Half-Price Listing Day - 50% off Insertion Fees on Wednesday 22nd August 2007***

  • I just wanted a few opinions from people more experienced than me in selling on ebay...

    I've got a few pieces (used, excellent condition designer clothes...new cosmetics) that I was going to put on today because its 1/2 price listings! Is it better to put them on a 7 day or 10 day listing? Either finishing Wednesday or Saturday? And what sort of end time is best for those days?

    I've only sold a couple of times and would really appreciate some views on this! Thanks!

    Wednesday evenings are a better bet than a saturday evening for prices. However do watch cosmetics, many cosmetic companies are members of VERO and police their goods rigorously. To avoid many of th eproblems, but not all, make sure you use your own photos and don't cut and paste any info from the manufacturers site.

    Just another tip..if you put items up for 5 days today they will end on bank holiday Monday. If the bank holiday is a wash out as weather forcasts suggest then there may be buyers online during the day.
