Anyone know how e bay works to sell stuff on or of its worth the bother!!?

[FRANKYM3]

As question realy, have a pile of old stuff to clear out from my garage and although have bought loads of stuff off e bay have never sold anything?

They say I need to work out postage for all items, but how the hell do you do that with bulky items and what else is involved? Sorry 4 being stupid!:o

I would have thought some of that is for collection only,however if you need to get an idea of postage costs have a look here

If you dont want the aggro of posting,list it as collection only,or for the buyer to arrange their own collection service.You will need to agree some sort of charge for packaging as well,especially if they are arranging their own courier

I Know your right Sabbath, but your talking to a hoarder here!!! LOL Cheers for info though!!! Have loads of reclamation stuff from work, slates, fireplaces, etc.. etc.., would that stuff sell on there too? Be even harder to arrange posting that lot tho!:(

Other solution would be put verything in the back of a van and drop it to my house, i will take pictures, advertise everything, reply to e-mails and questions and sort out all the postage, you can keep track of everything on line and i will give you all the proceeds in cash minus a 20% fee for my time and efforts

Thatd be great, but I live in Norn' Ireland! Cheers though! How do I sell on e bay with no rating as no sales:confused: :confused: :confused:

Just be honest when you list the items,explain it how you have on here.As for the slate etc lots of the overnight parcel people do a set rate for 20kgs per pallet,like these people :

Franky,

I have sold a MANHOLE COVER on eBay before!!!
Wrapped it up, and posted it via a courier service on eBay, bought the postal service! They used DHL I believe.

You can sell anything on eBay.
I just cant be bothered with it lately as I am too busy and have lots going on, otherwise I'd sell the PS3 games that I dont buy, as right now for Xmas is the ideal time!

Dragons Den me says, you take pictures; send to me and I will advertise and sell it for you. If its sold; you arrange all the packaging, postage etc...and I take a 20%:D How does that sound?:)
