    Just be sure to check your local regulations regarding pricing. In
    my area it is illegal to have items for sale that are not tagged with
    the price in a visible, printed format. Your area may have similar
    regulations which would mean that those "ugly" price tags would have
    to be on your pieces whether or not you wanted them to be. 

    Also, I know from personal experience (more than 25 years of
    operating a retail store) that customers want to see the pricing up
    front without having to ask about it. You will lose sales if people
    cannot readily see pricing on many of your items. Obviously you won't
    want up-front pricing on some of the higher-end items, but on your
    lower-end and mid-range items, visible and readable pricing for the
    walk-by customer may make the sale possible. Just my opinion,
    however :-))
