Usually boils down to what the item is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest TabbyBoy Posted July 24, 2018 Share Posted July 24, 2018 Simply sell elsewhere, there's no better eBay advice TBH. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean, c'mon, your advice is to completely ignore the second largest online market entirely? We get it, you suck at lego reselling and hate eBay. Give it a damn rest already. There are thousands of businesses that are full time on eBay and make a very good living at it (many of whom I know personally) get over yourself and shut up.

Guest TabbyBoy Posted July 24, 2018 Share Posted July 24, 2018 Speaking one's mind rattles one's cage. I own a sign business that has LESS overhead (rent excluded) than eBay per sale. It's a lot of work right now, but I'll hopefully be sitting back in a couple of years with a manager running it for me. Remember that US reseller margins are way higher than those in the UK according to buy-in boasts on here. People don't realise that the UK and US markets are chalk and cheese. It's up to the Gung Ho brigade to understand that. I'm off to get a Warninks now and then a Croft Original before bed... G'nite y'all.

Now you joke about hiding pins for cats to step on. You're an idiot. I volunteer for an animal welfare charity and that clip could've easily ended badly for the cat as I've dealt with a lot of cruelty cases via the RSPCA. I can't see you giving up your time to help anybody, only yourself. Assuming your school doesn't teach you this: ? Winking Face A yellow face with a slight, partially open smile and its left eye winking (right on WhatsApp). Signals a joke, flirtation, hidden meaning, or general positivity. Tone varies, including playful, affectionate, suggestive, or ironic. You clearly have a problem with your cerebrum's dexterity and I know of somebody you can talk to. Remember, I'm here to help anybody. I can give you my international freephone number if you like and you can call me as I've also worked with other mentally impaired people.

JonB Posted October 16, 2018 Share Posted October 16, 2018 Hi all Brand new to this forum, but I have been collecting mini figures for some time & have a few boxes of old series. I have just listed a full box of sealed series 4 mini figures on ebay - but when you search for 'series 4', other versions of mini figures pop up first. Any tips or hints? I have scheduled to end this Saturday. Thanks Jon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iahawks550 Posted October 16, 2018 Share Posted October 16, 2018 I would do a Buy It Now on that. I have a feeling you may get a lot of people looking past it for fear you have smooshed every package. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
minicoopers11 Posted October 16, 2018 Share Posted October 16, 2018 Yeah, it is unfortunate that it's not sealed, but keeping those sealed is not easy, given the seals are horrible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
firstofminifigs Posted November 11, 2018 Share Posted November 11, 2018 I have an order from Puerto Rico which apparently doesn't fall under international shipping which I don't offer. I do offer free shipping however. Ebay shipping label quote is $49 for a $98 set. Can I use priority rate flat rate to PR? Also where can I find game board size flat rate boxes without having them shipped to me? How do I avoid this in the future?Sent from my SM-G930V using Brickpicker Forum mobile app Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you don't want them shipped to you, you'll be stuck with whatever's available at your post office. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You may want to try the biggest PO in your area on Tuesday. Otherwise you may need to ask other sellers in your area Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vicious_violet Posted November 12, 2018 Share Posted November 12, 2018 I don’t sell a lot but I have a about 12 used sets I am going to put up within the next few weeks for Christmas. I have some pretty sought after sets, older modulars and winter village sets. I usually do buy it now but with such popular sets am I likely to get a better deal doing auctions?Sent from my iPhone using Brickpicker Forum Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zelgazra Posted November 13, 2018 Share Posted November 13, 2018 No. If they’re truly sought after, name your price and list it. Auction is too risky unless it’s ultra rare in my opinion. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil B Posted November 13, 2018 Share Posted November 13, 2018 No. If they’re truly sought after, name your price and list it. Auction is too risky unless it’s ultra rare in my opinion.Too say it slightly different (but same intent): if an item is rare and in high demand, an auction works well. In any other scenario, I'd recommend setting a target price, and potentially allowing best offers (with a minimum amount set using the auto-decline feature).
