Hello,
Not sure if this is the right place to post but had a wee question and didn't know the sort of in and outs of the situation I am in, as it is my first time selling.
Basically, I should hopefully be selling my stuff in a boutique. However, I am trying to type up my price list but the owner will not tell me the amount of commission they plan to take until they see my prices, or whether they plan to take commission from my sale price or if they will add on their own mark up and take that as commission.
Am I wrong in wanting to know this before handing over my price list? As if the commission is quite high(some boutiques charge up to 50%) I need to at least try and recoup some of that from my selling price to make sure I am making money and not loosing it? No?
Do I have the wrong idea about how this works? And I'm confused as why she can't tell me? Is this usually how this all works?
