Hi All, :dance:
Can someone tell me ,when or if I sell my bears to a shop to sell the bears, do I have to have some kind of insurance.
Please help. :pray:
Love Kay.x
Sunshine Coast, QLDHi Kay,
I'm not sure what the insurance would be for, but when I was 15 I had a few bears in the local art gallery gift shop, and they were sold on commission. I didn't have any kind of insurance, I just took them in, the lady said yes, and I went in to collect my cut when a bear had sold.
Maybe it depends if they are buying them from you? Not sure, and don't know if I've helped, but good luck!
Hi Kay
I believe the shop owners insurance should cover your bears for theft fire etc but check with the shop first before leaving them there. If you are putting them in on consignment then make sure you have a written signed contract for your bears as well as a list of all your bears also signed by both parties

Hi Erin and Gail,
Thanks for that ,not sure if to sell them to the shop lady or put them in the shop and talk a cut. :clap:

Bears by JodiFrom my experience it is better to just sell to the shop if she will buy them, then if they get messed up by handlers they don't come back to you to deal with. You can do 30% off retail or 50% off what ever she will go for.Good luck.
Hi Jodi
Thanks for that, sounds good to me. :clap:
Will let you know how I get on.
Love Kay.xx :hug: :hug:
Hi,
Just to let you know I took 8 bears to a local gift/ interiors shop,and she bought all of them. :dance: :dance:
So I'm walking on air at the moment.
The shop lady said she would ring me when the first bear sold. It was only 30 mintues later and one of the bears have sold. 
The lady in the shop has ordered another 4 bears off me.
Just thought you would like to know
Love Kay.xxxx :hug: :hug:

Did you get the price you were hoping for when you sold them?

Hi Ruth and Laurie,
It is a great shop with 3 floors of gifts and only Charlie bears to compete with. 
Yes I got the price I wanted and even had the chance to say the price for sale in the shop. :clap: :clap:
It does feel good!
You are right Laurie, it does make you more inspired to get on with the bears, so I've been at it for a few hours, and I do feel great. :dance: :dance:

Hi Lisa,
I didn't feel they were good enough to sell, but everyone around said differently.
So Yesterday with bears in tow, plucked up the courage, and you know the rest. 
Thanks for the encouragement. :clap: :clap:

Hi Clare,

How are you?

Pandy Potter BearsWell done Kay. What good news! Just shows how things roll. Speak to you soon and we want to see pictures! :hug:
Hi Amanda,
Pictures to follow when someone will show me how to get them on the page. :photo:
Came back from work and the shop lady(karen) had rung and left a message that the bigger of the bears had sold. She was hinting on doing alot more. Thats ok but working and family ties, I can only fit it in at the times that I sit down. 
But shouldn't complain.
How are you anyway?
Speak to you soon.
Love Kayxxxxxxxxxxx. :hug: :hug:
