I'm in the process of taking pics and posting in my Etsy shop but I want to know what a good price is, some have fine detailed stitching around them.

i peeked at your site .. and see you are talking 'new linens' .. your prices seem very fair .. i know that newer linens can sometimes go higher than the old because of today's value of time to hand-make something.
i think that is why i consider vintage linens to be such a great deal! we don't tend to pay for today's labor costs.

heather .. it all depends on the 'audience' .. i often pick up wonderful hankies and linens for just a few dollars at antiques shoppes. some places they may go higher .. but i'm a 'gooooood shopper' and know where i can go for good deals. hankies usually run a dollar to three .. sometimes 4 or 5 for fancier ones .. seldom see them go for higher than that. linens .. it just depends on lotsa' things .. area .. condition .. size .. intricacy in 'fancy work'.
my suggestion is to jus' try to double what YOU paid for each piece .. unless you got them for dimes and quarters .. then you can, of course, go higher. IF they are selling very fast .. you might be asking low .. if selling at a reasonable rate .. the price is probably right .. if not selling at all .. you are tooooooo high!
it's trial and error .. and remember .. in a POSH upscale shoppe where wealthy people live .. they might go for more .. in an area where there are lots of vintage linens being sold .. you will have to price them much lower.

I would look at other people's offerings and see what their prices are like. It is hard to know sometimes, but condition also plays a part in pricing, I'm going to peek at them when you get them listed....Karin
