Furry Red Monster Puppet on eBay

[paul the puppet]

Recently I have started selling my hand built puppets on ebay auctions, but I would prefer to sell them on a BUY IT NOW listing. If anyone has any tips on pricing puppets, I would be very greatfull

Here is the ebay listing of my latest puppet build

Oh wow Paul, that's a beautiful puppet.
I really don't know anything about pricing puppets but an idea for a strategy might be to sell a few on auction and see what the bids get to and maybe use that as a guide as to what people are willing to pay for the,

Thanks for the comments guys. More puppets coming soon.

Very cute puppet but seeing the final bid I have to say I think you need to set a reserve price higher than that. It sure looks like you invested some time in making the little guy and I doubt very much that the final price compensated you very well for your time and materials. It seems to me you shouldn't settle for less than £100.00. If you click on the link now it shows several other auctions for similar items and most of them are priced higher than £100.00 so I think you'd be in line with other sellers.

Whatever you decide, keep up the good work and best of luck!

Thanks for the advice Puppetainer. I'll be putting the next one on a BUY IT NOW auction.
