<p>[QUOTE="BoneDust, post: 1168881, member: 24592"]Download something like Dreamweaver or some free HTML program so you can make a template page. You can use this page for all of your auctions. If you use HTML it's more attractive and professional looking. Try not to spend much on ebay fees if your item is common or not worth it. Go with 7 day auctions ending on Friday, Sat, or Sunday. However any day works. Give free shipping. Add the shipping cost to your item for auction unless you start it at .99. Also you can use the Buy It Now option along with the auction. Accept returns on your items unless you are selling a hoard or can't keep track of what you are selling. Use nice pictures that will open full screen when clicked on. You can get free web space to upload your pictures. This way you save on ebay fees. Make your descriptions accurate. And get right to the point while adding the title. Dont use words like WOW and AMAZING because they are a waste of space. When people search, you want them to find your item so use words that you think other people would use. On the bottom of your page put Feedback Appreciated! Thanks! If you plan on selling long term as a business then buy mailing supplies in bulk. It is alot cheaper. Give expedited shipping. Go 1st class mail with insurance and tracking. You may also add these costs to your listing. Give other shipping options as well.</p><p><br /></p><p>Ebay will take 9% at auction end so you might want to also add this to your costs.
