Things NOT to Sell on Ebay
We watched 40 Year Old Virgin on Direct TV this weekend and it got us thinking: do people actually think they can sell all that stuff on Ebay? The auction site isn’t the free for all it used to be and you’ve got to have something good to get it sold. Here are a few ideas for what NOT to waste your time on
VERY Used Merchandise: Unless we’re talking about a Tiffany lamp, no one wants to buy your years old, heavily used item. If it’s not practically new you’re going to have a hard time unloading it so think twice about putting it up for sale.
Cheap Stuff: Sure, Ebay used to be the place to clean out your attic but don’t try to sell every cheap item individually. Instead consider putting like items together and selling them as a set (300 Beanie Babies at once, for example) and watch your sales explode.
Items Too Late: We’re talking about tickets and items that are only useful for a certain period – you’ve got time this out. Put them up at least a month ahead of time so potential buyers won’t be scared off by shipping times
