Happy December folks.
Rainy and dull here ā€¦But off to the opening of a new craft outlet in Cardigan . They want to have a few of my bits in there but as I have a few things in another place in Cardigan, not sure because of the unwritten agreement of only having your stuff in one outlet ā€¦ Do you all abide by this ? The new place does look exciting on the website though . The boss of original place says its up to me :grimacing: Will go and check it out !!
Have a good Saturday all ā€¦ My daughter is outside getting wet ; first day of selling Christmas trees today :upside_down_face:

Hello,
Happy December. Iā€™m sorting my things for a craft fair next Saturday, Iā€™ve just bought an iZettle and had to walk up to the old church where the fair will be held to test it out. I was worried that I wouldnā€™t get a phone signal through the thick walls! But it worked fine. Does anyone know what the VAT setting does? Itā€™s at 20% by default, but you can change it to 5% or 0% - does it make any difference to what you get paid, or is it just for the purposes of the receipt?

I love your angels Sarah @thedotterypotter. Your beaded earrings are lovely Cynthia @Brockstones

My listing is made from a pendant I found in my stash the other day, just a quick make.

Ooh, apparently itā€™s the anniversary of the day I joined the Folksy community! I have a little cake next to my name, sadly only virtual cake :cake::cupcake:

Rachael @AppleQueenJewellery I used my izettle for the first time on Thursday night at a craft fair and it worked beautifully. Mine says 20% vat too but it didnā€™t affect what I was paid. I took Ā£99 in card payments and all I was charged was Ā£1.74 so I think it will be good

I have just listed something and when I went to the main screen to see it I had to scroll right down until newest items came up. Who is going to bother looking when they donā€™t come up on the main screen?

Valerie @valerie - I think we are all wondering about the impact of moving the recently loved items further down the front page will have on threads such as this on the forum. Personally, I try to always pin and tweet and occasionally share/love on FB and am sure (or hope) others do the same so there is still considerable promotion to be had by joining inā€¦ and the challenge of listing something new every day is a good incentive to get working :slight_smile:

Just back from my craft fair in a small village, so not very many attenders, but managed to sell three things, and it was only 5mins drive from home, so not complaining.

Will click and pin in a minute! My item for today is a factted glass and crocheted hanging angel decoration.

Many thanks Max for organising this thread again.
Happy December all.
Congratulations on your anniversary cake Rachael @AppleQueenJewellery. Such a shame your fair was a washout Karen @TheCornishHare. Iā€™ve had a good fair today and itā€™s depleted my Folksy shop a bit, hoping I get a bit of time to replenish it.
A relist from me today

Sounds good, I hope I do that well too! Did you offer to email/text their receipts, and did they take you up on it?
