Thread: Just Started as Newbie with Ebid Store, need help please

  1. #1

    Default Just Started as Newbie with Ebid Store, need help please

    I would be so grateful if a member could view my items and advise me if I have done everything right or need to improve listings to attract sales. I have had a few items listed now for about 3-4 days without bids. Any help would be very much appreciated. Thanks

    FIRST and right now, I would change the price on the telescope, unless you want to sell it for 99 p.

    There are really few bidding wars here, and it might just sell for that.
    Ta-Ta for now!

    thanks for the advice, I've just done that. Can you see any reasons why my other items wouldn't sell.

    Welcome to eBid.

    I personally like more information than I see in your descriptions.

    I like:
    Size
    Your return policy--mailing time
    Pertinent Manufacturers information (materials--cleaning--country of manufacture--etc.)

    Astral has an excellent guide for setting up your listings and stores. All of these things can be set up once and then all you need to do is fill in your item information.

    1. Postage price to send a DVD? I wouldn't pay it.
    2. I want it NOW (lol! ) - I don't want to wait 7 days after 1st bid, thank you.

    Just my 2 pennerth..... perhaps it would be helpful to look at what other Sellers of DVD's are doing?

    Hi all just seems to be a lot of tyre kickers and cheap asses on here and E-bay, cheaver you wouldn't pay £1.40 postage on a DVD ?? this is the problem with e-bay as well these days everybody seems to want everything for nothing , think you would be as well giving it away £1.40 postage and 99p buy price how much cheaper could you go ????

    by the way sorry about the cheap asses Cheaver it wasn't aimed at you in particular I am selling on E-bay as well and have had loads of people traders trying to get the price that low that it is just impossible to send at the price they would like it for

    think I owe you an apology Cheaver have just checked dustybin listings again and the postage and packing is set at £1.40 so I take it that is a revised price I thought you meant £1.40 was too expensive, I myself send all my items royal mail first class and thought that £1.40 was a fair price but as I said dusty must have had it set higher to begin with, cheers soulman1888.

    .

    Dusty ~ postage far better. Maybe you could consider a BIN price as well as a bid price?

    soulman ~ no worries ~ your apology is accepted. We all make mistakes at some time or other.
