Effective title :-
The title is the first thing at bay lsiting where the potential buyer to look at .That can attract the buyer to open the item and see the details. More people look at the item . That will increase the chance that the item will be sold and potentially sell at a better price as soon as it sell for auction. And also the title is usually the search key for the buyer. So the title must include the key word that most people will be on top of their mind when they are going to buy that item like "boots" "dining table" " gas heater ". You should fully use up the maxium characters of the title description since potentially will increase the chance to be searched and to be more attractive. Usually that will included the band name especially that was a famous band or very popular band name. Other wording in the title.... For example , instead of just saying a dining table , I will say solid wood traditional oval shape dining table...peolpe will imagine that used table is a antique,,, I even got customer buy that table because of the shape of table,since there is limited in number of words you can put on the title so you must best use of those characters . Different item should have some of their selling point or product edge you can think of. For example the item is make of special material . Then you can included in the title.
Auction price :-
I think the auction price should not set too low like 99 cents since sometime it take too long to bid up the value and it can set quite low to atttact more bidding and attraction. I think it can set at the price about 10 to 20 precent of the price you want to sell.
Buy it now price :-
I think the buy itr now price should set at the value 10 - 20 percent up the actually price you want to sell since it will affect the price to bidding up
Have the buy it now or not :-
If you can not guess what is the highest price of that item potentially can be sold . You better not set the buy it now price.
Length of the listing :-
I think longer the time of listing is better. Since it give more time to bid up the price.And it can listing longer enough for the potential buyer to look at.
Aware the start bid price and the reserve price :-
If the start bid price is very low to attract attention be aware you may sold the item at the price that you will not happy with . You will be better set a reserve price. since many people just give the start bid price just before the end listing to get a cheap bargain.
sell similar item at the same time :-
sell the similar item at the same time. Do not sell one at a time since the item can promote each other . and the ebay get the function to view the seller other item. So brain storm all your unwanted items at home before you proceed to sell.
Research similar item at the ebay :-
Not just you know the market price and value of your item you going to sell but you can copy all the idea of other seller on their listing. What title and description they included and you can added on your own. You then you are the best in the world.Especially when you are not sure what to be included in the descripotion or title. There is a lot of price word you can copy.
Make use of the relisting :-
When the item not sold , make use of the reslisting . There are alway add on new potential buyer everyday. Do not think your item will not be abled to sell out anymore.
The power of the picture :-
include more picture is better even it cost a bit of money. The good picture save many words and question. many people have the buying impulse is because of the picture. Good use of the background of the picture. Take the picture with different angle. Highlight the selling and the function of the products etc. The picture should have good artistic quality.
use of gallery :-
This will cost the money but the money is justified. The picture upfront at the front listing will attract the buyer to open the detail.
Honest of the description :-
You must include any details of the faults and damages . It will increase your reputation in ebay and also to miniize the trouble of return of the product. If it is perfect condition or near new . you better stated at the listing. Also all the description must be correct without lies. If your price is must below the RRP. Then you include the RRP is of much advantages.
Concise and more information :-
Do not make the description too clusmy to read. avoid long story since it may just bring only one good point. Include more information is better since the buyer may be more sure by himself to put a bid. It is good to inclued the dimension , weight , the country of origin, year of manufacture, the colour, major feauture and function, product extra value come with , extra warrantee etc.
The item location and contact :-
people may increase the interest in case you are nearer especially for local pick up or lower postage. Also people like to contact for some product information.
payment method :-
include more payment method is better. At least join the PAYPAL and have your bank account detail ready.
Check you email often :-
imagine the customer qery is not answered . The possibility of the deal will decrease and you must be proactive since the buying impulse will fade by time
Make yourself contact :-
Do not always have your mobile phone turn off and leave voice message. This is very annoying to myself.
