Black Friday deals.
We see all the deals, and we wish we could join in, but here is the honest truth about Black Friday for a small, independent business like ours:
Big retailers buy in massive bulk and can afford to slash prices. We don’t have that luxury. Our prices reflect the true cost of high-quality materials, ethical sourcing, and fair wages for our small team. Our profit margins are tight.
Extreme discounting trains customers to expect low prices all the time, which is an unsustainable model for a business focused on craftsmanship and value, not just volume.
Our “deal” is the unique product, the personal service, and the feeling of supporting a real person’s dream. We prefer to offer fair, consistent pricing year-round.
Black Friday’s massive, chaotic sales spike creates huge pressure on small teams for fulfillment and shipping, often leading to burnout without a corresponding profit to make it worthwhile.
When you shop with us, you’re not just getting a product, you’re investing in a community and a sustainable way of doing business. Thank you for understanding why we choose to skip the frenzy.
