I would guess that each of those prints would go for $20 or more on ebay.

after my experence with bremen not doing well, I would say avoid the fees and list here for $15 a yard or sit on it for a few weeks. I think baby nay is the current craze.

Man Kristi, I had to go look... I can't believe that your BTM didn't go for more than $20.

ETA: I had a few auctions go lower than I'd have liked last week too. Some fabrics that I sold for $18+ yard a few weeks ago only went for like $12. I think there's just a LOT of nice fabric out there right now. People are willing to sell their favorites to buy the new stuff, but everyone's tapped out.

I know it wasn't worth ebaying it. I should have tried to trade it for cheese toast or north pole or ice cream. Lesson learned the hard way. I can't beleive my go fish went for 43.50 and choo choos for 19 and bremen for 17.50. What is the world coming to?? lol

I know, I thought our sheep would go for more as well. lol I would have kept it honestly. I got less than 15.00 and I paid 15.00 for that one yard. Ah well. Live and learn I guess. But really, I would have kept it for a baby shower gift lol

Also, my new PRR season knits... some that were going for 20.00 a yard a couple weeks ago... I only got 7.50yd for last week.

It's baby nay's fault. lol

All I could think when I read that title was that Minkee-Munki would go for a fortune. Talk about HTF!

And yes, what are the hot baby nay prints? I may have to put up my geisha crinkle.

Well the dog with the coordinating stripe apparently. I just posted 2 yds of it with 1/2 yd of the stripe tonight and its already at $17. I got $20 for 2 yds of my geisha crinkle. I thought I saw the aviation with the stripe at over $20 for 1 yd of each. I should have gotten more of that one.

My Munki Sock Monkey is only at $9.99. I'm hoping to get a bit more than that for it.

Ebay is so unpredictable. Most of my Baby Nay has gone anywhere for $9 - $15 per yard. Even polka dots went for $16.50 for 1.7 yards after I reduced them here on the board to $3.75 and they still didn't sell! I had 1 yard of bulldogs knit recently go for $26 and then someone took me up on a second chance offer on another yard for $25 then I recently saw a yard go $7.50. Same thing happened with surfers. Sometimes it's just a fluke I guess.

I wouldn't expect the same thing with Munki Munki though because it's so much harder to find. I guess all the ebay bidders don't realize that.

So everyone can look at the closed Baby Nay auctions to see which prints are getting $$ but as more an more Baby Nay hits ebay I think the prices will go down. http://search-completed.ebay.com/bab...cusZsoQQsojsZ1
