Question About Ebay

[pixiesmimi]

I say go for it and try it. You never know how much they might sell for if they are in good condition. If they don't sell, you are only out a minimal amount of change to list them. When I first started I almost backed out also thinking it was too much trouble and too many fees, but once I got started and sold my first item, I was hooked. I haven't sold everything I put on there but I make pretty good money with it.

By the way, if you have a PayPal account already for buying, you need to go in and add a seller's account to it.

Be honest about your description to the best of your ability. Everyone who is on E-bay is like you and me. On occasion, you will get some one who is persnickity. All my feedbacks have been positive. I have even had to refund money on some items. Items that I sent with a delivery of confirmation receipt, the people would tell me that they did not receive the item. It only happened once. So rather than try to go through the post office, I just said, "Forget it". I do insure most of my items if breakable. All in all, it has been a good experience for us. We have two accounts set up, and do nicely. Make sure you take good photos and use a photo tent. It really helps. We do accept paypal and money orders as well.

I have sold quite a bit of items. Once Earnhardt passed we ended up selling our entire Nascar Collection, and one thing that I would recommend, is to pay the extra money to track the package. I found this out when someone told me that they did not get something and they actually did. So if you got the proof that's their problem!!!!!!

After the 10th of this month, I think that is the right date, you will no longer be able to take any form of payment except PayPal. You have to change all of your auctions to reflect this or they will take them off. That is so Ebay (who owns PayPal now, I think) will get all the fees instead of people getting around them by accepting checks and money orders. I don't like that but there isn't anything we can do except complain. They have been known to change their policies after a lot of people complain.
