it's mainly a thing of opinion but here are the basics

Stores are selling singles, that take like 5 minutes to make, and ya know it kinda doesn't make sense kinda like buying preassembled DIY projects where you don't get to build it.

Personally, I think selling singles is not very coolio but selling things like cuffs, masks, large charms, etc. is coolio

mostly because people are selling singles that are super easy to make and they are typically overpriced. larger things like cuffs and perlers that are harder to make are better to sell and people tend to reason the price more with those. some people also steal other peoples original designs and claim them as their own

@Pixythefox: I sell kandi at my school and usually I include singles as freebees. I only sell singles alone in packs of 10 because of how easy they are to make even then, I only price them at 1 dollar per pack of ten. hopes this makes sense!

I think it's less of kandi in general but more of singles that people have a problem with. Even if singles are cheap, there's still the shipping cost.

do you think 1 dollar (w free shipping) for 2 singles would be overpriced? /gen

I think it's because most people sell only 1 single for $4 which 1 single could be made for free. I personally think that selling 1 single for a price is ridiculous,,,, but if you sold 5 pieces of kandi singles for maybe $2 or $3 then that would be better. That's why I don't usually buy only 1 single, because while 1 can be made easily, 5, 10, 15, or more takes longer time than 1 single, esp if you are almost out of beads. Hope this helps ! ^^

It's mainly just singles, but cuffs and masks and bigger projects that actually take a lot of time and effort are alright to sell. Also yes, bulk packs of singles are alright but not just one
