Some things you could do to increase your chances of success here: http://mootango.webspace.virginmedia...idkb.htm#a0016

Last year my sales were up about 300% on the previous year. So far this year I am up another 60%+ on last year. Make sure you follow advice on the forums, the more I took notice of advice and learned from it the better I have done.

Hi and welcome back to eBid.

Posted this (selling suggestions) to another thread but it might be helpful here as well:

1) Offer international shipping whenever possible to widen your potential customer base.
2) If seller+ use your 5 free stores to organize your items.
3) Use BIN prices whenever possible (in addition to auction style if desired) to ensure your items are uploaded to Google shopping.
4) Use Plug Your Auctions section of the forum (1x per 24 hours, delete/close old post before adding new one) to advertise your items for sale.
5) Use social media sites to advertise your listings.
6) Add a signature link to your forum posts so members can click to view your listings.
7) Check out the Help pages and Astral's FAQs page (info. about signature link on Astral's page), lots of good info. here.
8) Tell everyone you know and meet about eBid, including former customers on other sites.
9) Use MaO if it's your thing or offer combined shipping or similar to give buyers more incentive to purchase from you.
10) List as many items as possible to give buyers more choices.
11) Use 7-10 day listings with auto repost instead of RUS to ensure your items move up searches.
12) Participate in the forums and eBid activities (as the monthly YDC charity auctions if it's your thing) so members get to know you.
