Default Opinions on selling on ebay...

Posted By: Cobby33

1. Depends on what you expect to net. I don't sell "for a living," so my profit margin expectation is much lower. I usually forego the extra $30 unless the card is going to sell for at least $500.

2. I would say 7. 3 and 5 are too short, you don't get the exposure you would normally get. 10 is too long, as people have many times found other things in the extra time that they would rather spend their money on.

3. I always do Best Offer with BIN. BIN should be your "best day" price and Best Offer gives you the opportunity to take the money and run, or hold out for more (don't be greedy)! BIN without Best Offer is useless, since it disappears after the first bid (unless you have a reserve or high starting price, which scares a lot of people off).

4. 6 of 1, half dozen of another.

5. $.99. Believe it or not, you'll get a lot more preliminary action once the first person bites. You'll have more people bidding at $100 once it has bid up, as opposed to someone starting at $100 with their first bid.

Have fun!
