I opted for giclée printing, but with the high cost of printing and not knowing how many of each would be bought I opted for a pre-order system, so I could order the prints knowing that they were definitely paid for. Seeing as it was a pre-order system, it didn't hurt to offer other designs too, and that also proved successful.
The sales weren't incredible, which I put down to the somewhat high cost, but, in this instance, I strongly believe in making something of quality rather than cheaply for the sake of it. And regardless, I do not make a loss this way. I have placed my order, and look forward to the arrival of these prints. This way of working certainly isn't a way to make a living, but is a helpful addition to my working and if the market is there, there's no use passing up the opportunity!
