Much more job security with non-comissioned sales. You usually know what you are going to make each month, though you can often get "bonuses" each month for higher sales. You probably wont make as much money non-comissioned, but that also depends on your skill level. You are less likely to be put into an "ethical" situation.

Like I said, pros and cons for each. Hope you get the job and enjoy it!!! Take care.
Non-commissioned. The type of items we sell, it only makes sense to be paid a flat rate as many of them are between one and five dollars. The higher end items aren't the type you can easily encourage a customer to buy. If they want the item they will come in. Lets be honest, how many people are going buy a full calligraphy set spur of the moment?:rotfxko
