I cut mine up in 12 pieces per medium frame and sell it in a pint jar wholesale at $6 (chunk comb with liquid honey). I have estimated that the comb takes up about 40% of the space in the jar (so it sells for about $2.8 per slice - Gross). The math works out to be around $280 per super (Gross Sales not Net).
I don't have quicken up right now, but I think we have sold around 10 to 12 supers. Bad thing is that I ran out already... probably could have sold 30 supers.
For the last few years, I "toyed" with the idea of selling an entire frame directly to the consumer at $100. My wife thought I was crazy so we didn't do it. This year we had a few people ask for them.
Yep, I sold them for a $100 per each frame. We sold a couple of them like that right before I ran out :ws
Next year, I am going to produce some supers of cut comb in the little half frames which are used in queen production for $55 or $60 each. (I will give a hint, women want them for parties to display and have guests eat on a platter with blue cheese, crackers, etc.). The amount of money to this crowd is irrelevant.
