Default Selling Mailboxes

Would you pay $15 for a mailbox? I was wondering if a made a few of these and tried to sell 'em at work, if I could seriously get $15 for them. Each box would come with a matching gift card envelope they could use if desired. The card would match the mailbox design. (see my gallery for the baby mailbox). I don't want to short change myself in time, took forever :-) And since Target is out of the boxes, I'd purchase elsewhere for about $5 ea (including tax/shipping). Add paper, embellishments, my time wouldn't be worth much. What's your opinion? Have you sold any? If so, for how much and what did you include?
Thanks, Cher

This is really cute. I'm sure some folks would be willing to pay $15. each although it may depend on your location.

Good luck with your endeavor.

Your mailbox is really sweet. I would think that $15 is too low. At a craft show here, I would expect to see a $20 price tag. But, we live on opposite sides of the country. You might take a look in some nearby gift shops to see if anyone has items of the same quality and check their prices.

I would think noncrafties would pay that and more.
