NO SALE!!

I was thinking of listing a few comics, so I did a search on completed listings for them (within Australia only):

First page, 200 different listings from different sellers..... ZERO SOLD.

Surely this can't be normal? Think of the hours of wasted time and effort this represents for the would-be sellers combined....

Yes, I often look at completed listings to decide whether certain items I have (or about to invest in) to are worth selling on eBay. It seems like very few things are selling at all lately, or if they are most are selling for very little. Very discouraging.

Well, if they didn't spend the time and effort to list then they had ZERO chance of selling. Maybe more sellers need to do the same as you and do the research before trying to sell. Gain an idea of the selling price and not just the asking price for items.

I'm not quite sure what the 'secret' of selling is right now.... it used to be that if you had something good for sale and priced it reasonably, it would sell.

No longer the case; maybe too much stuff is listed and saturation point has been reached.
