I'm not great on the advice but a shop near me does this and as far as I know people pay them for the description and also for the larger items they pay them of storage for the listed item. I'm not sure how well it works though, I go in there about once a month and often there are several items almost permanently in there.
If your ebay listings usually sell well then its feasible to have a go and say charge 10% of the final selling price. If your posting the items as well you could also have a separate charge for that.0 -
Don't forget that there are Ebay listing fee, 10% (?) final price fee and Paypal fees then your 10%....0
