The people doing the shaming are just upset that the prices are going crazy. No one is forced to buy a plant at a price they feel is too much. Every uncommon plant I own has literally paid for itself and then some from me propagating it. My best one to date was a Variegated Florida Beauty, I paid $140 for the plant and the following year I put a single leaf cutting on eBay and started it $50. It sold for $370....I gave her an extra cutting because I felt it was too high, lol.
@okanaganblonde40953 жыл бұрын
I’m becoming a big fan of the auction type selling too. I recently brought a bunch of cuttings an a couple slightly uncommon plants (scindapsus/treubii and hoya) back to my hometown and auctioned everything. I think the highest starting bid was $10 and only two had a reserve to cover costs (otherwise no reserve) and I made almost $430 and donated it all to a local dog rescue. I feel much better with a reasonable list price and letting the the buyers decide what they will pay.

@janiceyu62883 жыл бұрын
What's considered over price? To be honest a lot of plants are "overpriced". Like pink princess when the true value of growing the plant is only about $4... but because of supply demand, it went up. I think as long as they are selling at market value, that's fair enough. Selling cutting shouldn't be judged since acquiring plants can be expensive and selling a piece of it can help off set the cost of owning one is fair.
@jenniferburns96373 жыл бұрын
I’ll start by saying that I’ve never sold a plant. However, in my opinion I could care less if someone wants to try and sell their plants for an astronomical price. If someone else is willing to purchase it, that’s on them right? So long as people are willing to pay, the prices will never go down. It just comes down to knowing your means and being happy with what you have and being happy for the people whose means may look different from yours. I’ve waited years for certain plants because their price point wasn’t in my budget. Makes it all the sweeter when you do snag that wishlist plant :)

I think there's some legalities here that are important. Technically in some states you need to be a legal/certified grower to sell anything. Selling a copyrighted plant is illegal. And I'd think on Etsy you'd need to be a legal business that takes taxes, etc. Just some food for thought. :)

At another flea market in my city I need a sellers permit but it’s also a bougier one with more small business booths so I’d have no problem selling there. We have to find what work for us. 🧡

I understand paypal for safety but if it's an in person transaction. I highly suggest sellers to do immediate digital payment (etransfer, bank transfer etc) or cash in person. I heard too many horror stories of buyers complaining after they get their goods and say didn't receive it or not satisfied and then get Paypal to reverse the transaction. There isn't many ways to prove you gave it to the buyer if you transacted in person unlike shipping you can show the shipping /logistics tracking. I've always done e-transfer/cash in person and had no issues or if they want to hold it for them, then they etransfer in advance. I think as long as you have a few 5 star reviews on FB marketplace, you can ask them for that, if they are serious they wouldn't mind. As you already developed a pattern of trustworthiness from your reviews. I suggest all sellers do the same. Especially for expensive plants, do first come first serve or they can choose to e-transfer to hold. Too many wishy washy buyers that ghost. You spend so much time with them and hold the plant for them for no reason when you could've sold to another who messaged later. My 2cents selling on fb Marketplace. I don't think Harli G has dealt with issues like this as much since she's an influencer with a large following and easily can sell off IG.
