Well, good news!
« on: September 27, 2013, 07:15:04 am »
I had come on here a while back with my Duck planter, and was told it wasn't worth much, and were basically a dime a dozen. It was kind of discouraging....... ..but, it ended up selling on Etsy!! I paid $1.00 for it, and it sold for $10, so can't complain!  ;D

Yep, that's the one!  :) I think others had said $10 was pretty high, and would need a good headwind or tornado.  :D So, I was just happy I sold it for a decent price, and it didn't take long.  :)

I have 3 stores on Etsy, it's not my only item I've sold.  ;) The profit on one item is all that matters......all of the items I sell adds up.  :)
