Ebay sellers: when you sell, is it more convenient to buy a digital scale so yo can weight things?

I have been selling on ebay for a while, and have always used the digital scale that I have at my office to quote prices. In ebay, or if you go to the USPS web site, you can calculate postage based on the weight and size of a package. Postal rates are generally the same no matter where you are sending within the states. You also have the option of letting buyers calculate postage before they bid, and the postage will be caculated at the end of the auction, thus saving you the trouble of quoting postage up front. Hope this helps.

Whenever I need to buy something, I check eBay first. I look first at auctions that have a reasonable shipping cost and a Buy It Now option at a reasonable price. I stay away from sellers that don't accept Paypal or charge excessive S&H. If I ask a question and don't get a response within a day, I skip that auction. I consider feedback also. Everything else being equal, the auction that provides the most complete information is the one I'm most likely to pursue.

I'd stay away from them.  They are more trouble then they are worth.  If you plan on selling on Ebay, it's really unwise to sell things you dont already have.

You can also list at http://www.ebay.co.uk\n\nIts a UK site but your account is also valid at that site. You can sell items on that site as well, but you will get mostly UK buyers. If youre from UK, you should sell on that site. If most of your customers are from UK, then you should sell on that site.\n\nIf they are paying by paypal. then it will automatically convert the dollars to pounds for you, and vice versa.

Make sure you know your marketplace. I've sold on ebay for years in different niches, and you cannot go wrong with doing lots of research on there, anything from constantly knowing the other sellers in your category to price comparing with finished auctions. I cannot stress to you how important customer service is in this; even the largest and biggest sellers lose me after one transaction if they make promises or have no kind of "touch". Keep in contact with your customers, and you'll reap the benefits. Good luck!

eBay will give you a good idea of the current market value of the item in question.

if you want to get the most money for them, you would be better off selling them to a collector in person, but if you are going to sell them online, eBay has the largest amount of people looking for things to buy

Depends on what you are using it for and how much you want to spend.  If you are just using it for term papers, and such just get one off ebay.

First of all, I have been an ebay user for 5+ years. I am so used to its interface now, honestly, any big layout changes will make me mad.  For a frequent user, the fancy or modern UI doesn't matter. New functionality however is different and will be appreciated. For example, I wish they have a way to sort or filter on the shipping cost, or make their system more reliable without regular maintenance breakdown every once a while.\n\nThe mutl-color eBay is one of most recognizable icons on the internet, live and fun.

I have been selling home decor items online for about 6 months, with a friend's help (she does most of the work, I do the books & finances).  We have experienced several frustrating situations: many damage claims with UPS and FedEx, even though we have researched best way to pack our product; ebay has been making many changes to their site, which always affects the listed items in some way; and also the fees incurred to list items and to have a store is really ridiculously high. There is a fee for everything!\nOverall, we have enjoyed it-the shopping for inventory is the best! After 6 months, we are finally beginning to show a profit. We hope to expand to other auction sites soon.  Next will come a "brick & mortar store." My friend  just dreams of having a "real" store!
