Ok. So, I have a logo (I own the rights) that I have made into an alpha (#128098) that I’m getting requests for. It’s an exclusive club for women motorcyclists that have ridden 1,500 miles in under 24 hours and it’s quite recognizable in my country. I made the pattern and just posted a photo to SM and now I’m getting requests for it from members. I spend close to 30 hours on it, clean back technique and I don’t know how much I should charge. Any help would be nice 🙂

I would say $15..? although when I sell things I like to underprice it so I can get a sale but it seems you already have people interested so you could go more than that. however $30 is not reasonable in my opinion😂

@La_Loca based on the photos alone your bracelets look amazing and it is very clear that a lot of time and effort goes into making your bracelets. Considering how long it takes to make knotted bracelets, especially alphas, and that is completely custom, charging around $30 is reasonable. And you stated previously that it takes you around 30 hours to make, so considering the time and the resources it takes to produce one bracelet, you could charge even more, especially since it is a custom item. 🙂

tbh if you spent 30 hours on it, i’d charge like 60 dollars. just let people know that because then you can justify that for two dollars an hour (or how ever much that is in pesos) is a really good price. and if no one is willing to buy it, then you can slowly lower the price. but id say start high and then work your way down, instead of startin low and not getting compensated for the amount of time you’ve put into sth like that

I’d say add the cost of the string with $5 for the clean back, $15 for the time, so about $20-$25 im guessing.

PS, I think you could also charge for quality, so $30 might be a better estimate. 😊

It depends on your area and what people are willing to pay. Like @Rowsitt said, you can always go down if you need to
