Reply to "50 cent starting price, foolish or worth the risk?"

Ah yes, Choo used a key word...'seasonally'. Pretty soon (Aug & Sept) things will be really slow for everyone. At least that's what every year so far has been like.

My items too, are seasonal, and during the spring months I started everything at .99 and did extremely well. I can see things starting to slow down already tho so I raised my prices.

Starting low can be a great incentive to bid, especially since you did your research and you've seen that your type of items have been selling for much more than that. But you've always got to be prepared that you may have to accept the starting bid. Raise your prices so you'll come out even. If it's something people really want, they'll bid on it regardless of starting price Smile See what your competitors are charging for shipping and try to bring yours dow a little if possible. Buyers that compare will usually pick the lower price.
