<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Lehigh96, post: 4918397, member: 15309&quot;]Whenever I see people soliciting advice like this I get very concerned for them.&nbsp; If you read the responses in this thread, you will see that some people are saying that E-Bay is a retail site and that people who buy on eBay pay more than they should while others say that eBay is discount site and you will never realize the true value of your coins.&nbsp; Basically, they have diametrically opposed positions.</p><p><br /></p><p>So who is right?&nbsp; Before accepting advice on the internet, it is always best to inquire about the credentials of those giving you advice.&nbsp; For your question, it would important for you to know if the people giving you advice actually sell coins on eBay.&nbsp; And if they do, what is there overall feedback score, yearly sales, and method of sale?</p><p><br /></p><p>Since I am the one pointing this out, it is now incumbent upon me to provide the information I&#039;ve said you should ask for.&nbsp; My eBay name is Lehigh96, feedback (1407), over 350 total transactions (last 12 months), and have sold over $10K (last 12 months).&nbsp; I have an eBay store and all my listings are BIN or Best Offer.</p><p><br /></p><p>The absolute number one thing you must do in order to maximize sales is provide outstanding photographs. Not adequate, not good, but OUTSTANDING photos.&nbsp; Your photos need to be better than almost everyone else so that when a potential buyer is scrolling through all the coins on eBay, yours catches their eye.&nbsp; That said, they also need to be ACCURATE.&nbsp; Your photos need to accurately represent the actual appearance of the coin.&nbsp; If they don&#039;t, your photos will basically be considered glam shots and you will experience high return rates and decreased repeat business.&nbsp; If you don&#039;t have the ability to take outstanding photos, you will not be able to achieve the full value of your coins.</p><p><br /></p><p>My other piece of advice is to always list your coins with BIN (Buy it now).&nbsp; If you have to list your coin in an auction format, never list it without a reserve.&nbsp; In order to successfully use no reserve auctions, you need to have a huge follower/subscriber base.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
