any money competing with 1 cent auctions for pieces of jewelry. Most people that shop on eBay don't realize the commitment and effort that goes into Handcrafted Artisan jewelry. They just expect you to jump through hoops to make them happy, they expect a piece of jewelry for next to nothing and they expect it to immediately be rushed off to the post office within moments of it being paid for with out the slightest thought that you might have a life of your own that includes house keeping, taking care of children, cooking, appointments or any number of daily activities that comes with life. They don't think about the fact that their might be six or seven orders in from of them. I don't know what it is about eBay customers, they just expect so much for so little.

In defense of my really good, very nice and loyal customers, there is a hand full of mature, honest and easy to work with eBayers out there.

All said and done I much prefer Consigning to boutiques over selling on eBay, but as a Stay At Home Mom, it is not always easy to get my work to the boutiques in the first place. I definitely make more money with far less hassle at the boutiques than on eBay and my work is far more appreciated at the boutiques as well. Consigning has far less stress involved and much more personal satisfaction when the day is done.
