Do's & Don'ts of selling on eBay - Tiki Marketplace

One good photo, cropped if necessary, is what will grab a buyer's attention - keep in mind that extra pics costs extra dough - it may be of a benefit to you as a seller to state in your item description that extra photos could be sent to the buyer upon request. I have done that in the past as a seller. Saves you a few bucks and works well for both parties. Take notes and print all results for future reference. You will develop a feel for who buys what and who your competition is. In my specialized field of collecting (roller coaster memorabilia) I have cultivated personal relationships with each of my clients over the past ten-fifteen years. Sometimes you miss things...sometimes you score treasures - but there's always an audience when you go to sell things.
