Hi all,
Was chatting to my boyfriend today on whether it would be a good idea to do a few enlargements of a few of my pics (the better ones lol) and try and sell them at a local market. I know a mate of his really wants a couple of the pics from one series though not sure if he'd pay for them lol
I was sorta trying to cost it out and its looking at about $6aus a pic just for the printing for a 20x25cm pic (printing it at a kmart store) then of cause there would be some sorta frame (cheap of course to keep costs down) probably maybe say $3 each (havent really priced this out as yet) - So basically per pic I'd be having to sell one for over say $15-20 a pic to make some sorta of reasonable profit (ie as in to keep the idea going etc).
So what do people think of this sort of idea - Would it work (taking of course other people like the pics)? Would you just print of one set of each series and then take orders? I'd rather not pay to print a few copies etc and then find no one buys them lol
Also would 800x533 pics blow up ok to an A4 size so I don't have to redo originals etc (i usually do 800x reductions to save space)
