Simple trick for selling more on ebay
What to doWhen selling items on ebay you might notice some products can be exactly the same but one sells for much more. Why is this? Often times it is because of a few simple things.
Have a great listing
Make sure when posting your item to sell on http://ebay.com/selling make sure you have a clear category in mind. Think about if you were wanting this product how would you find it on ebay? That is the first step to making sure you reach the right people with the most money to spend on your item.
After make sure you go into detail about the product. What is unique about the product? Why should I want this over an alternative item? You need to be more focused on what it is the buyer wants and what they are looking for.
Take good photos
Photos are crucial to getting more money for your item. People place a value on how an objects look. This is why many people pay thousands of dollars for fancy items in department stores when you can often find the same item at a second hand store. Mostly the difference in value is just perceived and that is what we are going to take advantage of.
A great resource is http://pages.ebay.com/sellerinformation/how-to-take-product-photos/index.html. Ebay has tons of easy to do notes on how to take photos. My personal suggestion is to build a small light box. This is what pros use and it can cost only $5 to make.
A link to making one is http://www.instructables.com/id/Super-Simple-Light-Tent/
I have seen a personal increase in sales from this one change.
