eBay

[wishfulthinking]

Love it!

I sold a used DVD that I bought for $12.50. Thought I would be cheeky and put starting price as $10 and buy now as $20. Guess what it sold for? $22.50. Then you add postage.

Wouldn't you, when the price is around $18-$19, go ha ha you suckers and click on the buy now button?

I'm NOT going to tell you my ebay name, but I've sold doona covers (umm... not sure what you guys call them.. feather filled covers) that I'd picked up at garage sales for ten bucks for $132 (actual final bid price).

I love ebay!!!!!!

I'm an ex-ebay bitch lol

Still am, just don't sell there anymore. Their fees are a killer.

Ooooo.... and kids clothes? There's a warehouse here that sells seconds... Fred Bare top I paid a buck for sold for over forty.

I have a 'few' feedback on there lol

OK, I still can't frigging get a sellers account, bastard ebay. Did get a paypal thingy though.

So ebay is good huh? Tell me more about how it works. So you sell something and ebay takes their fee off the top of that? Or is that just paypal?

Example, Wishful: your CD, how much do you 'actually' get from that 22.50.

Thanks

You were serious then?

I'll come to you for a loan when you get rich.

Boxofrocks [aka ebay bitch - call me ebay slut if you will], you must be another aussie if you're calling them doonas!

Wishful: your CD, how much do you 'actually' get from that 22.50.

0.35 is my listing fee, then probably about $1 selling fee. So I think I would get around $21 of that, but don't quote me I go without the perks, like .50 to show my picture in the gallery, 0.50 to have a cool layout, when you can use your own html for free, etc etc.

It is great, I bought a book for $4 and it sells for $16. Sometimes things don't sell, but Abs is right, decorate shit nicely and it would sell.

Does the US eBay have the '$1 no reserve' section?

I used to love that on ours until they took it off
