Hi everyone,
Need some "market intelligence" from you guys and gals!
We've restocked our wood inventory wit ha lot of new pieces. Before we start putting them up on the site, I was hoping for some feedback. Our initial release will be some "Blonde" Spiderwood, which we have not offered before. The pieces we will be offering are mostly small, i the 6"-12" range, and although each specimen is different, they all seem to fall into similar configurations/morphologies (i.e.; kind of "circular", or "longer/projecting", etc.).
We have traditionally offered all of our driftwood as WYSIWYG specimens, which makes a lot of sense, particularly for larger pieces. However, I'm curious if you are interested in paying a slightly lower price for a "we pick 'em" class of wood? Less expensive, because we won't have to measure, photograph, tag., and price each piece individually. Sure, we've have a group shot representing the appearance of the several dozen pieces in the category (so you have an idea of what to expect), but you would not be selecting the exact piece(s) you'll be receiving.
Is this a worthwhile venture for our initial release of this new stuff, or are we better releasing pics of each piece and remaining WYSIWYG (what you see is what you get) for our driftwood offerings?
Thanks in advance for you feedback. It's very important for us to listen to you and make our offerings available in a manner that works best for YOU!
Stay wet!
