Thread: New Seller Here Plugging myself for the 1st time!

  1. #1

    Talking New Seller Here Plugging myself for the 1st time!

    Only have a few items up for sale right now.
    I'll be adding much more in the coming days and weeks.
    Please see my about me page for what I'll be listing in the future.
    I welcome any advice from experienced sellers & buyers.
    Please feel free to forward my links to anyone who might be interested.
    Looking forward to my first sale here on eBid.

    Thank You,
    CreativeAcronym aka TJ

    Hi TJ,
    Good luck with your sales- to increase your visibility I would offer your goods to overseas buyers as well, had to go onto the US site to view your lots, most overseas buyers wont bother to look if they don't think you will ship overseas, so I would suggest you add your terms and conditions of sale to your About Me page, as well as at the foot of your listings.
    Plug your auctions regularly until you build up a client base, use the Social Media links as well to increase your visibility. Once buyers realise you are here, and you can show good feedback from your sales, you can expect fairly regular sales. But give it plenty of time, new sellers often get very frustrated on eBid!

    All the best
    John

    John,

    Yeah I guess I have to do those things, offer international and create social networking accounts, I'd rather be frustrated on eBid than on bay that is for sure. Thanks for your suggestions.

    Thought I had my first sale last night using BuyNow but they were a fake/unverified account and it was autoremoved by the Auction Patrol Team.

    I'll be putting more items up today, including a mixed lot of silver dimes, Apollo 8 First day covers, and perhaps some magic the gathering cards.

    Thanks for looking!

    Got my feedback imported from feebay I wish I knew about that earlier.

    Welcome to eBid!

    Here's a tip - use up all the space you have in your titles with key words. Looking at one of your GB coins, the title does not mention GB or UK or coin. If you added those words or similar it would mean that people looking for GB coins on google would have a chance of finding your coin.

    Hope you are here for the long run - it took me 3 months to make my first sale but have made steady sales since.
