Have you ever sold to somebody famous?

If so, are we allowed to say who or would it be unprofessional? Did you send them a little extra in their parcel just because they were famous?

Yes....many times
It would be most unprofessional...and rude to name them.
No extra attention was given, at all.

I didn't, but if I did I don't think I'd publicly say it... I'd probably just "squeeeeeee" with my friends :)

I wouldn't say who it was unless you have permission from them...that would be kinda rude. Even though they are famous it would be an invasion of their privacy to tell everyone they bought from you.

I never have, but I think it would be unprofessional to divulge their names. They deserve privacy just like any other buyer. And I wouldn't give them anything more than I would my other buyers. All of my buyers are special and deserve (and get) the best I can offer.

Congrats on your exciting sale!

I'd suggest keeping the privacy of all your customers sacred and treating them all with the utmost care... why would this one deserve different treatment than the last one?

Posted at 7:04 pm Jan 6, 2013 EST

I would be reluctant to disclose unless I had permission from the buyer.

Posted at 7:04 pm Jan 6, 2013 EST

that would be really cool. But honestly i don't look at their names, I just make the items print label and ship. I did think i recognized a name once but i couldn't verify if it was who i thought it was... so how can we really know?
