For example, my show shows 150 sales, but since the average amount per piece sold is possibly higher than a package of beads or beading supplies, how can this be compared accurately? I know, I know it's the way the system is but not sure how accurate this is to compare the success of shops.

I would love to see listings by genre... what are the top jewelry sellers, the top knitters, the top clothing lines.... the list could go on and on!

And most of them are bead supplies. I'm thinking that may be because when someone purchases bead supplies they usually purchase multiple listings. That's for many reasons: need various size/types of beads for a project, save on shipping, etc. I'd love to hear other people's thoughts on this as well.

Pretty much all are bead supply shops. So all of us jewelry designers are buying plenty over there. Interesting post, thanks.
