Yep...I used to lug 50+ packages to the post office twice a week...I'd pick and choose which item I wanted to spend 75 cents on for delivery confirmation...Usually I would get groans from the people behind me in line..especially if only one person was working the front counter. Since I went automated I haven't spent more than a few minutes at a post office in the last 8 months.

Listings with lots of great quality photos sell more, so start loading up now.

This is ironic because the images uploaded and hosted on eBay's service typically suck. I see they revised the way the pop-up window and zoom features work for photos, but I did not see an improvement in the quality. Sellers who host their own scans off-site typically have the best images.

And speaking of the star ratings on ebay, someone posted this on the CU forums, and I thought it was pretty funny. For those who may have missed it....

Yeah, I've almost always paid a 3rd Party lister an additional fee to create and upload my Ebay listings.

Their picture uploads and listing pages were always so much better and and more streamlined then Ebay's own increasingly complicated system.
