I post as many photos of the item as I can. Good photos of your item may make a big difference in the bids. I use a small light box for my photos that my wife picked up at Walmart for about forty bucks. A good camera is a must. Cell phone pics in my opinion don't really do the job well. Describe any defects as well as the good things about the item equally. I also put in the description " Please view all of the photos closely and ask any questions before bidding". Pack your items well as any shipper can play hell with a package. Weigh your package and figure out your shipping options before posting your items. I don't seal the box before the auction ends just in case the bidder wants more photos or has a question about the item. This has worked for me for a good long time. Hope you do good on your auctions.
