100% Package Deals Thread: handling YOUR package since 2012
Posted: Wed Aug 01, 2012 9:01 pm
Have been going back and forth on this idea for several days, and after one last self-debate I've decided to say "fcuk it" and open up a thread. Yes, the "100% Package Deals Thread" is exactly what you think it is. No, we will not have any hard and fast "rules" (pish-posh). But we WILL have guidelines, such as:
1) To sell in this thread, your "Package Deal" must contain 3 OR MORE PRINTS to be considered a "package deal". Then again, if you wanna offer two killer prints at a badass price...no one's gonna shriek at you or add you to a list or anything.
2) Discussion's encouraged! It is, in fact, the reason we're here: lately I've been getting a fudge-ton of PM's from people who want a second opinion on the package deal they're putting together ("Do you think this will sell?" , etc). Well, now there's an entire thread where you can get that feedback. Wondering if your lineup will sell? Post it here: if someone digs it, it'll get bought....
3) ....and if you DON'T like someone's package deal? Remain calm. Try to explain-- in as non-dickish a manner as possible-- how the deal could be made more attractive to you if that's possible. But if you hate the prints on offer and want 'em even cheaper than what they're being offered at? Better just skip it: if the deal sucks, it won't sell, and that's the seller's problem...not yours.
4) Why keep this separate from the HUT? Well, I know that most people don't come to the HUT looking to read lengthy posts from buyers offering complicated package deals: you go in the HUT for quick, easily-acquired hookups, not for an impromptu bit of math homework. In other words, you can consider this thread a safe haven for trying out your weirdest sales ideas, or for trying stuff that might otherwise get you stabbed in the HUT.
Got questions? Ask away. More to come momentarily....
