[QUOTE="Jeremiahj07, post: 598085, member: 18832"]I've read that it is a good idea to put a border around the outside of the main image that shown with your listing in eBay search results. I think the recommended color was blue. Also, if you are pretty confident that there is interest in your item(s), you could list them with an opening bid of $.99 to hopefully attract an early bid. Bids attract more attention than auctions with no bids, and more attention should equal more bids. You can also include related keywords in your auction descriptions so as to maybe get some traffic from search engines. Having a very nice photo of the item(s) should help as well. Using indirect or diffused lighting when taking a picture helps with that. Include as much information as you can in your description and clearly point out any imperfections so as not to have trouble down the road with the buyer. If someone sends you a question about what you're selling, add the question and the answer to the description. EBay makes it easy as all you have to do is check a box when replying to a question. If you're listing your items in multiple auctions, add something in your descriptions telling visitors to look at your other auctions as well.[/QUOTE]
