I am trying to get general demographics for my craft business before I re-vamp my website. I just need for people to look at my site ( www.geocities.com/wigwamcrafts) and give their opinion of our prices. I am also looking for general age, gender, and income figures to see who are interested in our crafts before I re-do the site. We are also interested in wholesaling and retailing. Any advice would be helpful.

I am trying to get some form of demographic information before I re-vamp my web-site for my craft business. All of our items are 100% hand-crafted and we have had to slow down on our powwow traveling so I am trying to get more business via the internet. I am looking for retail and wholesale business as I am able to run the biz full-time while my husband is working.

So, without giving out too much personal information, could people please check out my site and then give me general age, gender, and rough income amount so I have a general idea of our pricing structure. Also give me any input or advice that you may have.

My husband and I have a Native American crafts business that deals mostly in hand beaded jewelry. We normally travel the powwow trail but with gas prices the way they are it is making it very hard to cover expences. I have decided to try wholesaling my jewelry. I would still earn an honest living and cut out all the aggrivation of traveling. But have no idea how to reach contacts and let the word out. I do this full-time, so production is no problem. I have a paypal account already set up. Most of my bases are covered except getting product out on the market. Does anyone have realistic ideas or would even be interested?

Friends of mine have just discovered an antique silver cuff link(?) box that her mother has. It has a shirt with like a bow tie embellishment on it. It also has the initials JB with the date 1758 on the bottom. Does anyone have a rough estimate of the value of such an item? It is in very good shape for its age.

I have a job washing dishes and I am of Native American heritage. I barely make minimum wage. I have friends of other ethinic heritage that have a similar job, have less job duties but are getting paid at least $7 hour. I am over 30 years old and a teenager who is of european/ white heritage working at the same place,without many of the job duties gets paid more. Any thoughts?

I have a daughter who is involved with drugs and is planning to sign over custody of unborn child to paternal grandmother who is not of Native heritage. I also have 3 year old grandson that I have not seen since April '06 by same daughter. I believe the drugs and other influences have caused her to neglect his needs. He was a tiny tot grass dancer until all this has gone down, so he has been exposed to his heritage but his mother and her friends are keeping him from it now.
