[HYNES]

22" X 22"

$5 at the show?

[kozik]

will you make a profit at 5 bucks? doubt it. 10 bucks.

[HYNES]

Fair enough. Thats pretty standard then?

[kozik]

sure..fuck ive sold them for 20 bucks..25...

no use losing money dude.

This is the eternal dilema. I never really know how much to charge. Lately, I've stuck in the $5 - $10 range. EVen $10 has been a bit hard for people to swallow lately.

If I sell a poster for $5, it usually sells out. If I sell it for ten, I usually sell less than 20.

I'd rather sell it for less money and sell all of them than have a huge pile of unsold posters stacked on my pool table.

I follow AA's lead, they sell'em for $5 at the show, and more every day after that, thus encouraging people to attend the show.

But whatever works.

We can't all be in Kozik's league of pricing, but you gotta make some money.

same here.
5, 10 MAX at a show and more afterwards and online
i feel people at the show who are there supporting the bands should get first shot

i brought posters to a show friday and sold them for a buck thinking nobody would want them... they totally sold out. two bucks next time.

I sold my Cramps poster at the show for $20 and they almost all sold. (This is me bragging)

i have a hard time selling posters at shows... its a lot of people going "wow thats nice..." then walk away. ive never sold them at shows for more than $15... people dont understand why the bands are selling offset posters for $1 or even giving them away, and mine costs $10. whats a good way to create demand for hand screened show posters? i want to push these things so that more people have my stuff on their walls and i can actually make a couple bucks as well...
