[QUOTE="kanga, post: 1269915, member: 9270"][B]When[/B] I sell on eBay here's what is currently scheduling logic. 1. Start all listings at 7PM eBay time (PST). That makes it 10PM Eastern. Why? -- It's after supper for most people. -- It's before bedtime for most people. People like to see the results of their bidding. And it only costs a dime to use the scheduler. 2. List things with a starting bid of at least $20. Why? -- The eBay/PayPal fees don't make it worthwhile selling for under $20. Group items if you have to to get to about the $20 level. 3. Ship for free. Why? -- The S&H DSR is the one that takes the worst beating of the 4. -- People like the idea of free shipping. Just make sure you add the S&H into your opening price. 4. At this time of the year start your 7-day listings mid-week (Tues, Wed or Thurs). Why? -- Sunday football may cause people to forget or ignore an item. -- Monday football may cause people to forget or ignore an item. -- Friday many people are out for the evening and may forget or ignore an item. -- Saturday football may cause people to forget or ignore an item.
