How should I price my items?

Submitted by evilgoatmonster on Tue, 30/06/2009 - 12:21am
Does anybody have any better ideas on how I should price my items? I usually just put them the highest on my sw page but I sell some items really fast and I only get a few neopoints from them and then I almost never sell some items. I only make like 20k a day. I am only a shop size 40 though and I sell neggs. I usually have over a page in stock and I think for neggs that is a lot.

the items that sell fast slowly price up. the items that dont sell price down to something fair but profitable still maybe. shop exposure is key to from my experience the more people you get to your shop the more chances you have to sell stuff. http://www.neopets.com/browseshop.phtml?owner=g3nu1n3r3v0lt&misc Quarter brick Half a brick Whole brick (AYYY)

I usually have about 130 visits a day but all they buy are the items that I make the lease profit on.

time to price those items up i guess. and stock more of them so you don't have to re-price as much.. http://www.neopets.com/browseshop.phtml?owner=g3nu1n3r3v0lt&misc Quarter brick Half a brick Whole brick (AYYY)

I think what would help me the most is a mall that put up a higher notice board add.

yeah if you dont get enough hits that generate sales maybe. castaway only does like once a month ads. when i was there i was putting my own ads up for the weekends but it didn't make much of a difference. http://www.neopets.com/browseshop.phtml?owner=g3nu1n3r3v0lt&misc Quarter brick Half a brick Whole brick (AYYY)

I wish I had the shop size and the nps to join a mall that puts one up for that much.

And you should definitely raise your prices. I picked 3 random items from your shop and the prices are literally the lowest on SW. I can see how you get so many hits. Do raise your prices for more profits.

Is there a certain percentage that I should raise my prices and what do I go by the amount that I bought it for?
