Selling Tomato Seedlings

I'm going to try selling heirloom tomato seedlings in 4 inch pots this spring in front of my home on a Saturday. All of the nurseries in town seem to buy from the same grower, so there isn't a lot of diversity in heirlooms available in my town. I'm going to feature a lot of hard to find varieties, so I think there will be a good market. I have a couple of questions for those of you that have done something similar:

1. How much did you charge? (I know there have been previous threads about this they are all a few years old). I have paid anywhere from $3.00-5.50 for heirloom seedlings here.

2. How many did you sell?

3. What types sold better or worse? For example, I've heard to have plenty of cherry tomatoes and that green when ripe and white varieties don't move very well.

I appreciate any input.
