New Leather Pen Case Inquiry

[MartinPens]

I am about to place an order for a new stitched leather pen case that I've customed designed with an overseas company.
This case is a "leather" stitched case. (it's likely not genuine leather)
The flap has a hidden magnetic closure that securly holds it shut.
The inside tray is beautifully lined with an off-white felt.

Length 7.5 inches long
Height (from sitting on a surface) 1.5 inches at flap overlap. 1 3/8 for remaining case.
Depth 1 5/8

I have 5 photos to show what I can. I have it shown with a variety of pens that I own. The last photo is what the case CAN look like if it is debossed with gold lettering. I am NOT offerring debossed cases. I am ordering black leather cases only and you would need to find your own source for debossing.

Please reply answering these questions:

"If I offered this case, would you buy it?"
"How much would you pay for this case?" (please be reasonable)
"How many leather pen cases would you buy?"


After the thread has had some responses, I will go from there and decide about an order and a price in a different thread.

This is an inquiry thread only.

Thanks!

Martin

My answers are in red

i like the case but would as usual depend on the price point.

"If I offered this case, would you buy it?"
I don't think so not at this time.
"How much would you pay for this case?" (please be reasonable)
A real leather case is around $20.00, so being that these would be fake maybe $5.00
"How many leather pen cases would you buy?"
Not that many, I don't sell to that kind of customers normally.

 

[Buzzzz4]

I would consider it. $5 - 10 . I would buy 5-10.

"If I offered this case, would you buy it?" Yes, I really like the insert. Do other leather cases like this have that. I have not noticed that and that is one reason I never bought one. I like your idea here
"How much would you pay for this case?" (please be reasonable) $5-$10
"How many leather pen cases would you buy?" Depending on Price point and any quantity discount I would possibly buy enough to fill a Flat Rate Padded Envelope which would be +15 at a time.

[Jim15]

Yes.
$5.00 - $7.00.
5-10.

 

[tim self]

Probably
$8-10
10-20

With that said, what is the tray made of? Durability is my concern here.

It is a nice looking case - it probably is real leather which is much cheaper in many parts of the world than it is here in the USA. I have a very good leather jacket that I paid $19.00 for....very similar to one that cost over $150 20 years ago.

 

[firewhatfire]

yes I would buy it.
8-10 range
how many at least 10

Volume discounts??

3~5$ for 50 or more. My only issue is this design wouldn't be my first choice. Thus I wouldn't pay as much for them. It's more functional than gorgeous. As of right now each customer gets a nice bigger case and a velvet or leather pen pouch.

This case is kind of in the middle.
