do people actually buy those vouchers??

use some colour and make your text bigger, so that people with bad eye sight can clearly see your listing.

Also use a bit of humuor i always find this helps sell, also mention that you will happily ship worldwide, remember the buyer pays for the postage so how much more hassle is it to send something to spain than it is to send to scotland?

if something has a mark on it or rip tear etc mention this first so that you are honest straight away, people look for this in a seller.

realistically price your items would you pay over the odds for something , if not start your listing low if it is a desirable item then it will sell itself.

feel free to look at my ebay login s30jok and the stuff i sell, i recently bought some fishtank lights on the sunday for £51 on the monday sold them for £100 because i made my sales pitch more appealing!!

hope this helps you out

Maybe some people are a bit concerned about vouchers. There have been some posts recently regarding vouchers that turned out to be invalid. I'm not sure that they are always transferable - for instance can Tesco points from one clubcard be used on another?

I would say that your postage is a little excessive and that your listings look a little boring.

For 1st class RD (cost to you £1?) I don't think the p&p is excessive - but why bother with RD? Royal mail £32 compensation is equally payable for lost standard mail and Recorded Delivery.

I am guessing your vouchers could be sent in a standard DL size envelope for 23p 2nd class?

You could slash your p&p to 50p (sellers standard rate) and see what that does.
