I think you should keep it at $5 :heart:

People don’t know the time and effort it takes into making these kind of things, and the cost of supplies!

DO NOT drop your prices. :orange_heart:

Don’t let them devalue handmade, artisan products. This is a huge problem in our industry. We need to teach the buyer that we are NOT competing with cheap Chinese mass produced items that are made using slave labor.

If they think the price is too much, they don’t have to buy them. They are not out ‘target audience/customer’ and if they want a cheap scrunchie, they can go to their local discount store and purchase scrunchies for $2.

When you drop your price, it not only devalues your work, it also devalues the work of every other handmade product worldwide.

Stand your ground. We want customers who value handmade artisan products that can’t be bought in just any discount store.

I used to sell hair bows and I always did one pair for $6.00 and two for $10.00. So in this case I’d keep one scrunchie at $5.00 and if your thinking about doing a deal try two for $8.00 . It’s your business and your choice not theirs.
I don’t understand why people don’t value handmade art. Art in any form takes time, supplies and most don’t think of how much is all included in the price.

i think you should keep it at 1 for 5$! that’s a good price, and if you’re wanting to do a deal, maybe 2 for 8$?
