Buy and sell quality knives it brings the boys to the table like bears to a home then they start looking at the sheaths to fit the knife. While their wife’s is checking out the purses Bears to honey.

What sells? that is the $100 question it is hard to nail that down. At one venue only holsters the next only purses I tell you that it is enough to make you pull your hair out I really can not answer that question this venue was We had a good time, paypal or cash app? With out a means to be paid you will miss sales. I lost a couple yesterday because I do not have a credit card reader 60% is cash 40 some type of credit card or Venmo, cash app PayPal Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The vest were supposed to be woman’s size 4.5.,6 so what the heck, I made them anyway and they get me the “awwwwwwww How Cute “. Betty look at these. Comments and those comments make them stop and look , and that is what I want my my wife says I am like an old time circus barker.

bladegrinder Report post Posted March 18 I use Square, you can type a credit card into your phone or, I have a gismo that plugs into the phone, it's only a few inches long and you can swipe credit cards. you can also email a receipt to the customer right there. my last knife show was 50-50 cash and credit cards.

I do not like credit cards their is no safety net, the customer can cancel a transaction and leave you with no recourse unless you hire a lawyer pp. and cash app have that built into their program I do accept cks but do not give them the merch till it clears Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I sent them my check image and it was accepted wrote void and tried to upload. Nope would not go stuck with a voided check no bank will cash Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Handstitched Report post Posted March 18 One happy customer Those tasty craw fish look very similar to 'Yabbies, 'an Aussie delicacy . We also have Maron, like a fresh water crayfish or lobster, but can only be caught at certain times of the year, with a permit, due to low numbers. We no longer have cheques here in Oz . I only take cash or EFTPOS using a square reader. HS Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
