Also be sure to give feedback to the buyer.

]]> 85015 2 0 Tip When choosing a user ID, use your business name, website’s name, or use a good keyword for your business. It will help people searching find your auctions easier.

]]> 85016 3 0 Tip Also sign up for a free Auctiva account, you can post your items at the site. They have templates you can use with the ability to post extra images w/o paying the extra to Ebay fees. You even get a free store at Auctiva that lists your auctions- similar to an eBay store.

]]> 85017 4 0 Step Do some research Look through the discussion boards, and list of hot selling items. if you’re not going to sell your own products- you will either need a good supplier or dropshipper for products, OR sell other people’s things on consignment. For suppliers and dropshippers, see what others say or recommend. Research them well. Contact them by phone.

]]> 85018 5 0 Warning There are A LOT of scammers out there! they are now targeting sellers, by acting as dropship companies. I’ve seen them advertise on Craig’s List. they offer a flat, usually super too good to pass up commission when selling their product. they collect the money and you’re left to deal w/ cust complaints when they do not get their item.

]]> 85019 6 0 Tip Electronics and computers are the catagories that lead to the highest fraud complaints. Your share depends on the amount of the winning bid. A reputable company will NEVER promise you a fixed amount. Research the company very thoroghly. look up the name, make sure their address is and information match their online info. Call them directly.

]]> 85020 7 0 Step Sell your own products. The safest way to sell on eBay is to sell your own products or products that you buy and warehouse yourself.. Unique, homemade items sell very well and for a very nice price as well. Selling things wholesale, is a good ebay business, but you must shell out a good amount of cash before you are able to make a sale.

]]> 85021 8 0 Tip A good compromise is to buy small wholesale lots of a product (many times from another seller) and sell those items. it’s a great way to get yourself established as a reputable seller. The overall profit isn’t as great, but the initial start-up cost isn’t either. In the beginning, it’s much more important to have a good reutation and feedback.

]]> 85022 9 0 Step Selling on consignment I have done very well as an eBay Trading Assistant- selling things for people and getting a commission or fee from the sale. Again, research similar items, know what you can realistically get for the auction. For large items i often suggest local pickup or suggest a local auction house. freight charges can be astromonical

]]> 85023 10 0 Warning As far as shipping fees go, do research it carefully, I’ve lost money by under estimating the S&H fees! and I have spoken to several antique dealers who have too (esp w/ calculating shipping by Freight) .Have a good written agreement for your consignment clients (you can buy kits on eBay).

]]> 85024 11 0 Tip Must haves- good quality camera. Winning bids and higher final sales are often in proportion to the quality and quantity of your photos. Do not skimp here- another reason to use Auctiva- will save you many dollars in extra fees by the month’s end. In the description, be honest, describe any flaws. Include some background, people like stories.

]]> 85025 12 0 Tip Consider creating an Affilate site. WordPress and the PHPbay Lite plugin make it an affordable alternative to a Build A Niche Site or BANS. You can even include your own auctions in this site, so you benefit by earning a commission from eBay’s Affilate Program!
