    Sometimes things attract more bids if you start at a really low price.

    Have you got less than 12 hours to go? If so you can't adjust anything.

    All you can do is try a relsit at a lower price next time, but then if it doesn't sell again you will have two lots of insertion fees to pay and I can't imagine they were cheap the first time round.

    It would be good if you would put the postage price actually in, even if it is only sellers standard rate (if you can't find the right service on the menu). That way buyers can see how much it is going to cost from the search results.
    This is my opinion. There are many others like it but this is mine

    Thanks for all your advice. I have now relisted this here

    Thats a huge risk! Will you be happy if you only get 99 p for the record? I would only evre list at the price I would be happy to receive. I do not think you will be happy for 99p

    On another thing. Special delivery is actually in the ebay postage menus so you could put it there.

    Hi all, and thanks again for all your advice. The record sold for over £90, however it was won by someone in the US. How much should I charge on P&P and what is the safest way to send it?

    Firstly get a proper weight with all packing materials. Then check out basic costs here:

    http://sg.royalmail.com/portal/rm/PriceFinder?catId=23500532&gear=pricingcalc&campaignid=pricefinder_redirect

    You'll need airsure plus you'll need extra insurance added due to the item being over £39 in total.

    Thanks for that Soolin. I have decided to use Airsure. Item is 360 grams and including the cost for extra insurance along with packaging. £20. I have a problem though. The invoice will not let me add the p&p costs to it. Any suggestions?
    Thanks
