Sell in local store on consignment?

Does anyone make things to sell in their local stores on consignment? I have a question, a dilemma and not quite sure how to handle it and I want an opinion. I would post the dilemma but you never know who reads your blog you know? I just always thought there was a code of ethics among crafters and maybe that is just in my own mind.
Thanks
Kathy

    Hi Kathy-I am just about to start selling on consignment in a local shop, so I would be very interested to know what dilemmas you have come up against, in hopes of avoiding it myself. Sorry I can't give you any advice though.

    Hi Kat..I've sold on consignment many times over the years. without really knowing the dilemma its hard to pass along anything I experienced along the way.. If you want to email personally I might be able to add insight.

    I have sold on consignment before in years past, it has pros and cons, just like anything in life! I hope you can get your issues resolved. I have been thinking of doing a selling blog myself.
    I wish the best. Oh~ and I read your other post, you aren't weird! LOL! You are you, and that's all that you should be. If others don't like me the way I am, well then I guess I look at it as they are the ones that missed out.
    I enjoy your posts very much.
    Have a great day, I am off to work now.

    I just set up my first display in a store yesterday. I'm so excited ~ I'll be posting later about it. I hope you can work everything out.
    Prim Blessings!
