Could someone please tell me what a reasonable price is, to charge for felt finger puppets? I thought about $1 -$2 but I do not want to overcharge.

I set the price at $2.50 ea or 3 for $6.00. so you can say - save 20% when you buy 3!

tax included which is another 8%

Sounds like a good price.Luckily my felt is old good quality wool felt which you don't see often in shops these days

I have a small bit of antique wool! Lucky us!

There is charging too much and then going in the opposite direction. Not sure which bit of the world you are in but for either the US or Australia $2 sounds acceptable and if it were me I would then sell as individual for the above price and a set at another. So $2 for one and then $5 for 3 for example

I have only a few ,which I made as extras at Xmas so I thought I would try them out at the market seeing it is Easter school holidays & Grandparents like to buy their grand kids something which doesn't break the bank

Depends on where you are selling them..I would have thought .50c each would be reasonable and maybe 5 for $2 if they think their getting something for nothing they tend to buy, hope this helps..Marian

Thanks but I think there would be at least 50c worth of thread felt etc in a puppet

I offered them in a €1,50 package of 5 and did not sell a single set - too expensive according to many that liked them.

Decent felt isn't cheap .Wonder what else they could buy for that price which would entertain kids for along time & didn't break.
