These 5 tips will help you keep your eBay profits.</span></em></strong><br />
<strong><em><span style="color: #cc0000; font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">I’m directing this article to those who are just starting their eBay Selling Venture. Whether you’re selling motorcycle manuals, catalog DVDs, tunes, collectibles or clothing, all things (with the exception of eBooks and services) need to be mailed. And it’s the postage, handling fees and mailing that seems to cause a great deal of angst among new sellers. </span></em></strong><br />
<strong><em><span style="color: #cc0000; font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">You’ve heard the advice – don’t overcharge for shipping. That is very good advice, indeed, as nothing turns off potential buyers like sellers who gouge you on the shipping costs. It’s also a practice that can rack up bad feedback.</span></em></strong><br />
<strong><em><span style="color: #cc0000; font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">However, I’m going to play Devil’s Advocate here and suggest that you don’t go overboard and give so much of a break on shipping that you’re chipping away at your profits. It’s good to remember the “hidden costs” of shipping: bubble wrap to secure your breakables, tape, shipping envelopes, boxes, etc. Then there’s the gas you put in your car to take all those trips to the post office.</span></em></strong><br />
<strong><em><span style="color: #cc0000; font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">You might think I’m being cheap, but, if you added up all your eBay expenses for the year (as some did for their recent taxes) you might be shocked to see how all the packing materials and gas for your car added up and took a little chunk out of your eBay profits. And, believe me, they do add up.</span></em></strong><br />
<strong><em><span style="color: #cc0000; font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">Some people are even more surprised to find they underestimated the weight of their packages, causing their profits to shrink even further. </span></em></strong><br />
<strong><em><span style="color: #cc0000; font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">How can you be fair to both you and your buyers?</span></em></strong><br />
<strong><em><span style="color: #cc0000; font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">1. Buy a scale. It may sound simple, but purchasing a scale can save you a bundle in shipping. If you’re just eyeballing the weight of the package, you can often times guess too low, and be in for quite a shock when you go to the post office and see the package is going to cost twice what you thought to ship. </span></em></strong><br />
<strong><em><span style="color: #cc0000; font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">2. Know the dimensions of your packaging before listing the item. Some packages cost more to ship because of their dimensions. Knowing the weight alone isn’t enough. </span></em></strong><br />
<strong><em><span style="color: #cc0000; font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">3. Offer the buyer a variety of shipping methods. Some prefer speedy delivery with Express mailing, while some prefer to save money with parcel post even though the wait is longer. It’s always a good idea when using parcel post or other slower ground shipping to alert the buyer by email that it can take anywhere from 8 to 10 days. </span></em></strong><br />
<strong><em><span style="color: #cc0000; font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">4. Save yourself money whenever possible by using boxes that have been used. Most stores are more than happy to let you rummage through their old boxes and take some home with you. But, do remember to choose boxes that are presentable, secure and strong enough for your items. And, if you have breakables, don’t skimp on the bubble wrap.</span></em></strong><br />
<strong><em><span style="color: #cc0000; font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">5. Give yourself a small handling fee that will cover your expenses. Some sellers add on an additional $1 or $2 to the shipping fees for their handling fees (depending on the cost of the item and how much packaging you have to use). I really advocate doing this because your expenses will add up if you do a lot of selling on eBay. Be sure to be upfront with your buyers that you have a small handling fee so they can’t complain about it later. </span></em></strong><br />
<strong><em><span style="color: #cc0000; font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">Being fair to both yourself and your buyer will keep you both happy, and keep more of your profit in your pocket.</span></em></strong><br />

It seems the most popular question I receive from a great number of e-mails from subscribers. Most Frequently the question they ask is, <strong>“Please tell me an easy way to make money on eBay.”</strong> I suppose the answer to this question really revolves around how you define the term <strong><em>easy</em>.</strong> </span><br />
<span style="color: orange; font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">It is my belief that there is no easier way to make money on the Internet than by selling items through eBay.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: orange; font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"> What could be simpler, a straight forward 5 step process.</span><br />
<span style="color: orange; font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">.</span><br />
<span style="color: orange;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"><strong>1. Get something to sell. <br />
2. Photograph it, and write a description. <br />
3. Upload your listing to eBay. <br />
4. Collect your money. <br />
5. Dispatch the item.</strong> </span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: orange; font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">What could be simpler than that?</span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: orange; font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">But I suspect what people are really asking is how can I easily get products to sell. From my experience this is what both newcomers and some experienced eBayers find difficult. So in this article I just want to highlight 5 very simple ways that you can get products to sell without even leaving your computer. This I hope that will be easy enough for everyone. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: orange; font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">1. <strong>What, no photograph?</strong><br />
It is my belief that there is hardly an item listed on eBay or any of the other online auctions that does not benefit from having a photograph or image included in the listing. In fact most items that are listed without a photograph that actually sell tend to fetch 20% less than those with. In some categories the figures are even higher. For instance clothing items offered without a photograph average a 78% lower selling price than those with. So it would seem to be pretty easy to browse eBay looking for these “photo less” items, buying them and then relisting with a photograph. Money for old rope really.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: orange; font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">2. <strong>Finding the poorly listed item.</strong> <br />
There are many reasons why someone’s listing fails to attract any worthwhile bids. Bad title, short or poor description, wrong category, poor spelling and so on. You can find these by browsing around the auction site, but I would suggest an easier method.</span><br />
<span style="color: orange; font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">Select the categories that you are interested in and look down the search feature for items finishing within the next hour. Here is where you will find the bargains that have failed to attract any bids for the reasons we have mentioned. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: orange; font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">3. </span><span style="color: orange;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"><strong>Unsocial hours</strong>In any book about eBay you will find tips on when is the best time for auctions to finish. The most suggested times for most items are Sunday afternoon and evenings and Wednesday evenings. Some experts suggest that for business related items Monday or Tuesday during office hours are best. If you accept that there are times when you will get increased bids for your items there must also be times when if your auction ends you will not do so well. I would think if you have an auction that finishes between say 5 am and 8 am on a Monday morning you will not have too many people lurking to place last minute bids to push the price up. Again buy and relist with your auction set to finish at a more sociable time and you could easily make a 20% or more profit for very little effort.</span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: orange; font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">4. <strong>Buy Collections</strong> <br />
One of the easiest ways to make money on eBay is to cash in on other peoples laziness. If someone has say a collection of 10 china dogs, it is a fact that if they put all ten in one listing as a collection they will get less than if they had listed each item separately. But it is amazing how many sellers cannot be bothered to do this. I have in the past bought such a collection and actually made more from one of the items than I had paid for the whole collection. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: orange; font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">5. <strong>Other online auctions.</strong> <br />
Over 95% of all online auction sales are on eBay. They have the largest number of registered buyers and items listed for sale. For this reason items offered for sale on eBay get the best prices. So why not search around some of the smaller online auctions, because in many cases items listed with them will not attract such a good prices as could be achieved on eBay. Then all you have to do is buy from them and relist on eBay.</span><br />
<span style="color: orange; font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">So there are 5 easy ideas for you to consider. Why not give some or all of them a try.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: orange;"><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">One of the programs I use to drive more traffic to my eBay auctions is </span><a href="http://www.auctiva.com/stores/viewstore2.aspx?id=626330&page=home"><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">auctiva</span></a><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;"> .</span></span><br />

<span style="color: #ff6600; font-family: comic sans ms,sans-serif; font-size: small;">Here are the various kinds of software that you're not allowed to sell on eBay, and how to spot them. You should always try installing used software before you sell it, as this might give you a few clues.</span><br />
<b><span style="color: #ff6600; font-family: comic sans ms,sans-serif; font-size: small;">1.Pirate Software.</span></b><br />
<span style="color: #ff6600; font-family: comic sans ms,sans-serif; font-size: small;">This one is reasonably obvious, but pirate software can be hard to spot. The biggest things to look out for are auctions that don't have pictures or only have pictures from catalogues, unrealistically low prices, and come with no manuals or documentation. Microsoft software comes with a Certificate of Authenticity, which you should check. Software that is on recordable media such as CD-RWs is usually pirated.</span><br />
<span style="color: #ff6600; font-family: comic sans ms,sans-serif; font-size: small;">If you see software that offered for download only, it is often pirated but not always. Some small software developers allow download licenses for their software to be resold on sites like eBay. Type the name of the software into a search engine, and go to the manufacturer's site to check. Remember that software you download is very unlikely to come with resale rights, though.</span><br />
<b><span style="color: #ff6600; font-family: comic sans ms,sans-serif; font-size: small;">2.Beta Software.</span></b><br />
<span style="color: #ff6600; font-family: comic sans ms,sans-serif; font-size: small;">Beta software is pre-release software, issued by companies for testing purposes. Companies generally do not give permission for their beta software to be sold or redistributed, as it won't be as good as the final product. Do not buy anything that says it is beta, and return anything you receive that says beta or not for resale or distribution anywhere on the CD or during the install.</span><br />
<b><span style="color: #ff6600; font-family: comic sans ms,sans-serif; font-size: small;">3.Academic Software.</span></b><br />
<span style="color: #ff6600; font-family: comic sans ms,sans-serif; font-size: small;">Some companies sell special educational edition's or student license's for their software, which are designed to make it affordable to students and teachers. You can only sell this software if you are a licensed educational reseller for the company, and your buyers are educational users. Academic software will usually say somewhere on its CD or in its installation what it is.</span><br />
<b><span style="color: #ff6600; font-family: comic sans ms,sans-serif; font-size: small;">4.OEM Software.</span></b><br />
<span style="color: #ff6600; font-family: comic sans ms,sans-serif; font-size: small;">OEM stands for Original Equipment Manufacturer' this is software that is only supposed to be distributed with a new computer, as it came pre-installed on the computer. The licences for this software usually stop you from selling it without also selling any hardware. Look out for the message for sale with a new computer only, or similar. Note, though, that it's usually fine to bundle any OEM software you come across with computers that you sell on eBay.</span><br />
<span style="color: #ff6600; font-family: comic sans ms,sans-serif; font-size: small;">If you sell any kind of software that isn't allowed, then eBay might shut down your auction, or your sellers might realise what they've bought and leave you bad feedback. It's not really worth the risk.</span>The Hawgpithttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09169560249631656971noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4808211669994554347.post-8215101317439537382010-10-03T14:43:00.000-07:002010-10-03T14:43:52.465-07:004 Secret Keys To Dominating Ebay<strong><em><span style="color: yellow; font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">There is no doubt that eBay is packed with competition. Each day there are millions of dollars passing through that website into many accounts. If you follow these four tips, you will easily succeed and dominate the competition on eBay.</span></em></strong><br />
<br />
<strong><em><span style="color: yellow; font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">1) <span style="color: orange;">Try to get excellent feedback.</span></span></em></strong><br />
<strong><em><span style="color: yellow; font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">When you first sign up with eBay, you will have zero feedback. Most buyers will stay away from an eBay newbie with zero or very low feedback. Start building your feedback rating by selling personal items from around the house that you no longer want. This is a good way to get the feel of using eBay and to build positive feedback. You should invest in a good digital camera. Good clear pictures are an important selling feature on eBay. Remember to describe your items accurately and honestly. Do not try to trick or deceive buyers in any way. You really cannot afford receiving negative feedback this early in the game. </span></em></strong><br />
<br />
<strong><em><span style="color: yellow; font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">2) <span style="color: orange;">Do not lie about your auctions.</span> </span></em></strong><br />
<strong><em><span style="color: yellow; font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">Do not ever use deception in your auctions or try to make money with shipping costs. If you treat your customers the way you expect to be treated you will never go wrong. You will certainly be well on your way to building a reputation as an honest future power seller. </span></em></strong><br />
<br />
<strong><em><span style="color: yellow; font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">3) <span style="color: orange;">Stay away from negative feedback.</span></span></em></strong><br />
<strong><em><span style="color: yellow; font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">If you happen to get a few bidders that do not pay, just simply resist the temptation to leave negative feedback for them. Leaving negative feedback will only result in possible retaliation by the non paying bidder and negative feedback for you.</span></em></strong><br />
<strong><em><span style="color: yellow; font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">Keep in mind that you do not want any negative feedback right now. Buying items off of eBay is another great way to build positive feedback. When you win an auction, pay for the item immediately. The result will be positive feedback for you. Most buyers will not care whether your feedback came as a result of buying or selling ,just as long as it is positive. </span></em></strong><br />
<br />
<strong><em><span style="color: yellow; font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">4) <span style="color: orange;">Do some research before making wholesale purchases.</span></span></em></strong><br />
<strong><em><span style="color: yellow; font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">After you have built a significant feedback rating, you should be ready to start purchasing wholesale merchandise to sell on eBay. If you have your eye on a particular item you think might sell on eBay, first do a search of that item to find out what people are bidding. If it looks great then it is probably a good deal for you. If it does not appear to be getting many bids, you should stay far from it. </span></em></strong><br />
<strong><em><span style="color: yellow; font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">You can also do an advanced search for auctions that have already ended. This is a great way to find out the final bid price for a particular item. A few extra minutes of research can save you from a giant headache down the road. It can also mean the difference between making money or not.</span></em></strong><br />
<strong><em><span style="color: yellow; font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;">Remember that eBay is the largest auction site in the world. There are people who make a living selling and buying items. They will fight the competition in order the stay dominant. After following these simple tips, you too will easily dominate the competition.</span></em></strong><br />
<strong><span style="color: yellow; font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;"><span style="color: orange;"><em>I am proud to have </em>Positive Feedback: 100%</span> </span></strong><br />

For every seller who doesn’t like the idea that their item might sell for a far lower price than they intend, there’s another who wants to shift hundreds of the same item quickly. eBay tries to cater to all tastes. This email gives you an overview of the different kinds of auctions and their advantages for you.</span><br />
<br />
<br />
<span style="color: orange;">Normal Auctions.<br />
<br />
These are the bread-and-butter of eBay, the auctions everyone knows: buyers bid, others outbid them, they bid again, and the winner gets the item. Simple.<br />
<br />
Reserve Auctions.<br />
<br />
Reserve auctions are for sellers who don’t want their items to sell for less than a certain price – a concept you’ll know about if you’re familiar with real auctions. They work just like normal auctions on eBay, except that the buyer will be told if their bid does not meet the reserve price you set, and they’ll need to bid again if they want the item. If no-one is willing to meet your price, then the auction is cancelled, and you keep the item.<br />
<br />
Fixed Price (‘Buy it Now’) Auctions.<br />
<br />
Buy it Now auctions can work in one of two ways. You can add a Buy it Now button to a normal auction, meaning that buyers can choose either to bid normally or to simply pay the asking price and avoid the whole bidding process. Some sellers, though, now cut out the auction process altogether and simply list all their items at fixed price. This lets you avoid all the complications of the auction format and simply list your items for how much you want them to sell for.<br />
<br />
Recently, eBay added a twist to fixed price auctions: the ‘best offer’. This means that buyers can contact you to negotiate a price, which could be a good way to get sell some extra stock at a small discount. The only downside to reserve and fixed price auctions is that you pay a small extra fee to use these formats. In general, it is more worth using reserve auctions for higher-priced items and fixed price auctions for lower-priced ones – but remember that you can combine the two formats.<br />
<br />
Multiple Item (‘Dutch’) Auctions.<br />
<br />
These are auctions where you can sell more than one of a certain item. Dutch auctions can be done by bidding. Buyers bid a price and say how many items they want, and then everyone pays the lowest price that was bid by one of the winning bidders. If you have trouble getting your head around that, then don’t worry – everyone else does too! These auctions are very rare.<br />
<br />
What is more common is when a seller has a lot of one item, and lists it using a combination of two auction types: a multiple-item fixed price auction. This just means that you can just say how many of the item you they have, and offer them at a fixed price per unit. Buyers can enter how many they want and then just click Buy it Now to get them.<br />
<br />
Now that you know about the different types of auctions, you should make sure that the items you plan to sell don’t violate eBay’s listing policies. The next post will let you know what’s allowed and what is a big no-no.<br />
