i've never sold a single thing on ebay

are their tips that are helpful, like i know to set a reserve price but i've noticed a lot of times items with a buy it now option(even if you could still bid a penny) never have any bids

thanks, i have some things i'd like to sell on ebay

12/3/2005 3:31:04 AM

my weiner will go on

There are some auctions that only offer something for "buy-it-now". You can't bid in those. You just simply click on "purchase item". There are others where there is a buy it now, but you can still bid. If the bidding gets close to the buy-it-now, the BIN disappears, and I've seen many auctions where bidding actually went in excess of the original BIN price (in other words, the bidders would've been better off taking it for the BIN price).

Reserves are great, I always set one in my auctions.

Also, be wary of seller fees. They (eBay) charge you a certain percentage based on what the starting price was, and they also charge you another based on what the final price of the item was. If your item doesn't sell and you didnt have a reserve price set, you'll have to pay for listing fees. However, if you had a reserve price set in your auction, and the auction ends and the reserve isn't met, you can relist the auction for free.

12/3/2005 3:39:50 AM

so ok, in your expert opinion

say i had something thats probably worth 80(2.66ghz pent 4 processor with heatsink and fan)

if it was your item, what would you do

i wanna set the reserve at like 65 but start bidding at a dollar or something, how much is that ebay fee thing

12/3/2005 3:53:44 AM

^ Basically set the reserve at the lowest acceptable amount for you (although i believe is costs a bit for having a reserve). then yes, set the initial amount at like $.99 to get the least possible initial listing fees. For an item of that value, the ebay fees shouldnt be more than a few dollars but make sure you factor that in when determining your reserve.

12/3/2005 4:06:32 AM

^ok thanks, thats what i was wondering...like if ebay is gonna get a few bucks i'll make it a few bucks higher

or should i set the reserve like 5 dollars lower and up shipping by 5?

so many dicisions i dont wanan put something on ebay and have nobody wanna buy it or something

12/3/2005 4:08:39 AM

A lot of your questions can be answered in their simple FAQ, but one thing they can't stress enough is that if you don't have any user feedbacks, nobody trusts you, and they will NOT fork over anything close to retail value. If you've got the feedback you need, go ahead, but I warn you, Ebay is AN ELECTRONIC GARAGE SALE.

Yes, I'm pissed at Ebay.

12/3/2005 4:53:59 AM

wtf, ok so if i got like 32 feedback but its all positive people aint gonna buy my shit?

12/3/2005 5:58:19 AM

Even worse. If it's under 200 and all positive, they're suspicious because they think you're a shill-bidder (get other accounts to buy your own stuff and give yourself positive feedback). I'm not saying that's always the case, but that's the story.

I got the suggestion from someone on here to just buy a lot of cheap stuff to rack up the feedbacks, then try selling. I tried selling a $360 item and... I don't want to describe the results.

Oh, and DO NOT inflate shipping costs, or they'll know. If you're dealing with an experienced bidder and they figure out what you're up to, they won't even bid, they're a lot of other stuff to buy on Ebay. Just be honest with that part of it, and they'll respect you.

There's so much to talk about in way of suggestions, but Ebay has it pretty clearly spelled out here.

[Edited on December 3, 2005 at 6:29 AM. Reason : thanks for your help though]

i sell quite a bit of stuff on ebay, over 600 transactions so far...

1) do a search of whatever it is you're selling. then, on the left side of the screen (under search options) check the "completed listings" box, then hit the "show items" button. this will show you all the auctions for that type of item that have ended in the previous week or two. this is how i get a feel for about how much i'd like to get for my item. say i'm selling a pair of mj shoes. if they've been going for anywhere between $225-$350, i'm going to probably set mine at about $325-$350 buy-it-now to try to get the high end of the going rate. i normally do a 7-day auction. if the item hasn't been sold after 3 days, i'll "revise" the listing and lower the price. i usually continue to lower it in small increments every 12 hours after that until it either sells or gets to the lowest price i'm willing to take for it. this has worked very well for me.

2) maintain your feedback at all costs. if you are selling something like a cd, don't say it's "in mint condition" if it has scratches on it. make sure you describe your item accurately. if someone feels like you screwed them over, they will leave you negative feedback. once you have negative feedback for misrepresenting your item, a lot less people will be willing to bid on your items in the future and others won't be willing to bid as high as if you had 100% feedback. i had my feedback up to 230 with all positives, and someone left me a negative over something stupid, so i had to start all over with a brand new user name.

3) take good pictures of your item. the pictures are what really sells your item, not your description. i use a backdrop w/ a white background to make it look as professional as possible. if you have a lot of clutter in the background, it takes the focus off the item. which of these items looks more appealing to you if you are looking at buying a used ipod?

a)

or

b)

4) lastly, make sure you have a good item title. when someone goes to search for your item, think of the words they are most likely to type in the search. make sure you include alternate spellings to keep the search as broad as possible. for example, i just sold a sopranos season 5 dvd set. instead of just putting "sopranos season 5" i put "sopranos season five 5 fifth dvd box set." if someone typed in anything other than "sopranos season 5" with the first option, my item would not have even come up in the search. with the second option, pretty much any possible combination they use will bring up my item into the search.

hope that gets you started...good luck.

i have never heard of such a thing...sounds like a stretch for anyone to start thinking that simply because a person doesn't buy/sell a ton of stuff. as far as tips...the description is key. be sure to include as many keywords as possible that people will type in a search for your product. i don't really like setting a reserve cause i think it discourages bidders...but thats just me. also...look for an auction of the same product that was successful in selling for a good price and model your auction after that.

12/3/2005 10:26:21 AM

I sell items $300 to $1k every once in a while and I only have 40fb. I've never had anyproblems

when making an auction take your time and describe the item, it being a processor there is most likely a premade ebay page for it and you won't have to do anything but list it and then mention that its never been installed...

starting an auction at $0.99 will get you a LOT more views/bids than if you start it at what you want for it, I've had MUCH better success starting at $.99 with a reserve. On one particular item I had 5, the first 2 I priced at what I wanted for them and it took two auctions to sell them each. Next time around I started them at $.99 with a reserve pretty close to what I wanted for them and made almost twice as much on them b/c more people were "watching" them

one really important note: it doesn't matter what they sell for on the rest of the internet... your going to get Ebay price for them, kinda like TWW but more people.

12/3/2005 12:20:04 PM

also how do you guestimate how much shipping is gonna cost

i dont think it would be like more than 5 bucks if i weighed it out, but could i jew it out like a buck and just put 6?

12/3/2005 1:13:05 PM

I'm going to be pretty clear on this, so state "PRICE PRICE PRICE"

Nothing insane, something you'd buy it for.

12/3/2005 1:16:31 PM

out in california they have 'sell your stuff on ebay' stores all over the place

i dunno about in nc though

12/3/2005 1:45:39 PM

yeah there used to be one of those right next to the Raleigh Grande movie theatre, but the guy went under. his prices were outrageous so it was no surprise why nobody wanted him to sell their stuff.

A little paranoid are you? Jesus man, its one bad feedback in 230 responses. Thats like half a percent. People realize it was prolly a missunderstanding, and they arent going to be all perfect. I think you overracted a little bit.

12/3/2005 5:07:42 PM

yeah honestly if you read the persons feedback even if they got like a 95% half the time its over stupid shit and they reply to explain, i think lowest i've ever even seen was 94 percent and i bought something from the guy and it was great

most of the people that leave bad feedback are prolly jewish bastards that wanna get a dollar out of a penny

with 1 out of 230 thats like 99.5

i've never had any problems buying or selling

nobodys ever questioned my feedback

and ive bought/sold some bigass expensive shit

12/4/2005 8:24:40 PM

never use reserves, use the completed auctions to gauge how much your shit will sell for. reserves suck, they dont workm and your item will prob not sell. sell most things at 0.99 no reserve or make it a buy-it-now.

i would plan on having a 20 feedback or so or higher (all positives) before trying to sell high priced stuff. if you have negatives, your bids will suffer.

if you have low feedback follow the following instructions, 1 cent ebooks are your friend.

Quote :

"^ I bought some ebooks for .01 to .50 cents, you can get grocery coupons for <$1, baseballs cards (if you like them or want to give them as a gift) can be had for <$1 to $2 etc just run a search for these items, sort be price to find the lowest ones. leave them feedback and you'll more than likely get yours. seems to be the easiest way to boost your feedback "

12/4/2005 8:57:22 PM

^ohhhhhh shit your the man, i never thought of looking up arbies and hardees coupons before

12/4/2005 8:59:48 PM

oh and don't get ripped off. if youre take a paypal payment, and the item is say > $20, make sure you're shipping to a confirmed address. If its more than $20 but less than...say $80 or whatever, and they don't have a confirmed address, then make sure they have glowing feedback, email to confirm their shipping address.

always get a delivery confirmation, USPS priority is your best bet for things that only weight a few pounds, ship heavy stuff via fedex. print all your shipping labels at home and drop off the packages.

if you really want to learn how to do it, check out a book from teh library...or buy a used one off amazon. those books have alot of info. i would recommend one by Scott Wingo.

Im pretty smart on eBay stuff, in my 5+ years I have done well over $15k worth of sales. If you want some tips or want me to sell something for you PM me.

12/4/2005 9:38:55 PM

As I understand it Google will soon offer a community/classified service and an alternative to PayPal(yes, there are plenty of alternatives already, but this one will really catch on because Google pushes it) Microsoft also has an online classified service in the works.

Ebay's days are numbered.

By the way, Ebay owns about a third of Craigslist's stock. Ever wondered why craigslist still looks like a shitty webpage from 1997 and has a "local community" focus? (ie, no "Search Other Cities" function) For that matter, Ebay has a pretty shitty website too. Sure, it handles a lot of traffic, but it has glaring faults. Lack of competition is a bitch for the consumer.

12/4/2005 10:06:19 PM

^^if $15k in 5 years makes you smart then i'm an Ebay demi-god, i've done at least $50K in the last 5 years, these are my sales in the last 60 days. at least half of that is profit.

12/5/2005 12:52:47 AM

DONT SET A RESERVER PRICE. RESERVE PRICES ARE GAY.

I always start mine at a penny. If you are selling the thing anyway there is no point deciding up front how much its worth. The market will decide for you. I have also found that it incites bidding wars because more people bid and some of those ebayers have big egos and hate losing.

Every cell phone I have ever sold on there was started at a penny and closed for top dollar.

Low starting prices bring on the bidding wars.

12/5/2005 11:04:35 AM

no, it's not my job, just a little side income while i'm in school and working another job. it would be very hard to make it a full time job simply because there is a lot of runaround work and you don't have a steady income. some weeks i'll only make like $50-100 profit, and other weeks i can pull like $400-$800 like recently. it all just depends on what kind of deals i can find. between the time it takes to find stuff for cheap enough to make a good profit and the time it takes to package everything up and bring it to the post office, it takes a good 5-10 hours a week. sometimes it's just not worth the hastle. i usually look for at least a minimum profit margin of $20 or more per item after fees and shipping for it to be worth my time.

12/5/2005 12:40:06 PM

I've never sold anything, so this is just an educated guess, but I would limit the sale to the US. I personally wouldn't want to deal with international shipping, language barriers when trying to answer questions, etc. Just seems easier.

PS: I tried to buy something from a dude in Canada, and it was a big mistake so I now never buy from anyone outside the US.

12/5/2005 12:54:26 PM

I only do ebay sales on the side, kind of a hobby. I am very business like in my methods though and take it seriously, thats the only way to really be sucessful at it. There are some good tips being given here but there are too many variables for each type of item to make a blanket statement like "never set a reserve prive" or something like that. Im at work now, but tonight I will try to give some good tips for beginners in this thread.

12/5/2005 2:45:45 PM

preciate it man

12/5/2005 2:59:33 PM

note: if im not mistaken whether you start your auction at $100 or start at 99 cents and a reserve of $100 your listing fees are the same. if you do both, you're gonna get double charged (not that you ever would). correct me if i am wrong there.

personally i hardly ever buy from a person with a reserve, because nothing is gayer than winning but not meeting the reserve. i would just start low and put a reasonable buy it now.

buy it now is cheap (is it 35 cents flat fee?) but helps a bunch in my experience whne ppl like me want to avoid bid wars. i made about $500 in a month just buy buying low buy-it-now packages and parting the items out.

that said, the feedback issue is not as harsh as some ppl would have you beleive. i have about 38 feedback and have sold about 10 paintball guns in the past few months (guns i've sold range from $400-$700 so it is obvious ppl must trust me). half were on ebay, half were on a forum. i got at least an extra 25-30% each time i sold similar items on ebay (not always possible b/c competition). i've since been accused of selling a broken item (not true, i won paypal dispute), but have still been able to sell things relatively normally.

that said DO NOT buy a bunch of coupons. it might be good to bolster some of your numbers, but many ppl will see that as sketchy. im worried when i see a person who has only bought things, especially if they are cheap.

best things to do are common:
-end at a high traffic time, weekends and evenings.
-set reasonable buy-it-nows and reserves
-low starting price
-you can easily make a little extra on shipping (i usually make a buck or 2 extra), but dont go all out or no one will buy from you. you can calculate postage online if you know the weight.
-make quality and thorough auction titles
-ALWAYS have a pic and make it decent, clear, and close up
-use subtitles or other features if really necessary (i did it for my WOW account)


that said, if you do get a negative, restart unless you have enough feedback to counteract it. i have a lot of buys and sales so i didnt bother. most of my sales were in related items and i explained that i won the paypal claim which gives at least some credibility.

if you get ripped off buying something DO NOT leave neg feedback unless they have already left you feedback. better to have no feedback and file a claim or whatever than to get negatives. it seems assumed that buyers always leave positive feedback first as well. if you sell dont leave feedback to avoid them giving you an ultimatum (free shipping or neg feedback for you). theres a lot of controversy about it, but better safe than sorry.

This is true, most of the awnsers to questions anyone has about eBay can be found on their website, but it isnt always simple to find them.

Quote :

"if you don't have any user feedbacks, nobody trusts you, and they will NOT fork over anything close to retail value"

I would not say this is completely true. While it may appear to some potential buyers that a seller who recently joined the site and has little to no feedback is a total rookie, what the smart buyers are basing ther bidding decisions on is the item description. If the seller has a concise listing, with proper shipping details and payment instructions, then they should have no problem selling their item, and getting their asking price. Often, new sellers may even be more willing to work with you if a problem arises during or after a trasaction because they want to build that positive feedback rating.

Wow, cddweller it appears you have had a bad experience or two and youve become quite paranoid. I cant offer you much help without knowing more but I will say again that a quality listing is key and not having one may have your problem. All your comments about potential bidders suspecting a seller of shill-bidding and your advice as to inflation of shipping costs, well, thats just inexperience talking.


prep-e touched on the most important part of preparing to sell an item- research. Ill come back to that later. He also mentioned revising an item thats not performing well after a few days, I personally dont do that unless it is something I need to sell in a hurry, but thats more of a personal preference.
He also mentioned the importance of having an accurate item description and title, also good points. Taking good photos falls under an accurate description, but I wouldnt totally agree that this: "pictures are what really sell your item" is always the case- ill also come back to that later.

Quote :

"i had my feedback up to 230 with all positives, and someone left me a negative over something stupid, so i had to start all over with a brand new user name."

Totally unneccasary! I remember my first negative feedback, which also was over something idiotic, and I felt devastated that my flawless rating had been tarnished, but in hindsight it is most certianly NOT the end of the world.
At the risk of shocking a couple of you people heres how I (and believe it or not a great many of eBay users) choose to look at it: A user with overall positive feedbacks and a couple of negatives should be held just as highly as a user with 100% positives. YES the reality of the system is that bidders/buyers are most certianly NOT as paranoid as other people in here may lead you to believe. That little negative most likely is the result of some jerk who was quick to jump the gun and drop that negative comment BEFORE even contacting the other party about whatever problem there was. Luckly there is now a provision within the feedback system for negative feedback comments to be mutually withdrawn, but that dosent always mean they are- and in the scheme of things that is a relatively recent addition to the feedback system. The only exception to this in my book is where the negative feedback was left in the users last few transactions OR for items similar to those you were considering buying/selling from or to the member OR if it does not appear that the user made no effort to correct the problem.

Yes and no, it depends on the buyer. If someone is just looking to shop around and get the best deal on something then yeah be prepared to get the eBay fair market value. If someone comes along and wants what you are selling, and it is readily available to them from you and not any other immediate source to them, then they will likely give you what it is worth.

"also how do you guestimate how much shipping is gonna cost"

go ahead and package your item as if it was already sold, take the weight and dimensions to your favorite shipping website and calculate it there. you may or may not want to factor in your time, travel and packaging expense, and/or additional profit into the shipping price you include in your listing.

Not arguing your policy here, but my policy as of late has been when a buyer has sent their payment, they have fufilled their obligation to me and I promptly leave them feedback. Then when they recieve their item, they remember that and if I have done my job right they in turn leave positive feedback for me. I started doing this because I dont like or need to hold feedback over anyones head, and I dont really really need everyone to boost my positive feedback at this point. If my feedback and description arent good enough for a future potential bidder, and if they choose not to send me a question (which is really really easy for them to do) then they are not really the type of customer I want.

i got a negative once and kindly asked them to remove it and they did. I was prepared to offer a $10 refund or whatever would be required to get them to remove it, but they just up and removed it (mutually withdrawn). For a seller one negative feedback and kill your average selling prices for a bit.

Quote :

"also how do you guestimate how much shipping is gonna cost"

i just charge flat rates, for smaller items that I can ship priority I charge $10, For heavier items that may cost $15-$20 I charge a flat $25 or $30 or more. Just picking a shipping fee means you don't have to do the legwork of weighing stuff, using the calculators etc. Or you can use the shipping calculators included in your acution. I prefer not to though, I like to be more upfront to prevent them saying they didn't know how much it was to ship.

12/5/2005 7:18:37 PM

also if you get a negative, for god's sake, dont type in all caps. it makes you look crazy.

i build the shipping into the buy it now and offer free shipping every time. it seems to work pretty well though ppl have still paid the shipping and neither of us noticed until much later (im not complaining).

thats what i used to do, but while researching feedback policies i came accross a LOT of people who had user try and hold feedback ransom. ive never encountered it myself, but better to be safe than sorry.

another thing to note is, what if a buyer has a problem with your auction and raises hell or threatens to file a claim on you? thats not a good buyer, even though he paid on time. like i said before, i sent a guy a paintball gun that i had tested and used. he sent me an email a few days after he got it describing some standard problems. all the gun needed was a lube and to unscrew one screw about 1/4 turn (jarring during shipping often turns the screws in/out a bit and heat will dry out the gun, it is just common knowledge about pb guns). he left me no feedback, i left him none. 3 weeks later he said it was broken and listed about 3 new problems that probably came from him "attempting to fix it." i obviously refused to refund his money as he had the item for almost a month and it worked when i had it (plus i was helpful despite his rude email, he must have been a first time buyer for those types of items). long process, condensed, he lost the paypal claim he filed and left me negative. i was glad to have not left feedback.

i did a ten day auction for a sprint phone that i got drunk and lit on fire. (even labeled it as having fire damage) it was beat all to shit but it worked fine though.

this kid (probably a state student cuz his zip was 27606) bought it for 80something bucks when brand new ones were selling for 120.



I started it at a penny as I do almost all of my auctions and once people got in to it bidding they paid top dollar.

Has anyone had any problems taking credit cards on paypal and then having a chargeback? Ive been selling since '99 but I think it is starting to become a real problem. Ive heard enough horror stories to stop accepting credit cards through paypal for most items unless they have very high feedback.
