Price For A Purse?

[LoopyCrochet]

I am making a purse for someone my mom knows, not a friend, but I don't how much to ask for it? It's a medium size purse and holds quite a bit...very cute if I do say so myself. It comes with one of my Spring Fling clutches, and has 2 pockets on the inside. It isn't lined, but it's custom...(Using the colors she wanted). So how much would you be willing to pay for it??? Thanks a bunch!

some say to take the cost of materials and time it by 3.

 

i've learned that you will never make a decent salary off crocheted items for the time you put into it.

That's what I do!

It cost me about $10...so $30? Is that ok?

[dobermama]

I think $30 is okay. Look online at purses and see if you find something close to what you are making and in the stores to see what they are charging. Good luck. That is also the formula I use if/when I sell things.

It depends on your area too. I live in the rural south. I couldn't sell a handbag at $30 here.
