Hey guys,
This may have been posted before however.
With ebay removing sellers ability to use listing addons like the feature plus ($49.99) how are the small starts suposed to compete with better ranked big dogs of ebay?

With ebays "best match" a default most buyers will see the sellers with big feedback scores even if your item is cheaper and you have small feedback.

Any tips/ideas?

Thanks in advance to all you wonderful people 🙂

Re: Head to head with the big dogs of ebay

Well I could use one of my selling ids to post but how would I choose which one lol.



I have been selling for well over a decade and have thousands of feedback in total and not one single neg, no I am not going to tell you my selling ids, not relevant as I am not selling at the moment, but enough of the regular posters know my ids and can vouch for my reputation as a seller.



My whole emphasis as a seller is based on two words and they are not feedback and profit, they are customer and service.



I have found that putting those two words at the forefront leads to the best results for the other two.

I always change 'best match' to lowest price lowest postage,  and then i change to 'Australia only' so that my product gets to me (hopefully) in a few weeks not a month.


Im a new seller also,  and Ive been able to get a few sales but i know its probably only because i charge less then my main competition so that I can come up on these searches (assuming everyone does the same as I do when they search)   Once I get my sales up,  then I can put my price up.    Thats I all I can do at this point,  and a few bux off sales is more then I had in my pocket last week anyway, so who am i to complain.

Licorice I think you may do better with non stock photos when you are selling on a small scale.



I also think you should be careful with your claims for the dummy.



You say it is preferred by hospitals worldwide, I am sure there are no hospitals here in the UK who would ever recommend a dummy of any sort and even if they did not an American brand.

Phorum, QS is not owned by an American company.  It is owned by an Australian public company. 


 


Honestly, is this comment worth reporting and having it removed like my last reply.
