I have a few things that might catch a few bucks on ebay, problem is I've never sold on there before. Any tips/advice before i have a go at listing something? Edit: I just noticed I put this in the wrong thread, lol. Branjita, or anyone else who has the power, could you move this? |

I have sold a bunch of things on Ebay. Be sure to take lots of photos from different angles and write everything clearly in the description. Like any imperfection or damage on the item. I always go with free shipping since it makes the listing more appealing. Also remember that Ebay charges around 10% commission and Paypal takes around 2.9%.

Also just a heads up never list a loose item as mint always list it as good or great condition and try not to use words like perfect  |

I'm far from an expert on selling on Ebay, but some tips I can think of are:
Use every keyword you can think of, pertaining to your item, in the title of the auction(So a Cell Figuarts figure would be something like "Dragon Ball dbz Perfect Cell Figuarts action figure Bandai"). Avoid words like "RARE" and "HOT" because no one searches for that crap.
Be as descriptive as possible when describing your item. If there's an orange mark on the back of Goku's boot, the buyer should know about it.
Take your own pictures if possible. People are much more trusting of someone who has pictures of their own item instead of stock photos.
Read up on ebay's policies on selling. SO MANY sellers don't understand them(Some examples I can think of are sellers stating "Payment is due within 48 hours or I will file an unpaid claim against you" or "Shipping with insurance is extra")
Lastly, keep a bottle of Aspirin by your computer, you'll need it.

Seems like the appropriate thread for this and it's rather questionable.
Where to start? Lol
So, month ago foxwinstheday (eBay member) was rather rude to me. Now I have a eBay member wanting a item through PayPal (supermario 1985). Here's where it gets rather odd.
SuperMario had a rather odd time receiving the invoice on PayPal. It was over a month back and forth. Now he says it's fine, he will finish the transaction next, Friday. But, foxwinstheday bought an item on eBay from me. So, I use some sources and come to find out, it is the same person. Actually, his names seem to have a new issue every month from other ebayers.
Now I'm stuck trying to figure out if, I have a personal vendetta placed on my head. What opinions/options do other members have about this?
