Taking a closer look at selling on ebay so you get positive customer feedback.

ebay tips

Do you sell or plan on selling items on eBay? I recently connected with a manufacturer who’s products I want to market on eBay. I’ll hold off mentioning what the item is until I have an actual auction listed. But I can say that’s a hot product to have right now. I’m currently waiting on a test order from the manufacturer to see a few things, since they offer drop shipping. A service which will make things a lot easier for me. Sell the item, collect the money from the winning bidder… then place the order with my supplier and not have to worry about shipping.

The test order will show me..

- how easy/difficult it will be for me to place the order with the maunfacturer

- how long it takes from the time I place my order to the time it actually gets shipped (comes with tracking so I can see this process)

- how long after they ship the item, will my customer receive it.

- the condition it will be received (packaging and contents).

- if the order will be accurate.

- the quality of the product.

These are all important since a big part of the eBay experience is the feedback previous customers leave on your product and service. No one wants negative reviews.

Next post I’ll chat some more about things that are important when it comes to selling on eBay.

[...] Further to my post about selling on ebay, here’s another tip I’d like to share with you. You’ll generate more sales and never have to relist your items. It’s very important that you use as many pictures as possible when you list your item. Why? If you’ve ever purchased anything online you should know that there’s a level of uncertainty before you make the purchase. It’s not as if you’re in a physical store where you can pick up the item, smell it, squeeze it or shake it. [...]
