I know I wont pay those super high prices. I have gotten stuff at a reasonable price from ebay and from Joy.

I also saw a nice one on drsfostersmith.com for $14. There is also one on petedge.com for between $7-9 depending on the size. I like the one I got but these other two look really cute too. Mine is sort of the suede/sherpa look and it came in camel and dark green so I got the green.

I have gone through a lot of the sites that are listed on Admins list of clothing sites and here are some that I have found to be pretty reasonably priced in case anyone is interested. I think I sorted them out pretty good but don't be mad at me if I accidentally add one that is outrageously priced

Also, I haven't ordered from all of these so I don't know how their quality or service is.

One more sight is doggy-gifts.com. I don't remember if they have clothes but I did buy some toys from there and they have free shipping with no minimum order!!!

I agreed some places prices for dog clothing is just outrageous. I got a harness from Joy, ******************.com, and i consider her prices very affordable. I wouldnt buy a dress or any piece of clothing for $70, i wouldnt spent that much for me either. I guess is just me, I know others dont mind and that is ok. I just cant and wouldnt.
If any find places with reasonable prices It wll be great if you share it for people like me.

Shanatink · 09-22-2005, 06:33 PM

Prices can be ridiculous! My prices are based on my fabric cost. I personally have a tendancy to like designer fabric & more expensive fabrics and faux furs. Even my regular clothes most of the fabric is well over $10 a yard so I have to charge a little more plus the time it takes to make. I also love crystals and boas which are expensive too. I hope I am not considered overprice. I try to be reasonable and still make a living. My stupid designer fabrics cost me $50 a yard. They used to cost half that but as demand goes up so does the price. SO it gets harder and harder to offer stuff at super low prices.
And I hate shipping. I actually end up getting screwed on shipping alot and have to pay out of pocket. I had to raise my shipping prices. Because the stupid post office has delayed or lost so many packages I have to mail everything priority mail with tracking and some of my items I have to insure, which gets costly!

Shanatink · 09-22-2005, 07:21 PM

I just want to say that this post hurts my feelings. I try so hard to give Yorkie talkers a bigger break on prices then anyone else and I dont think people understand how much fabric is. Sure you can find fabric for $2 a yard at walmart. BUt I like to make my items look unique. I am attracted to fabric with texture, color, sparkle...... all quality fabric that cost more. But in the end I have a unique style of dog clothes. Is $15-$30(which is actually $12-24 for YorkieTalkers) not reasonable for handmade unique dog clothes? I really am getting depressed here and need answers.

chachi · 09-22-2005, 07:37 PM

Shana I think yoiur prices are very fair and you offer really cute items. There are some dog boutiques whose prices are extremely high though. I just got my heart clips I ordered from you by the way and they are just darling. Thanks

taje · 09-22-2005, 07:59 PM

Shanatink, nobody is pointing fingers at you! I think the reference was made towards resellers who mark things waaaay up, not people who make their own stuff. There are some outrageous prices being charged out there. Not that you are one of them! Everyone who orders from you raves about you! Please don't feel bad!

Of course handmade stuff will tend to be more especially with designer fabric!

Your site is great! You are more than reasonable and fair. Please don't be offended!

suzysmitt · 09-23-2005, 03:27 AM

Please don't feel hurt. I even said the people who are Yters who have sites have more reasonable prices. I wanted to order something from you but I can't figure out where to put the code in.

I'm sorry, suzysmitt. It wasnt the initial post that hurt my feelings. I kinda gotmy feelings hurt that no one mentioned my store anywhere in the thread as being one of the reasonable ones. Someone even made a list of all the ones from the admins list of ones they thought were reasonable and I wasnt on it. Thats where I started getting depressed. I think I was just having one of those days. Sorry to be so whiny. Now I feel stupid because I know I was just being a baby. I guess everyone needs a little confidence sometimes

. Sorry guys and thanks for making me fell better. I really appreciate it.
