    Cooki2222, does listing with turbolister cost any more than the normal ebay fees. I'm currently trying to use it for the first time to sell a book. Its telling me the fee is £1.05 whereas it would be free on ebay.

    Please help

    Tommy

    If the item is one that currently has an offer on fees, like media content, then apparently the fees get washed off when you synchronise them onto the site. The software has the normal fees in place for previewing listing fees but you should pay the current offer fees when listed. Hope that made sense ... I read it on an ebay forum somewhere so haven't tried it yet myself.

    Cheers eyesparky, sorted now. I'll clicked on add photo gallery by mistake which was adding a pound. Hopefully its straightforward noe.

    for those of you that are just starting seling on ebay, and are not to sure about postage costs etc, i used to take the items and waht ever i was going to use for postage, jiffybag or box etc, and ask the lady behind the counter how much 1st and 2nd class postage would be,

    After a while you will get the 'feel' and the eye for roughly how much the postage will be. But at least this way you will not be out of pocket on the postage, i normally add a bit on the postage price to cover the price of the packaging, and a bit for my time...

    so basically find out the wieght and price at the post office, Then list the item....If you are going to list regular, items of various sizes and weights, then it might be worth investing in a good digital weighing scales.... to save going to hte post office...

    Yeah was gonna say have you clicked any extra options.

    I list my DVD's at 99p each so it costs 0.00 to put them on :) whilst if i had put them on at a £1 it would cost me 5/10p or something. Sometimes 99p will backfire on you say if the item is worth a few quid but it usually works in your favour
