Is that 10% of the 'retail' cost or 10% markup ? It makes a difference
with larger numbers.

I would suggest that you ask for 50% of the cost that you sell them for.
You will need to pay for:
* your time
* postage/...
* advertising costs
* processing credit card costs

and then make a profit to make it worth while ... unless, of course, she is
*very* nice to you :-)
