Quantity vs variety

Submitted by mayarend on Wed, 10/03/2010 - 5:01pm
Hey, so I was thinking... My shop is size 510 now and I got 2 of each of the items I have, so that's like, over 1000 different items... Which gives me like 14 pages My question is: to keep on putting DIFFERENT items or to just stuff more of the ones that sell more? I mean, some of the items I sell could use a larger quantity since they sell 2 or more daily... But some just sit there, so should I go and buy more of those that sell more or just keep my 2 of each plan?

[quote=kirsty_to_stay]Variety is very important, however not at the cost of best sellers being out of stock frequently. Best sellers should be bulked to whatever quantity needed to not sell out in between times when you stock, or to rarely sell out. Then when you have those items in that position it is a good time to vary stock. I don't care what anyone says :P category doesn't matter, the more variety the better. ___________ Kirsty aka "the sensitive one" Silverdragon siggy stealer Tasty tent seller[/quote] ~ May ~ You are right Kirsty ^^ I think now that I reach 14 pages I can bulk my best sellers, since I got enough variety :P And I'm soon reaching Main Market *yay me* (size 510 with enough to upgrade to size 540 right now)

I thought I'd tag along to this thread since it seems slightly relevant. Is there more so a point where you have # of pages VS quantity of items? If that's unclear, I'll try some other words. Should there be a cap to how many pages you normally have? Should you increase quantity of stock instead of variety when you get that far? --- Step outside, take a breath of fresh air, then look down to see if you have a new text message.
