Can you make a profit on Ebay?

Congrats on your ebay sales. Now that you have learned it can work I advise not being the lowest priced anything. Why? Lower prices can convey lower value.



If you want to continue with ebay selling work on making your photos the best you can. Making certain to highlight any defects, damage/wear etc. Its harder to complain about a defect if you have a good up close, in focus photo of the defect.

The lower prices were to ensure that I moved all my items rapidly. I needed to get my investment back, plus I wanted to make sure that I got my 10 sales each month, and got good feedback from all the buyers that bothered to leave feedback, so that ebay would raise my selling limit.

Now that ebay has upped my limit to 30 items, I'm pricing things a scoch higher, since I don't really think I'll need to get higher limits any time soon. The things I have listed now, I'm happy to wait for the pricing I want.
