I think people are trying to tell you something Ben...

There is a reason that wedding photographers can charge upwards of 2K for a wedding album; this is NOT one of them!

Fair trade means that the people who make these are paid fair market value for them instead of being cheated out of money because of their desperate situation. I understand that some wedding photogs charge upwards of 2k or an album and I know this is not one of them. That is why I am selling them for $150. I wouldnt even mind replacing the actual album for someone once or twice if the first one falls apart after a while. I think offering these is a great way to spread the knowledge of fairtrade to people who might not know what it is. I do not offer these as part of a package(that is where they typical books and albums are) but I offer them as an add on because I know not everyone digs them.

Any who, Thanks! keep the comments coming if you want.

It's a great idea to support the fair trade movement, but I would think this would do better in a retail market vs something that reflects directly on your own quality control.

Your heart is in the right place though.

Ben. There is a huge elephant in the room. Didn't you notice?

I personally like them! Definitely Unique.

Check The Australian Quarantine and Inspection Service http://www.daffa.gov.au/aqis for requirements before thinking about importing it into Australia. They're pretty strict on Plant material and the required treatment (Fumigation I think) might be too cost-prohibitive.
