    Competitive price is so important. Additionally people going in to low might be a red flag to someone buying. I know when I look and see something so much lower I’d rather go with something middle of the way. I worry something is wrong with something priced so low that I’m missing.

      @jondurand12 5 місяців тому

      How do you balance that with trying to get rid of an item… like if I have an item sitting around for a while I price it at like 1.99 plus shipping.. do you think that’s a red flag? Thanks

  • @vickiolson1198
    @vickiolson1198 4 місяці тому

    My top 5 important thing in getting good sales are no 1, consistency in listing, then a great title, lots of great close-up photos with a plain contrasting background, great condition descriptions, and last item specifics. The more information you can give a potential buyer, the better. I also want to talk about my biggest pet pieve and that is when a person gets lazy and takes one photo of a multiple item listing and then just chops up that photo to make more photos rather than re-positioning the stuff and showing new photos from different angles.

    Thank you for sharing your experience as a reseller. I have been following your channel for several months now and I love it! I just joined the game of reselling and I am having a great time with it. Not really ready to do videos of the shopping part, I’m not quite comfortable with seeing me on one! Keep up the good work and God bless your year with much success.

    I have only promoted a handful of times. I do not like it and do not feel it necessary for my business. I do take LOTS of pictures and video when there is sound or movement in the item. I also put good titles and fill out most item specifics. I also do not run sales or use coupons. I hardly ever even put "best offer" on my items, but people still message me with offers all the time. I do make offers and get some sales that way. Very important for me is to end and sell similar, making a few changes to the listing. I try to do this on items that have not sold in 6 months to a year.

    Always do flat rate. Feels like the buyer wants to know exactly what they're paying in shipping. If its an item I'm into cheap I'll do a low shipping amount than normal. It helps with sales

    @vickiolson1198 4 місяці тому

    When I hear "flat rate shipping" I think of shipping in flat rate shipping boxes which I don't think is cost effective for the buyer most of the time unless you have a veryy heavy item that fits in one of the flat rate boxes. I think you mean fixed rate shipping instead, meaning you have put a specific fixed rate of shipping on an item regardless of where it is going to, that you have figured out based on the size and weight of the shipping package.

  • @Wherepigsflyfarm
    @Wherepigsflyfarm 5 місяців тому +1

    Totally agree about shipping. We now list everything with ground shipping but actually ship priority. Usually at the same price.

  • @ericclegg4024
    @ericclegg4024 5 місяців тому +3

    Agree 100%, though I'm not doing flat rate shipping, the total price is super important. I see some people doing free shipping but with their price, they aren't making much with what they have to pay for shipping.

  • @betsyann6285
    @betsyann6285 5 місяців тому

    Re: pictures…make sure the background isn’t an old dusty basement or garage, it makes the buyer think the item has been sitting in a musty basement for a long time

  • @MrPaulMorris
    @MrPaulMorris 5 місяців тому +2

    Price is number 1--agreed. eBay is almost uniquely price sensitive. Price comparisons are just a click away and, especially for we 'generalist' non-niche sellers, there is little to no 'brand loyalty'. I know that I certainly don't go out of my way to use the same sellers--why bother when eBay protects me as a buyer however good or bad the seller?

  • @ourtradingcards
    @ourtradingcards 5 місяців тому

    Price is always key. But buying is more important. Pricing is predicated on 3 things. Ack cost... IRR... and aRoR... So make sure you're buying something at a good price in order to be able to resell within market worth. If you blow the buy then you're going to lose the sale...

  • @silverhairstacker8664
    @silverhairstacker8664 5 місяців тому

    Yes it's a good list. Promoted - I do not promote the first 200 of my 1400 listings. The first 200 are the newest to be listed. Looking at listings 200 per page it's easy to keep up just promoting the 2nd - 7th pages of listings at 5.1% It seems to help sales of long tail items.

    I have little storage and most that I source is long tail. That said before I started watching UA-cam resellers I was walking by many bolos that do turn over fast. So now my store flows instead of dribbling. I hate promoting but I have to because my main items can in part get lost in the shuffle. I do the bare minimum plus+ .1.I do calculated but most of mine is media mail so it’s not that big a deal.

    I need help! I have a feeling Kevin won’t notice this but can I ask anyone else with selling something. I bought a Drinkworks Home Bar Pro by Keurig, Premium Instant Cocktail Maker, I bought it 6 months before Keurig decided to stop making the pods for it back in late 2021. I was going to order some pods in 2023 that is when I found out they discontinued it and the pods can not be found anywhere. I have noticed that people are selling their machines but not disclosing it. What would you do? I just want to try to recoup my money 😢 it was expensive.

    • @kelleyhughes2677
      @kelleyhughes2677 5 місяців тому +2

      As a reseller,personally I would not sell it or donate it. To the trash it goes. As a buyer I would be upset if I purchased something that is discontinued and did not have a disclosure. Unfortunately sometimes we win and sometimes we lose, it is part of the reselling business. Sorry for your misfortune.

    • @commonwealthflipper
      @commonwealthflipper  5 місяців тому +3

    • @crow4130
      @crow4130 5 місяців тому +3

      Sometimes when something is discontinued it values it higher. Anything old or antique doesn't even work anymore etc and its still sold. Discontinued items can be more valuable and I sell a lot.of vintage. Just put retired on the listing. Ppl a lot of.times are collectors of things , not buy to use.

    Just a suggestion along your theme to promote buying on eBay with eBay gift cards would you consider doing a video of the top 5 considerations for first time eBay buyers such as
    Read the description to fully understand the item being purchased old or new
    Check out the number of items previously sold on eBay
    Read the previous buyers feedback for this seller
    Checkout the sellers status with eBay
    Return policy with eBay if something is not correct
    First time buyers don’t understand the selling structure of eBay

    Sorry Kevin…I disagree. “If a man can’t find it, they can’t buy it”… doesn’t matter what you price or, or most anything else… they’ve gotta be able to find it.
