Thread: Need Urgent Advice.

  1. #1

    Default Need Urgent Advice.

    I am not sure if I priced this item to its worth value. Item Number: 46467516.

    Can someone advice me if thats too high or too low or a specific value?

    Thanks in advance.

    An item is only worth what someone is prepared to pay for it so the question I suppose is academic...

    It's a RUS listing - out of curiosity why is it an urgent question?

    Have you tried google search to see what others are selling it at?

    Well that is true, but one has to be realistic and reasonable to apply charges so that item will sell. I don't know nothing about collectible item hence needed urgent advice from people to point me in the right direction.

    Apology for my ignorance but what is RUS?

    RUS is Run Until Sold. These listings are usually at the back of the lists for viewing so it is usually better to list for say 7 - 10 days with 10 auto reposts. This way items are constantly working forward to the top of the list for viewing.

    As graphskill says, research it for the best answer. I research my things because I don't know either. Then I consider what I would be happy with (usually less) and go for that. Even so, it isn't an automatic guarantee it will sell.

    That listing,along with your other buy nows,has some erroneous code in it.
    Code:
    <textarea style="width:100%;height:100%;position:absolute;top:0;left:0;right:0;bottom:0"></textarea>
    You'll need to delete it as it's b*ggering up the page!

    Strange! How did that happened? Anyway thanks for pointing it out to me. I've fixed it now. There was a text box layering over the other texts.

    Your pricing strikes me as reasonable, but, then again, I'm not a plate collector, so I have no idea of the value of such items. If in doubt, you can Google, as mentioned above, also ArtFact and Ruby Lane are sites I check frequently for prices on items I'm unsure about, as both have a lot of older vintage and antique collectibles listed.

    Best wishes for many sales to all,

    Also, as a slightly humorous aside (hopefully)

    Perhaps you should not be asking your potential customers here if the price is right? If I were a collector perhaps I could be tempted to say your price is way to high, and that you should sell for $5, I then snap it up and sell it on

    On the other hand, you may have hit on a fantastic selling ploy. How many of us have checked out your item
