increase the selling price of your auctions on ebay

If you are just spring cleaning on ebay, or are trying to run a buisness, these tips will be able to help you sell!

Difficulty: Moderate
Instructions

Things You'll Need:

  • Ebay
  • Internet
  • Paypal
  • Camera
  1. Step 1

    Picture Pictures Pictures! A few good pictures of an Item is the first step to success. Would you buy something without being able to see it at all?

  2. Step 2

    Use the Gallery feature. This will let people see a small picture before they click your add, and some people do not read titles, they just skim through the gallery.

  3. Step 3

    Be sure and take paypal. Many people use it exclusivly on ebay!

  4. Step 4

    Be sure and respond to every question you get. Who know that one question you didn’t answer in a timely manner may cost you.

  5. Step 5

    Be fair on shipping. You may scare away bidders if your shipping costs are out of line.

  6. Step 6

    Do not use a reserve price. This may trun some bidders away, because they think the seller is not motivated.
