Cards in handmade goods catagory

[Maelbrigda]

my cards don.t sell very well on ebid. I did wonder if it was maybe because they are listed under crafts>hand made goods rather than under the relevant catagories in occasions & seasonal. I do write handmade in all my listings so should I move them over. What do other card sellers do?
I feel my prices including postage are still cheaper than shop bought cards so that shouldnt be an issue and ive been told they are nice but i only sell 3 or 4 in a year!

IMO Penni I think handmade cards need a category of their own rather than being under crafts. A handmade/handcrafted section with sub cats would be a great idea.

Maybe list half of them in one place, and half in the other category.......then you would have coverage in both.....

You're already doing that Penni and, as you say, it isn't working. Why not start a thread for a handmade category with suggested sub cats and get yourself heard (well, read in this case)?
