Question What do you think of these?

OK. I hope nobody gets mad at me for posting this because *I thought* (yeah, THINK in one hand and shit in another.....) I posted it in the proper place but maybe I didn't.
Just delete it if it is not supposed to be in here and I apologize.

See, I was going to post this in your SCHILL folder but since it has to do with the fashion / style opinions of current pendants I am thinking of featuring, I need to ask it here, no?

QUESTION:

Do yous guys like these:

Reason I am asking is because I am thinking of getting a case of 'em.
HOWEVER, I don't wish to invest the money in those if there is not some kind of market for them. See, I buy in BULK. I can't really do onesies-twosies or else my prices would be too high.

Ok, that's all I wanna know. I am asking in a bunch of places but your opinions matter here! Hey, I gotta do my research somehow without spendin' all this money, no?

Why not buy a few to start with and see how well they sell? I mean if you bought say five, and they sold in days, you'd probably be safe with a bulk purchase.

If I bought in THAT small of a number....
my prices would be too high.
Serious. I have to finagle a lot to keep my prices below my competition.

I can MOST LIKELY do this for UNDER thirty bucks.

Now, I have found a guy on e bay who is out in California sellin' stuff like I make for lower than me. HOWEVER, I found that he advertises gemstones and he sell you GLASS instead. I had someone order from him and it's confirmed he is a fake.

HAH!

The kitty is prettier. I've always thought of bats as much more delicate beings, so I don't really see that pendant as doing them justice.

That's just my opinion, though.

I very much like the kitty. It is not my taste per-se, but I know many who would love it. It's a unique piece that isn't so avante garde that it wouldn't have a market. Plus, it ties in to your company name- bonus!!!

General advice- your prices are really good, as is the quality. For something this new and possibly risky (OK, the bat is riskier, but I;m just sayin'), consider what is the smallest number you can buy to keep a simpler necklace at $25-$30. This will minimize your investment and determine the market fun such a fun piece.

That amount ($30ish) sold better for me over the internet, but all the same, those same "simple thirty dollar pieces" could go for $40-$60 (more if the design is really off-beat) at boutiques where people could see and feel the quality firsthand.

Hm, given a little more money, I'd definitely get the cat necklace, especially with a simple colored stone to offset the silver.
