Depends on how fast you want to sell it. When I list things for sale (on Makeupgeek.com) if I want to get rid of it fast I sell it for about 1/2 price of what I paid for it new + $2 for shipping.
If its LE and not used much I'd sell it for a little bit more.
I would say people would be willing to pay close to retail minus a few dollars, especially with the hard to find/limited edition items (Hello Kitty, MSF's etc).
Then again it is your blog and sale so you can charge what you like! :)
Perhaps have a look on ebay for the items to get a better idea. That is what I usually do before I privately sell things.
usually ppl take off 10% of the item they originall bought it for and full price for the new stuff (: i see a few things i may be interested in Lorraine. u are tempting me! ahh i shouldnt be buying n e makeup >.<*
Hey hun, you got some nice stuff there. If I were you I'd sell the stuff for like 60% of what you paid for it. I do this when I sell stuff and it seems to work. Marcia xoxoxo
I haven't done a blog sale, but it seems to me that it depends on how much they 've been used... I guess below retail, but not that low, since they are as good as new...Dunno if I make any sense... Hope I helped a little...lol :) xx
Hey Lorraine! I'm having a blog sale too!!! :) But of COURSE I will have to check yours out!!!! I basically just decided on what I thought was fair for the items I had. If it is used, I look at retail price and just sell it at a cheaper price, depending on how used it is...if it's still brand new I just pick what I think is a fair price. GOOD LUCK WITH YOUR SALE!!! I'll be waiting! :)
From selling things on livejournal and Specktra here are around normal pricing: (this all includes shipping) New lipstick/barely used: $11 New eyeshadow/barely used: $9 (people normally buy more than one so they'd like them to be cheaper) Lipglass: $11-$12 Pigments: depends on what you have; looks like you have mauvement which I have seen goes for $18...ones that are less rare/permanent sell for around $16 NARS: knock off around like $6 per item...my NARS stuff didn't sell nearly as well as MAC for some reason..:/ Pigment vials: again depends on what it is but they sell mostly for around $10..add on a dollar or 2 for the more rare ones
*You can always start off with whatever you feel is resonable and then if no one wants to buy you can have a 'sale' on your sale..or you can offer deals if someone wants to buy a lot of items. hope this helps! :)
I want to buy many things. Can i still know what's available please? If the make up forever palette is available i'll def. buy that and a few eye shadows

Check to see how much things are going for on auction site's, and price yours accordingly.

I'd say look at the original price, and if you've only used a little take away like 4-6 dollars from the original price. :) x
i would love to buy some of those e/s, lipstick and nars products. i think maybe 1/2 the price you payed or a few dollars more.
xx
mmmm im wondering what color lipsticks you have!! i want some :)
Bring on the SALE!!!! You have some really good products there! I'm eyeing up the e/s and Nars!
