The thing that I like about this company/thread is that it doesn't benefit these people to tell us how good they sell.

LOL, if they are lucky, they get $10 1 time if we sign under them, but then we are potential competition[img]smileys/smiley36.gif[/img]

One reason I decided to join[img]smileys/smiley1.gif[/img]

PS, I know your joking, just thought about this and was thinking how refreshing it is.

Why is the clear coat acrylic needed? Does it have a loud smell to where I would have to take this step outside on the porch so it wont stink up the house?

[jsully]

The clear coat acrylic coats the nails so they don't rust and gives them a seal.



YES - it does SMELL and you need to take it to the porch!!!

For those of you who sell these yourselves regularly, how many do you typicaly sell a month?

I'm just trying to see what I can do realisticly[img]smileys/smiley1.gif[/img]

I would also not recommend their buy back program for 2 reasons.


1. They are incredibly picky.


2. They sell on their own just fine as you can tell from other posts here.


I have sold wholesale to 3 different retail stores in my area. Well, 2 retail stores and 1 hair salon. When I sell wholesale, I sell them for$6 a piece and they turn around and resell them for 10 - 12.


I also go to a local flea market/trade show in my area once a month and depending on the weather, I sell anywhere from 100 to 500. That's a profit after the booth rental and all of about $850 to $4000. Since I only do this to supplement our income, either way it's great!





Feel free to contact me I'd be happy to share any info I can. It'sa great business.

This was from page one, but it answers your question in regards to what someone has done. I think most of us here are new.

[img]smileys/smiley9.gif[/img] Thanks, I know I saw that before.....

Well, my kit is about a 4 hour drive away now, and it left there about 3 hours ago. Don't know if UPS will deliver today, or tommorrow, but it's not due till Monday.

Fingers crossed it comes by tommorrow so I can spend the weekend learning and assembling. Hopefully sell them by mid week and order more supplies[img]smileys/smiley1.gif[/img]

Hi everyone!


I just bought my starter kit today. I'm pretty excited to get this rolling. Do you know if you can buy the grip pliers cheaper anywhere else? I already have needle nose pliers but I really think I need the grip ones too as my hand strength isn't that great.


Thanks!

and I agree that feedback sites get way more negative comments than positives. People who are mad will go out of their way to let others know it, while someone with a pleasant experience will likely not think twice about it..

Yes your math is correct! It is quite a nice profit. Not to mention making the crosses are very theraputic and I enjoy making them and enjoy the response I get when people see them. They are beautiful. And just like you said, the ones with pleasant experiences don't vocalize them, which is why I'm hearing telling my good store [img]smileys/smiley17.gif[/img]

It depends on which ones you're talking about. If you mean the LONG NECK pliars sold on the DC site, I really recommend buying them from him because they are EXTREMELY hard to find in stores in that size. I don't know why, it's just been my experience. As far as the locking pliars, I got mine from Wal-mart and they were Vice-grip brand with really nice comfort handles in a package of 3 sizes (that including the needle-nose vice's which you'll need) for like $20.
