Talking Selling my first item on Ebay.

Selling my first item on ebay. The process was a bit more complicated than I anticipated it to be. Wish me luck.

i have sold and bought 9 items, so far with a couple exceptions, its more hassle than its worth to me, and for selling you can count 10% to 20% for misc charges!

My only exception was selling a P3B-F(i440BX) for $75CDN when you could buy a P4C800E for $239CDN

Dang, spent all my money on a new receiver...oh well.

Not that I'd buy anything off eBay anymore. I wouldn't be surprised if you got back what you paid for it.

i have had 1 other thing listed on ebay before, but i made a deal for the sale outside of ebay, so i never got credit for it. but i do have another item on ebay right now, hoping it sells by this weekend.

Just an update, it sold for 315 $ + shipping. I am pleased with what I got. So my first ebay sale went flawlessly.

i like ebay, but sometimes it is frustrating (like my latest ordeal with my wheels) but in the end i sold them and they are on their way to their new owner

I buy and sell all the time. The trick is to be upfront. I tell people I get most items out within 24 hours of payment (unless a weekend). If I don't then I email them and tell them. I check the tracking #'s and when it gets there I email them again to see if it is ok. I get feedback on 95% of my transactions because I do my best, when things don't go right I make it right. Sometimes it costs me $$ but it's about doing the right thing.

Feedback rating of 101 and counting
