Bit of market research if you don't mind

I'm trying to work out a price for my alpaca/silk blend rovings.

Here's what they look like



They're hand dyed and blended and I plan to do more colours/mixed colurs etc but I haven't a clue how to price them. What would you ladies think is a reasonable price for 100g of that?

I've just paid £7.99 for 100g white baby camel/mulberry silk fibre Very Happy It would depend how much you're paying for your alpaca and silk, then the dye? Not much help am I Laughing I do like the pink though it's lovely Very Happy

They're gorgeous colours, Stacey - what did you price them at in the end?

It's probably a good job I'm playing catch-up - I might have bought them on the spot. I'm sure you could easily get £7 - £10/100g for them (I'd have paid it!)

Thanks both Smile

WW - I haven't put them on the site - they're for Wonderwool Smile

I think I'd better try not to come to wonderwool. It might get awfully expensive, and I'd end up buying all yours and Sally's stock!

Look, it's not funny! I really think sometimes it would be a lot cheaper just to buy an alpaca, even if they are extortionately priced pyramid scams! Laughing

I'm not following you about intentionally, today, by the way!
