Why unpriced items do not sell
A large share of shoppers will not ask what something costs. They assume it is expensive,
put it down, and move on. Clear pricing is not decoration — it removes the single most
common reason a browser fails to become a buyer.
It also protects your time. If you spend the day answering "how much is this?" you are not
having the conversations that actually close sales.
What a good tag shows
- The price, large enough to read at arm's length without leaning in
- What the thing is, if it is not obvious — the material, the size,
the scent
- Care or content where it matters, such as fibre or ingredients
- Nothing else. A crowded tag reads as a leaflet and gets ignored
Tags, tents and signs
Hanging or tie-on tags suit individually priced pieces — jewellery,
bags, garments.
Table tent cards suit a tray of like-priced items: "All soaps $8".
A single large sign suits flat pricing across the booth, and is the
fastest to read from the aisle, which is where the decision to stop is actually made.
Consistency reads as professional
One typeface, one size, one card stock across the whole booth signals a business rather
than a hobby, and that perception supports your prices. Mixed handwriting and mismatched
scraps do the opposite, however good the work itself is.
Print spares. Tags get rained on, blown away and taken home by customers, and a booth that
turns patchy by the afternoon undoes the effect.
Round numbers move faster
At a market, $20 beats $19.75. It is quicker to say, quicker to take, and removes coin from
the transaction entirely. If you price tax-inclusive you can pull the tax back out afterwards
with the reverse sales tax calculator.

Frequently asked questions
Do I need to put prices on everything at a craft fair?
Yes. Many shoppers will not ask, and an unpriced item is usually assumed to be expensive and put back down. Clear pricing removes the most common reason a browser walks away.
What size should price tags be?
Large enough to read at arm's length. The price should be the biggest element; anything else on the tag should be smaller and brief.
Should I use individual tags or a single sign?
Individual tags suit items priced differently. A table tent or one large sign is faster to read and better when many items share a price — and it is what people see from the aisle.
Should prices end in .99?
At markets, round numbers usually work better. They are faster to say and take, and they remove coin handling from every transaction.
What should I print tags on?
Card stock rather than paper — it survives handling and weather. Print spares, because tags get lost, damaged and taken home by customers.
Is the price tag maker free?
Yes — no sign-up, and it prints from your browser with no app to install.
