eBay Information Everywhere

Hi World, It's been a while and I've been busy, but I answered a post today and though I'd share what I had to say.

The question was "How do i sell without it costing me lots of money? I have items that did not sell. Could anyone give me good ideas?"

My answer could go on forever but Here is what I had to say:

Not knowing what you have, my suggestions would be: If they are unique, I'd pay for a eBay store (14.95 I think) and 3 cents an ad is not bad while waiting for that unique buyer..they will find you in searches and you can capitalize on auctions once in a while when eBay has a listing special. Also you can get a free website (there are many to be found) and sell there, use paypal, they are not as hard as you may think but do take time. The flea market or a yard sale, depending on your items may rid you of some items quick. I did notice you are costing yourself money by not adding in shipping and handling. Boxes, packing material, the sheet of paper for an invoice, tape, ink, your time, etc all cost something. I could say more but I am no expert either. The one thing I have learned is - It takes time, practice, and continual learning and improving on techniques, Just be true in what you believe in and treat your customers right. You have made a good start, don't get discouraged!

In this world of instant gratification - somethings just take time. There are many sayings from the past that are just as true today:

"Good things come to those that wait"

"Patience and perserverance will prevail"

Til Next time
