Is it worth promoting an ebay item?

Ash_Pole

I'm selling a decent watch, ends tomorrow. It's not had a lot of traction, is it worth promoting it (never used this option before)? If so any tips?

I wouldn't bother now with just a day to go. Is it fixed price or auction? If its auction then hopefully you have a decent starting price as it may end up going last minute for your opening bid price. 
Too late to change them now but are your photos and description good?

It would all depend on value you researched. If when you looked at completed / sold prices and your start price was low, then it might be worth pulling the auction now before it gets a bid, then relist at a slightly higher price that you would accept, and promote. 

If your start price was punchy compared to previous successful sales, then either accept the watch won’t go for what you want and allow it to run. Or pull it and wait for the market to go back up. 

Lastly, some daft suggestions, check spelling, I recently realised that auto correct has slightly changed a brand name item I was selling as the name was similar to an object with some variation in spelling. Anyone searching for the brand name might not have picked up my item. Also check it’s In the right category.

Some good advice from Soolin, Op - hopefully you followed the advice in time (no pun intended - oops!)
