This is an excellent article and I have been following this strategy even before this was written. You also should keep the price in mind that one pays for items, look at what's going, and don't rely soley on eBay to find stuff to resell. lastly, look at your business and try to identify new markets outside ebay to sell on. For one, I sell now to dealers of postcards and basically keep everything that's better. No matter what economy - people want bargains! You'll have to do more gimmicks to get buyers. Reward a coupon and free shipping, but don't give the house away. eBay doesn't really let sellers set conditions as to free shipping; however one can list s polcviy in the description field. My own website at www.mjmcoversandpostcards has items well be,ow what one finds at eBay. Looking into a website might be also a good way to sell. Ebay isn't the only site that increased selling fees. i see that this happened also on stampwants. Lastly, this is not the time to increase fees and keep restricting people. Hopefull auctiva Commerce won't require people to register as to shopping on a sellers store.
