I have a small stack of pre-2006 BG papers that have been sitting, waiting to be used all these years later. I don't know that I've ever sold PP.
If you were figuring out pricing for the stack, how much would you "charge" per sheet to get to the total for all of it? Thanks so much for your input, MUCH appreciated!

I haven’t sold anything but for BG I would think you could get a decent amount since obviously it’s no longer available. I would think a dollar a sheet at least? I would pay over that for BG I loved. I miss BG!!!

I wouldn't charge a lot. I loved BG, but I don't think it is really a fan favorite anymore (except for here). Maybe google sold prices of paper and see what is selling in your area.

I would sell it all together in one big lot, with a flat price. Especially if you are selling it online -- people probably wont want to pay shipping for just a couple sheets of paper.

When I've sold papers before, I usually priced a large stack for 10 cents/sheet. So a stack of 50 sheets would sell for $5.

Thanks so much girls. Like I said, it's a small stack, and at Peamac's recommended .10 a sheet it's totally not worth my trouble to do anything with it, KWIM?!?

Thanks so much girls. Like I said, it's a small stack, and at Peamac 's recommended .10 a sheet it's totally not worth my trouble to do anything with it, KWIM?!? I completely understand. I just gave away an 8-inch stack of 12 x 12 cardstock and patterned paper to the senior center where I work. Next week I'm giving them the 6 x 6 papers. It's just not worth my time and effort to try to sell them. I was thinking of the tag sale that a scrapbook store about an hour away from me has a few times a year, but I think the way they do it isn't very equitable for the sellers. You have to buy a "sticker kit" from them for about $10 to label all your stuff. Then you bring your stuff in, and they do all the selling. You're not even there during the sale. They take 20% of the total for your sales, and you get the remaining 80% in a store credit for their store. So you get rid of all that stuff only to bring in more - and it has to be from their store! That just doesn't work for me.

Thanks again for your help girls!

This is what I might price a pile of mixed, non-designer papers at a yard sale, but to sell papers online I would personally charge more, especially when they are all one brand. I know I go searching places like Ebay & Etsy now & again hoping to find someone selling papers I used to love--October Afternoon, Scenic Route, at one point I bought a ton of Chatterbox, and people are definitely asking more than that per sheet when they are selling you papers from discontinued lines/brands.

RAK or trade it here (if interested). Lots of people here love the old school Basic Grey.
