When selling your work, be mindful of pricing. Figure out what you are paying for materials, pay yourself a fair wage for your time, and consider operating costs like Etsy fees, Paypal fees and shipping/packaging expenses.
Many sellers come up with a formula for pricing their items. You can get some good advice here and here on the user wiki.
Don't forget wholesale vs retail! Most wholesale buyers assume the retail price is double the wholesale price. If you are hoping to be "discovered" through your Etsy shop by a boutique or two or twelve, make sure your prices reflect this. If they are not, state this in your shop.
Above all, don't let other people's underpriced items discourage you. For whatever reasons, some Etsy sellers just aren't charging a realistic price for their work. Maybe they just consider Etsy a hobby instead of a business, or they don't really need the income. Its useless to get angry about this! A business that isn't covering its costs has no hope of growing or succeeding in the long term. Focus on developing your designs, customer service and innovation---and make sure your prices are fair. You deserve it!

Great tips! Figuring out your pricing and making sure you're making a good profit is what makes it possible to make a living making things!
this is something i have to keep reminding myself of, thanks for your tips :)
This is very valuable info.
Thank you so much for this!
This was a great reference to knowing your prices. I just quit my 'Real' job to do this handmade thing full time. I am wanting to sell wholesale rather than do craft shows for retail. So the price that I need to sell my items for needs leave room for the store to make a profit at 2x what I sold the item to them for. Confused. . . so am I!
great post! Could not agree more! :)
Thanks for this article. Great reminders!!
I know the game from my friends and first my friends give me a lot of Sho Mun and after that i go to earn the Sho Online gold alone, i find that the Sho gold is very interesting and i like to buy Sho Online gold alone very much. Sometimes i will give some Sho Online Mun to my friends too.So i think if you join us to play the game you will like the game too.
