What items do sell on eBid
Having only bought and sold once on eBid I would like to know what items do sell on eBid.
I am not a trader I am clearing out 30 years of collecting musical, disco band, electronic components, test equipment and karaoke equipment and soon the car, the house and its contents as we are due to move out of the UK 2011.
A person used to come and buy equipment on a regular basis from me, and advertise it on eBay, there were not many items that needed to be re-listed and that did not turn a good profit. (I sold them to him for next to nothing, they did not make their worth on eBay but the difference made him a good profit)
I ceased to patronise eBay when I was forced to offer pay pal which applied to everyone wishing to list items for sale. He also has now stopped since he was hit with charge back and lost several hundred pounds and his goods.
I have returned to eBid for the obvious reasons, I also use sites like Gumtree, the local free ads and the occasional car boot but that is more for domestic items, tools and test equipment (which I hate to part with) along with the odd bit of the music kit thrown in, which is more suited to domestic party type gear.
I have listed three items on eBid which after a week have not had one view I follow similar items on eBay which get about 20 hits a day.
What items are sought after on eBid and have a good sales rate, I am not looking to sell anything other than what I own and want to clear. I know there are sellers who use this platform as well as Ebay and no doubt other outlets.
What interests me are the facts and figures and what makes one selling platform more successful than another.
