Selling Guide
Where to Sell
Etsy (for the vintage aesthetic), eBay (broad reach), or Facebook Marketplace (local pick up to save on shipping for the heavy resin).
Selling Tips
Photograph in natural light against a neutral background. Use keywords like 'Brass Ducklings,' 'Mallard Decoy,' 'Duck Family Set,' and 'Cabin Decor.' Selling as a set is more profitable than individual pieces.
