Not getting Bids on Ebay

2»

  • Ebay markets are really strange though. Ive seen things sold on there for silly money, but when ive put identical items on there they have gone for next to nothing.

    Ive had reasonable sales this year so far, but im shifting a lot of stuff at next to nothing prices and and keeping the postage as cheap as possible. Im usually half the price of the competitors on most things.
  • Sheer madness, I've had non-branded goods go for more than branded goods! And this was on 2 similare items ending at the same time!
    2p off is still 2p off!

  • My phrase is you can't second guess e bay.

    I too had a very quiet Jan and early Feb and it is starting to pick up now, but really it is almost luck what your item goes for.

    I wonder if people don't know how to search!
