I am getting ready to sell this type of bracelet on ebay. I would like to know if you would buy it for yourself, love one, relatives and/or friends? If yes, please tell me which price should I sell it at? It is a sterling silver bracelet with Swarovski crystal beads.

Less than $25.00

$25.00 - $35.00

$35.00 - $50.00

more than $50.00

Wow, I hate to insult fellow answerers, but only $200 if you'd made the chain and the beads?! Clearly, they've never done either. (and the beads rubbing together being a design flaw? OMG, give me a break!)
Sorry, had to be said. Now for my answer:
Love the design--if I didn't make my own, I'd definitely buy that--it uses a lot of common design elements, but in a slightly different order--most of the dangly designs you see have billions of beads, but you let each one shine. I also like the way you used your color. Not sure how I feel about the way you wire the ends of your pins, but again, an interesting design choice.
As for the price, my answer's going to depend on whether you made your chain or bought it. If you made the chain, I'd spend over fifty, otherwise, I don't think I'd go higher than $35.

I have not touched the link. But if I were to sell on ebay I would probably start the bid at what it would take for me to break even, maybe a LITTLE more. Then let the bidders take it on. A knowing ebay buyer will have several windows open doing research while theyre browsing through ebay.

It's pretty and excellent craftsmanship, but eBay is a fickle baby. You can't predict how much or how little something will go for. It all depends on the market at that particular point in time.

That being said, very few of my beading friends actually make enough through their beads to pay for their lifestyle.

I wouldn't purchase it. The crystals are positioned where they would wear away against each other. I consider this to be a design flaw.

If the item was made with non-faceted semi-precious beads, $35-$50 would seem reasonable, if with glass beads, less than $25.

I wouldn't want one for myself, and I likely wouldn't buy one for anyone else.

I do think it's pretty, however; I just don't know anyone who would wear it. :)

I can tell that a lot of work goes into constructing these, but I don't like the look of the beads. >.>

$15-20, in my opinion. Don't sell them for less than the materials though, of course. And keep in mind that people really should spend more for well-crafted, hand-made products. :)

I would buy it for someone as a gift if I thought they liked that style. But with ebay, what you need to do is start with a low price and let people bid for it to raise it. If you start out too high, no one will bid. But if you start out low enough, people will end up bidding higher. I think it's psychological. If you see something that is cheap, you'll bid on it. But then if you get outbid, by that time, you have set your mind on wanting the item, and are willing to keep bidding higher and higher.

I wouldn't buy it because it's assembled from store bought components. If the beads were handblown and the links hand forged, I'd pay $200.00 for it.
