On the other hand, I don't think you're necessarily doing something wrong by letting buyers know about your practices, because some truly are looking for confirmation before they buy, for good reasons, if that makes sense.june at noonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14405406383067957490noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7532541276626026334.post-78896978758913165572011-04-14T07:59:32.706-03:002011-04-14T07:59:32.706-03:00Even though it would be lovely if it were commonpl...Even though it would be lovely if it were commonplace, the fact is that we're not quite there yet! I definitely think you should point it out to buyers, I always look for that and appreciate a shop that makes the extra effort. (They often get my repeat business too!) Maybe seeing it will encourage another to do the same. :)Melindahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07287542957454202351noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7532541276626026334.post-6471774986866163602011-04-12T16:09:17.414-03:002011-04-12T16:09:17.414-03:00I totally agree with you.

I wash my clothes with green detergent, use green shampoo and conditioner, cleaning agents, etc and try to use green plastic (biodegradable plastic) when packaging food and stuff. To me thats just a way of life. But I suppose I should point out to my buyers that I use recycled metals etc, because if I were buying from me, I'd want to know that....jamauererhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15214015130833573613noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7532541276626026334.post-76070388272951864562011-04-12T09:27:18.055-03:002011-04-12T09:27:18.055-03:00Spot on Beatriz!

When we buy silver from suppliers a lot of it is recycled silver, but some jewelry sellers will use that to get more buyers, while others try to do the best they can and not boast about it.SilverBlueberryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16415298337609315511noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7532541276626026334.post-38648732796778642002011-04-12T08:34:07.853-03:002011-04-12T08:34:07.853-03:00Wonderful.
