Selling through Not On The High Street

bananah

Hi,
I've been accepted by NOTHS as a seller. The fees are pretty high to sign up, and they take 25% commission, but they're clearly one of (if not, the) biggest player in the market.

I am just trying to see if anyone has sold prints / pictures through them before, and what sort of volume of sales they have achieved. I'm just trying to do the sums on what i could potentially expect to make, and whether its worth it.

I know all products are different, but I would expect mine to make roughly £30-40 per sale, but if sellers of this type of product are seeing sales of only 3-4 per month, then I don't think its worth the initial investment.

Thanks for any advice.

I can't help with your question but I'd be interested in knowing what the sign up fees are, if you didn't mind sharing (here or by PM if you don't want to make it public)?

I am looking at approaching them but have been a bit put off by not being able to work out figures.

hi - the fees are 575 + Vat, with 25% commission, or £450 + VAT and then 30% commission

pretty steep, but I need to gauge the potential sales :-)

Can't help with the question either, but as a prospective customer, I can look on NOTHS and see that there are over 11,500 products in their 'picture' category.

What will make yours stand out in this sea of product?

Hmm. Not sure what I expected but yes, that does seem steep!
