Auctions or straight sales?
12 years ago
I'm working on several more pre-made artsy-fartsy looking dolls, like the two I auctioned off on here previously (and the one I sold at the AC art show this year). I should have a bear up soon and have many more animals being designed and planned. The auctions worked well I think, but I was wondering if you guys would prefer to see some of them sold straight through Etsy or for direct sale on here instead?
I know some people don't like participating in auctions and I don't want to turn anyone off, so I just wanted to get some thoughts on straight sale vs. auction for dolls.

Also, really love your work! Whatever you choose to do I will def plug you on my page because it deserves to be seen and sold.
Also, know what might be a neat idea when? Maybe contact some popular artists and see if you could do a thing where you make a doll based off their design and auction it, split the profits and the advertise on their page. If they do, it would offer you a lot more visibility.
Thank you for the tips and the support. n_n
No but I personally shy away from auctions. If I commit to spending money, it's a letdown when someone outbids you. I prefer certainty. Definitely do at least some for sale.
