How did you sell your bonsai?

Post by Bonbon »

As I have been a bonsai fanatics for the past three years, I created hundreds of Bonsai. I have been giving them away to family and friends for their birthday. But still my backyard is now overcrowded. I am thinking of selling some of them, regain some space, hopefully regain some cost too ;) ;) ;) , for future more mature projects.

Have you ever sell your Bonsai? Any good idea of how to do it?

Sunday markets? Advertise on newspapers? Tradingpost? Ebay?

Any experience and advise welcomed. :?

A private auction at my bonsai club meetings is the only way that I have sold any bonsai. Its handy to know that they're going to someone who you know and will remain in touch.
My name is Don. I'm a UK nutter and bonsaiholic but I'm on medication (when I can find the tablets)

ad sum ard labor.
