Selling vouchers on Ebay

I have got £100 in Debenhams vouchers that i am considering putting on Ebay but ive never sold vouchers on Ebay before (actually i am pretty new to Ebay to be honest).

I'd just like a bit of advice as how the best way would be to sell them. Obviously i dont want to let them go for pennies but am wondering whether to sell them on a Buy It Now price or sell them in an auction .

Obviously things like postage will have to be thought of. Would it be best to send them Special Delivery? Shall i sell them in two lots of £50?

Any thoughts or help would be appreciated cause i dont really have a clue.

Thanks

    If you type debenhams vouchers into ebay it will show you how a lot of other people list them. Vouchers are quite popular on the site so you should be OK with a relatively low starting price, just depends if you want to gamble. It also seems that lower amounts are more popular, so maybe 2 x £50 would attract more people.
  • Unless you really need the money I would not sell Debenhams vouchers because generally they do not make as much as some others.

    For example I just paid £42 for a £50 voucher - useful because there is a suit in Debenhams that I know fits me well and this will be a little discount when I buy it.

    Unless you are lucky and sell for more you could save them to buy Christmas presents?! I think they have a sale about once a month too!

    Maybe you coud wait until the next free listing day and put a higher starting price you may find someone that needs something from Debenhams and so will happily save a little bit.

    Before listing on ebay, see if any of your friends/family wants to buy them from you for a small discount.
