Wow! This is so clear and detailed . Kept my attention the entire time. You have amazing teaching skills. I have a very short attention span.. I can say I absorbed EVERYTHING. Thank you so much!
This is easily one of THE MOST informative eBay tips video I’ve seen in a while. I’m a seasoned seller and still picked up some new nuggets of knowledge. Fantastic job, Roy! I know editing this video must have been a BEAST. Keep up the awesome work!
I learned my lesson with bids when I first started. Sold a few items for 99 cents and then later sold the same items for around 12-14$ when I used the buy now pricing.
Your channel is one of the best, I really enjoy watching your videos, I have an SEO background so I like it when people know and talk about algorithms. Nice !! In terms of learning the basis of eBay, I think you are the best. thanks.
I do best offer and I don't mind getting rid of older inventory at a cheaper cost. Typically if I get a $10 offer on a $100 item I will politely decline then add the person to my blocked buyers list. I don't want to deal with them in the future and to be honest I don't need their business so I just don't deal with them.
Frank Fritz said it best on American Pickers " We'll buy anything that we think we can make a buck on " Awesome video Roy, keep the great content coming.
Thank you Roy. You have given me, well, all of us great tips and ideas, and advice. I’m a gringo at this, and things r really slow for me. But, I just started this adventure.
Your video is amazing. I have had an account for a long time but starting now to get serious and hopefully b a full time seller. I will watch all your videos. U explain so thoroughly plus very educational!! My doenfall is the shipping process. Will ck your videos… mayb u have one that will help me. Thank you for your time. Great video
Thanks so much. You have taught me so much that I really appreciate. Keep up the good work. I am new to this and would appreciate tips on how to sell good jewelry and how to price it.
Hey Roy, long time no see, I’ve been out of the UA-cam circuit for a while. Great video, Glad I came back to catch this one. Great tips, Everything you said is true. Happy to see your doing well. Wishing you and the family a Merry Christmas. Pete
My advice is go for quality, and unless your somewhat seasoned always look up the item and not just what people are asking, but what the same or similar items sold for. Yet if you can get a item for a low price and others have the same item listed and there are a decent amount of watchers, and the profit will be good go for it! The market can get saturated. Also think about the cost of shipping.
What a great video! These were all very good tips, especially the info regarding New vs Used/Old products, Auctions, and Sell Similar. I’ve never done an auction but I want to try one soon. Also, I got excited just seeing my name in the middle of the screen at the beginning of the video! LOL! Definitely learned from this video. Thanks, Roy!
Focus on a demographic not the other-way round...ask yourself WHO will buy this dodad in my hands? if the type irritates you put it back be my advice. I personally refuse to sell any sort of sports, hip hop, tribal, kardashian type of items. That solved my return issues and messaging games 100%. Simliar mentality with electronics, games, shoes and jewelry. I simply would never talk to this crowd in person so whay would I be selling to them?
Don’t know how promoted listings work? When I list an item and “promote your listing” comes up its around 6% so don’t know how to change it? Please advise. Thank you for great tips!!
Where do you find those nice clear bags you put your shirts, clothes in? They are nice. I've been using end roll white paper from our local Newspaper Printer Shop and they are out of business, so I need these little bags. Where do you get them? Thanks. Just subscribed! Thanks.
I love those bags. They are clear with safety warning labels. 1000 (9” x 12”) Clear Poly Bags w/ Warning you can find them on Amazon. Or ebay....😁👍 amzn.to/2GcM6K3 1000 (6” x 9”) Clear Poly Bags w/ Warning amzn.to/3l0nHpJ 1000 (10” x 15”) Clear Poly Bags w/ Warning amzn.to/2SeJpdf
You can get them on eBay, they do not cost that much. Just put in the size you want. Will have to buy a bulk amount. Probably at least 50 of them to get a decent price.
I sell with a business account so I can have more listings. I do the premium account. It's so worth it. You get more free listings fees and a free fifty dollar to spend on shupping supplies. In essence the premium account pays for itself and then some. 👍
I believe that those that make money have stores. I promoted an item and it was seen by nobody. So promoted listing is useless. I have been listed for over 2 months. My sales are crap and the sale I make are the items that I lost money on and priced down to next to nothing.
I do suggest ebay promoted and don't do any sales. I will occasionally do send offers about twice a month. It works for me. But don't buy ad promoted. It not worth it.
There are people that make a living doing low ball offers on eBay. They literally get their entire inventory from sending out low offers and buying items that way. I don’t do that but I’ve seen other videos about it.
You say auctions are bad but I made nearly 1k gbo over 90 days if selling on my first ever 90 days and all listings were set as an auction I reccomend it actually what I do is whatever I was going to list it at I do the strating bid at that price then when I get a bid I know I'm atleast going to achieve the price I wanted alot and most of the time I get other bidders leading to bidding wars and some items sell over the price I was expecting I find this a good way to sell and I advise you to change you perspective on auction selling
the best way to succeed on eBay is to STOP fighting them. STOP trying to "game the system" with some tricky tactic. Playing this fight or flight game is the downfall of humanity. You and I PAY to use eBay so why are YOU wasting your money if you have to spend hours trying to go around what you are paying for? If eBay wants YOU making offers its for YOUR benefit to do so...same with all the tips they give you, the tools, the advice. We are partners not adversaries. Ya I get it you hate Big business...
It doesn't change the listing algorithm, but it will show ebay your staying active which does help the algorithm to push you products. So ....yes you can do a few items each day.👍
Better to mark them down, recoup your investment, and invest in better products. if an item cost you $5 and you are hell bent on getting 11 after 16 months you are not playing this game properly. Even after 60 days is not doing it right. Unless you trade in obscure antique type items >turns is the goal. make 25% 4 times a yr on your money is the same as one item in a yr at the same margin. If you can sell 4 George Polos for 25% mark vs some laCoste you find maybe once a yr, sell the walmart brands. Drill down and find the exact sizes-colors etc in george which sell fast. Avoid looking for the BOLOs and Home-runs...the cake is sitting ins stors all over the place.
scheduling listings is a beautiful thing. if you are like most...BINGE LIST and pay the 15 cents to spread your seeds over time. This notion we have the interest in listing even 10 quality items a day creates death piles.
This person is Considering this kind of business to earn a little Cash for a retired disabled SENIOR PERSON. HOW MANY hrs. a day is needed to become moderately successful daily ? How big a commitment is needed? Not sure if this idea is EASY to set UP ?? Time consuming? What kind of SKILLS R NEEDED??
You really don't need any skills. It is easy. Basically you get what you put in to it. A retired person can do this a little at a time each day.....I do.👍
The only problem is that I am limited by ebay to selling 10 items a month or $500 dollars a month. I do not have any money to promote. I get my clothes for free. I get name brands is excellent condition. I am ready to burn it all because everybody wants everything for a dollar can not make any money that way.

Do you wash the clothes you buy at bins, thrift shops, garage sales before listing and shipping?
Most of the time yes. If it's new with Tags we steam them.
Got some tips today thanks man just started up a store there a couple weeks ago Vin for Vintage
Awesome....hope you have great success.👍you can do it.
Don’t know how promoted listings work? When I list an item and “promote your listing” comes up its around 6% so don’t know how to change it? Please advise.

When you see the recommend promoted, you can type on your own number.

You will do great. Stay positive👍

Hi, if you don’t mind asking you. Do you sell items as business or as private seller? Also do you pay the EBay monthly subscription?
I sell with a business account so I can have more listings. I do the premium account. It's so worth it. You get more free listings fees and a free fifty dollar to spend on shupping supplies. In essence the premium account pays for itself and then some. 👍
Great video Roy.

Can a person do this kind of work HOBBY out of an Apt. ?? Or a vehicle??
You can. You just need a physical address to sign up.
How do you ship the LPs so they don't get broken enroute?
I us LP mailers with 12x12 cardboard padding. 😁👍

Glad auctions work for you and you keep doing them. I think it's based on what you sell. They don't work well for me unless I'm selling gold.😁
@@RKTreasureCenter understandable but I've just made two thousand in my seccond month
Thank you Roy. Besides a listing an item..what else peaks the algorithm? Does a sale trick it, does leaving feedback?, does sending an offer?
Hi kabby look in my playlist of videos...I have just the video for you.😁👍

Hey! So should I end a listing and sell similar on the things that’s not selling fast? Will that also help me “list everyday” for the algorithm?
It doesn't change the listing algorithm, but it will show ebay your staying active which does help the algorithm to push you products. So ....yes you can do a few items each day.👍

For sure. We gotta stay on top of the competition. 👍
I sell a few clothing items and they my worst selling items
I'm with you on that. Not our favorite items to sell.👍
Do what works for you!
For sure.

Take a deep breath. You can ask ebay to up your listings, but each month they evaluate it anyway and will generally do it for you.
Ebay is scam you got open case you lose it you after pay massively £16 back
Too bad you didn't have a good experience.
