I want to start up a selling platform that only sells within, and out off Australia.

Who would like that as a platform?

I have sold sweet FA on Ebay, but i dont think its improving for Australian sellers.

Please, if you have a  selling structure, or any ideas that you may think is a positive angle to explore for selling , and  that support the 

sellers of Australia being with the ability to compete against trashy rubbish or volumes  from OS please reply, Regards.

LOL. Yep.

We listed our top 10 most popular ebay sellers on there.

8-months went by without a single enquiry or sale.

So we closed that one all down.

Re: "Australia out" only selling.

Booky, just a tip....

Many people find items from using the search field.

You need to have those key words in your title.

Think about your item and popular key words that relate to that item.

If YOU wanted to find what you're selling, what would YOU search for?

 

The description is not a searched field.

 

Putting in "Kitchen stuff. New and used" will NEVER sell...... 

Put in a bit of effort.....

There's alot of space available in the title, perhaps move up a few key words in the description to the title?

Re: "Australia out" only selling.

In addition to what the typhoon said re key search words-

Your photos & descriptions are somewhere between poor & mediocre.

The oil cans would appeal to collectors if marketed correctly.

Offering Cash on Delivery as you do will certainly help or this that an error?

Think it should be cash on pick up.

COD is if the seller is delivering or an Aust Post service which is expensive.

Many thanks for that kopes.

I am aware of what it should be & also know about the AP service.

However by listing over a dozen items in this way the OP is leaving himself open to potential problems with buyers...if he gets any.

Re: "Australia out" only selling.

Couldn't do too much to the first as it's out of focus.

 eBay item number:    172125098404

 

Brighten up your pics and take them at a good resolution. Crop as needed.

No excuses for bad pics these days. Just delete and take another.

Take 10 pics, then pick the best.

 

Take more than 2 pics. Show spine(?) and rear. Perhaps inside cover.

If it is a sketch book...... show some sketches.

Re: "Australia out" only selling.

Yep 99cent comment, not cheap gaurds actually, a  spare set i used to carry when i was competing.

Why do you talk like that to people who owe you nothing or do not know you.

It reveals yourself in an unfavourable light.

Is that you dislike Australian goods?

Your the second troll encountered on this post, and for what?

I will not post again, for my sake, and it may fancy you to understand is that i am not pushing my sales, i have other means 

to earning, im just clearing" stuff "so you are incorrect, as are others offering advice of which i did not ask.

More to the point is the train of common assumption in my circumstance.

Ive worked hard and have experience in a particular field that is full of  qausi advisers, and im at the top level of my game.

Often the know it all , gold fever types who jump to talk are those who are lacking skills or results.

I appreciate people on this post who are giving of their time in replying and are truelly giving by evidence of their post, but 

others are just lurkers like Tp who wish to vent their bound , ceasar wanna be , automata blurts online.

Transport- posters ill keep a post of what you sell and how you manage things.

Re: "Australia out" only selling.

Members here have tried to help you by pointing out how to maximise your chances of selling your items by using searchable titles and keywords. 

You have some very salable items but no-one will find them even if they use the actual item names.

I would also suggest you use spellchecker....your shin guards will never be found by anyone searching for shin guards as the title is incorrect...you have "gaurds".
