Re: please check out my listing and provide some criticism and advice

I haven't got too much advice atm but there are a few books that have $17.85 post.I don't know where you got that figure but it seems a bit steep.

There is a Sydney book seller that i love 'cos he takes a pic of a couple of random pages which i find helpful to see if i like the writing style of the author.Sometimes it proves to be a match  for me & other times it helps show that i would hate the style & the reading of it.

 

Do you have any defects on your DSR?That may get you less views.There is a nice little tidbit in the user agreement somewhere that states-

"...accordingly to drive a positive user experience,a listing may not appear in some searches & browse results regardless of the sort of order chosen by the buyer"

Dunno,there is a lot of listings & competition in the categories of your listings & it seems many sellers are struggling for sales on eBay.

look I know what you mean (about saving time) but I have over 900 listings of cards and I scan them myself.  If you want bigger pics then go to your online source of where those pics came from, right click them and choose "search google for this image".  It will (hopefully) pull up exactly the same image and give you the option of better sizes.  I am guessing you are aware already of copyright on other people's stock photos? (ie. that you have authority to use them?)

I try to take 12 photos (if possible) even for a $2.99 item...it can set you apart (& avoid INAD)

yes I scan all my cards myself - it is tedious I know but it can save you a lot of hassle in the future.

It is actually against ebay listing policy to use stock photos  for a second hand item.

 

All listings* on eBay.com.au and most other eBay sites must meet these requirements

  • Every listing must have at least one photo.

  • Photos need to be at least 500 pixels on the longest side.

  • You can't use a catalogue or stock photo if you're listing an item as 'used'.

Your used Underbelly book is the 2nd most expensive, due to your postage cost, that I can find find on ebay, only just beaten by one of ebays biggest book sellers who is selling it brand new with free postage.
