New to Selling on Ebay- HELP

Hi Everyone,


 


I have been on ebay for a few years now (buying) with a different user ID, i thought i would try selling some items on ebay with a new ID and have been up and running for about a week now- i can't put all my stock on as yet as i am limited to a certain amount of listings per month. My question is i haven't sold ANYTHING yet and am starting to think that maybe this isn't the right thing for me and i should just give up whilst im not ahead 🙂 


I would really appreciate it if someone with some selling experience could help me out and take a look at my listings and let me know what im doing wrong as i don't really know what im doing or how selling on ebay works just yet. Could it be that because i don't have any feedback people are scared to buy off me...or do i just suck at this?


Thanks a lot

Haha Thanks for your understanding MotherBear.


 


Just for the record Foxette, as much as i appreciate your "feedback" those mascara's weren't actually bought from that website or from china, and if you actually go into Hairmart in any of the branches in Australia you will find them in the exact same packages and wrappers as mine for $22 on the shelf....Just saying!!

Thankyou for taking onboard my feedback re the help you requested in your OP & hoping you'll also take onboard my feedback re disposing of the diaper covers.:-)


 


 


Re the mascara,have you asked hairmart if thats where they source their mascara from ?

accessories-re the scarves,you need to set that listing up so buyers can choose the colour from drop down box.Unfortunately I can't remember how to do it as so long since I sold :8}

I know! I only have a few more listings left for this month, and if i list all colours and how many i have in stock it takes up more than what i have left on listings and wont let me post it, so unfortunately i have to wait until the new month 😞 Unless im doing that part wrong and there is an easier way to list items with different colours without using up 100 items per month...something i will have to read up on i think!


 


But thanks for the tip.

Accessories.....   I also have an account for Hairmart,   because they are a professional store for industry people only.... just wondering if you are allowed buying and selling on ebay?   Ive thought about it, but just assumed  it was against their policy.       I dont care that you do that,  just wondering if you are actually allowed?
