Want me to sell some of your artwork at Armageddon?

By Murk. 05/03/10, 10:26 am

The deviantArt stall is getting a big overhaul this year and is now the Drawfest stall; and one of my main priorities is being there not just to sell my own work, but everyone elses as well.

If you want to sell your work through me, possibly because you're too shy or too busy to sit at the stall, I would gladly welcome some extra things to put on the table.
You pay for printing costs, 20% of the profit helps pay for the stall, but after that, the money is all yours. I don't take a cent for myself; and you make money while having fun at the con.

More details at www.drawfestnz.deviantart.com, and feel free to ask me anything.

Where are you based?

Because I have a whole bunch of stuff left over from last year's DO and I'd love to, only problem is I'm in Auckland.

By Murk. 05/03/10, 10:54 am

I'm in Palmerston North.
You're welcome to bring it on the convention days (or deploy a minion to do so), or post it to me beforehand, or even get a price quote for me to print more locally. Its up to you.

Can I just dump things on you on the day? I won't be at Wellygeddon, so I want Anita to do it for me.

and how do I price things? Can I just have them priced myself, or leave you with a note with prices on them etc?

By Murk. 17/03/10, 03:02 pm

You can price them yourself, and please write down some contact details so I can get your money back to you as well.

@Yuki: I see Murk every so often so if you like you can pass them onto me early and I could give them to him so it's easier?

By Murk. 19/03/10, 03:18 pm

Yes, please. If you send me art, an email address or something so I can
contact you about payment afterwards would work out really well.

And you're welcome to deliver it to me at the beginning of the event. As long as I get a heads up. ;)

And you can price them yourself, however you like. I'm happy to help if
you have any trouble.

I'm going to go to Warehouse Stationery or something to use their Print/Photocopying service at some point... or hog the printer in the Library up at the Uni. Touching up the artwork I want to sell. I can't wait Smile

tysm Murk~!

Heyy... I've never sold any work before, or even tried to, but I'd really like to try--some friends sold a WHOLE heap last year and made stacks of money. Is there any way I could be there at the Drawfest/dA stall at chcGeddon? That would be amazing. Though I'm on a kind of dA hiatus at the mo (I have no scanner) I'd love the oppitunity to sell my work/do commissions on the day, an/or sell copies of my other works. I can get good quality prints. (I have no idea if anyone would want to buy my stuff, but there you go...)

I'm afraid I've only got 3 passes I'm sharing between 6 people already.

Feel free to bring some art along for me to sell for you though, and maybe if we end up having a bit of room you can come sit a while?

Just no promises at this point. ;)

By Sockcat. 22/03/10, 05:31 am

Yep, that sounds good. I had expressed my interest months ago, but y'know... I forget and stuff. SO, I probably just come and lurk for a while. Or not. I don't know, I've never been to Geddon before, weird as it sounds... But do you have any ideas how many prints I should bring, and what of, etc? I have no idea about any of this, but I am keen.

By Murk. 22/03/10, 05:41 am

Don't bring too many, unless you're happy to try selling them again at future cons - most people average earning maybe $200 on both prints and on-the-spot commissions. But I plan for everyone to do very well this year, so hopefully we'll sell dozens of each persons art.

By Murk. 23/03/10, 06:26 am

I'm going to be in Wellington tomorrow afternoon if anyone wants to deliver things to me for the Christchurch Armageddon.

By chiken_skratch. 23/03/10, 06:51 am
