I have never had a faerie shop and as such cannot tell you whether it's a popular category or not, although I'm guessing it's probably not a shopper's favorite. Having a look at your shop reveals nothing wrong really, it's nicely stocked, attractive and the prices seem fine. The only suggestion I can think of from the top of my head would be advertising on the shop ads board to establish yourself a regular customer base and give yourself some visibility. It's always worked like a charm for me so far =)

[center] Its probably a combination of many things... The smaller the shop, the lower the price mark-up they can manage. At your size, most of your hits are coming from the shop wizard, most likely. To increase hits you could try running boards on the shops board, pricing a quarter of your items at SW prices with no markup, perhaps reduce your price markup on expensive items, and increase it on low items. Honestly, as a maller, there is typically no need to price anything below 1k... Its easier to keep track of items if they're higher, plus it ups your price margins... ------------------------------------------------------------------- [url=http://www.neopets.com/browseshop.phtml?owner=raine_storme&misc]~~ Come visit my map shop ~~[/url] [/center]

While being main market size most certainly helps, you don't need to be in order to make reasonable profit off your shop. Mine isn't even Spooky Market size yet, which means it gets roughly the same exposure as hers, and I get a good amount of sales on a daily basis.

I would advertise on the shop boards. I do that whenever I am on and it helps me a lot. =)

I think your shop looks good as you have plenty of stock. I say keep the good work up and upgrade as often as you can :D My Shop http://www.neopets.com/browseshop.phtml?owner=buy_swap_or_sell&misc and Spots available at Pets Paradise Market Place for shop sizes 550+ http://www.neopets.com/~Vegemite_Kid

[quote]UR ship size is 103[/quote] agreed!!

wow that first banner is pretty though anyway, i believe that earning profit from a smaller shop comes from playing the inflation game. Considering what items will inflate, mass stock and price them a bit higher, and ignoring the items that inflate that will deflate. Also, stocking majority of items at wiz, giving the impression that everything is priced cheaply influencing shoppers to buy multiple items, giving you a chance that they buy an items over wiz price.

Nice body. Now for not so random note, I think your shop looks great. It is certainly better looking than mine. The prices are cheap. You definitely need to advertise your shop more. Since you are only getting buyers from the shop wizard. Advertising helps a lot in the shop boards. Do not think that it does not work. You must create a thread and reply to the "buyers" threads out there. I know it helps me a lot when I'm not in a 4M advertisement.
