Help on selling photographs at a field show stall?

[Stuart Bailey]

Hello people of DPS,

My girlfriend and I are going to have a stall at a field show in Kent, UK. These shows are for small businesses to sell their products and promote their work.

We are planning to sell a few photographs. We're going to print them at A3 size and frame them up nicely in about an A2 or maybe A1 size frames.

How much do you think we should sell them for? This is the first time we have ever done something like this.
We saw some similar photographs at a small shop in Kent and they were going for £100-£250.
Is this too much to sell them for? I was thinking maybe put them up for £80 then knock them down to a minimum of £30 if they're not selling.

Any thoughts? Help is very much apreciated.


Some of the photographs we are going to sell are these:
Broken Barn (Black & White) on Flickr - Photo Sharing!
Beach Bird Watcher on Flickr - Photo Sharing!
Paw Prints on Flickr - Photo Sharing!
Windmill on Flickr - Photo Sharing!
Train Line on Flickr - Photo Sharing!
Beach Sheds on Flickr - Photo Sharing!
Broken Farm Hut on Flickr - Photo Sharing!


Thanks you.

I'd say it depends on the clientele you're expecting, and how upmarket they are. As it's a 'field show' I'm guessing there won't be a lot of people with cash burning a hole in their pocket, so £80 sounds reasonable. But it would be best to start off a little over what you value them at, and you can always lower the price like you said. You can't put prices up if they're selling well!
