Has anyone ever sold burp cloths?

Hi. I'm really asking this in earnest. I've designed several burp cloths, but I've never sold any. After checking the price and comparing it to other places that sell the same product, it's no wonder. Who would pay over twenty dollars for just one burp cloth? Please let me know if this item has ever sold. Thanks.

no (but I've only made a handful), yet, I have sold a few bibs.

Nope, and I ended up deleting most of them.

I've designed several. Seems a shame to delete them, but they're just so expensive for one burp cloth. I think it would be a great idea if Zazzle gave the customer the option to purchase these in sets with different designs on each one. Also, it would probably be in Zazzle's best interest if they lowered the prices. The competition is fierce!

After making several of them, I thought back to when my son was an infant and how any old thing served well enough, be it cloth diaper or old dishcloth. They were too quickly destroyed to buy for such a short-lived purpose. Remembering this, I realized why they weren't selling and so gave up.

Just wait. Someone will show up to tell us they made a killing on burp cloths. LOL

I think there's just always going to be some products that Zazzle can't compete with, especially things made overseas in countries where the government subsidizes them for lower prices. I'd rather they be competitive on what they really can win on, instead of trying to compete with Amazon for everything.

I get it. It's just such a shame. I've designed so many - and I think they're rather cute. I have so many baby showers coming up. I'd like to purchase some of the one's I've designed, but unless I get a really big sale soon, I'll just have to go through Amazon. Unfortunately, that's probably what my customers do! Thanks, anyway.
