Default Re: Ebay...

I start most all my auctions at $4.95 and let people fight over the stuff. But when I buy, I have no problem hitting the button if the buy~it~now price is within reason either. Selling is a bit of a gamble, but my items usually bring more than I expect, and sometimes when the item won't meet reserve one week, when I relist it a couple of weeks later with no reserve, it sells for twice what the reserve was a few weeks before. I'm sure others will let you know their feeings on the subject.

Try a "buy it now or best over" fixed price auction.

List and end autions on Sunday night. Highest traffic by far. Put a reserve if you feel it is nessisary, and make sure you've got good key words for the search.

I can't sell anything that ends on Sunday night. For me it's best to end on Wednesday evening or sell it before the end of the auction. Remember your first offer is probably going to be your best offer. JMO, Ed

Contact Jason (supernovaSS) for pointers on selling on e-bay. I see him get the best money for his stuff most of the time.
