not to have buyer protection.
If you sold them on eBay you would pay at least a 13% fee on the entire sale including the shipping charges so the prices you are asking are actually substantially more than what you would make selling there. I personally cannot imagine anyone feeling safe sending payment as a gift ato a member with no feedback and so few posts as there is no protection for them and this is not a $5.00 transaction, the fees are no more than 4% in the US even if the buyer uses a credit card.
You should be sure that your Paypal account is verified and is able to accept payments for goods so that there will be some sort of buyer protection. I would also encourage you to figure in the Paypal fees to our asking price as well as looking at what these pins have been selling for both here and on eBay so that you are in the ballpark of the going rate.
Everyone is new at some point and if you are offering a fair price with protection for the buyers you should be able to sell them.
Good luck!
I don't think anyone is thinking you are long-winded.
The going rate on ebay right now for the set is $1250-1300-ish.

Make sure that the buyer also has a confirmed shipping address and (is also verified) and for those 2 pins that are priced above $250, make sure you use signature confirmation, which is $2.20 to $2.60, depending on if you use PayPal Shipping Assistant or the post office.
I think you should edit your listing to put the price as PayPal goods with shipping included (for the US).
So, these are the prices (calculating shipping at $6 to cover first class mail & signature confirmation and calculating PayPal fees into the mix):
Rapunzel/Flynn: $387.53
Belle/Beast: $263.95
Snow/Prince: $191.86
Jasmine/Aladdin: $212.46
Good luck with your sale. You *may* be able to find someone to take the whole set, if you're willing to sell. It may also help to know what location you are at in case the buyer wants to make local pick-up ararngements
Would you post internationally?
Hey Starry - Is it ok to put it in the co-op if I'm not keeping any myself?
I think so. What happened with Snow White? Also, you might consider joining the Facebook pin groups (there are multiple) and only listing the goods price. Make sure you emphasize that the buyer must have a confirmed US shipping address.
