~Run till sold or auctions which is best ????

[bedel]

Hi Having been here for a month ive just finished ( for now ) inputting 2300 lots in my store , ive kept visiting the forums for advice tips etc . the one that keeps coming up is the lack of sales , advice seems to be dont use the run till sold but use the relist option , knowing how much time ive spent putting up all these items relisting them when auctions end would fill me with dread , is there a limit to how many times you can use the relist facility . any thoughts would be most welcome . as for promo im just starting emailing 1500 ex bay buyers to tell them ive moved and will be changing my google adwords to send them here and not to the bay

Relist can be selected for up to 10 times. When that is up you can redo it. That is the time I use to revise or at least rethink my listings.

Hi Derek

You can edit your listings & change them to run for 8 days wth a x10 repost.....that will give you 80 days before you have to manually re-post them....& that only takes a couple of seconds to do

That way your items will still be uploaded to Google products, but they will also rise to the top of the ebid searches iykwim

Hope this makes sense

Thanks for the advice can i query one thing is 10 days the best time as i see that you can list up to 90 days with 10 reposts will this not show on the searech engines or what other disadvantages

yes you can list for 90 days but I for one will not bid on an auction that has more than about 14 days left to run..... I would not bid on a 90 day auction and find I have to wait up to 3 months for it to finish
