Selling to Buyer

[beauty_235]

I recently sold two dolls on ebay to a buyer who turns out to be another seller who resells my dolls for a much higher price on ebay does this happen all the time?

I am well aware of the fact that people do resell stuff all the time on ebay and make an even bigger profit then before I guess you have to be pretty well informed and do your homework or research before listing an item.

Im tempted to buy from you myself. Lol

Quick google search I just did - USED carebears can sell for $350? Full size USED strawberry shortcake can sell for $250, new for $350.

Yours might be the maccas ones but they are still offical care bears.

I would not be selling those toys on Ebay. Popular 80's toys are collectors items and very popular right now, and they would do better on a vintage doll auction site or something similar - like the ones I just found on google (carebears had an average of 10 watchers!).

Your polly pocket castle could be worth $150 if you have the dolls for it. If not, its still work more than 6 bucks.

Also, you dont have enough photos,  or enough info in your listings for someone to be really confident to bid. 

Shortcake doll - no pic of damage, no real detaisl other than name and date.

Polly pocket - no pic of castle open ( people wouldnt even know it opens by your pics), no details about missing or included peices etc etc). 

Most people will bid on the spot. They dont really want to take time and effort to email you and wait your reply just to find out the basics, they will just bid on someone elses item

If you fix up the pics and descriptions, youll probably get much better price for the items.

Finding the rough value of then also only takes a 5 min google search.

Dont be fooled by the new in package. Used toys still sell for a couple hundred.

I do have photos of the castle open a couple of them already. The strawberry shortcake doll is not damaged.

When buying or selling I always use thhe search engine combined with completed or sold tab ticked. Saves a lot money both ways. With 40 free listings a month,Im not sure why people start auctions so low.Can't blame a person that see the value in an item.
