why don't they sell??

vetsmom_rgv · 07-19-2009, 09:44 AM

I started ebay to do good and going to list everything starting at .99. but now i think no one cares how much it costs. because only two of my 12 things i have listed sold and only at .99. and one other item hasn't been paid for.

i have now 3 or 4 listings that are baby and toddler clothing lots (about 5+items) and there are no watchers or bidders. I include the brand, size, main color, details and if any about stains and wear n tear, which isn't many.

why are they not selling??

I did have a design on them, but with the new listings i took it off because the items were not selling. HELP!!! I'm trying to make a few extra bucks to use on my daughters birthday next month. HELP!!!

ohhh here is your link sorry! Maybe it because you put different sizes together. 12M, 24M and 2T. I would just list 12M and 24M/2T. Plus when going down the picture you see 24M then 2T the 12M then 2T then 24M I would try to group pictures by size if you child is 2T you wouldn't look at this because there is to much she is not able to were so you want the young 12M age group looking so start of by showing them what they are going to were now and then what else you have in bigger sizes.

Can I offer some help? Please just keep in mind that I am just offering advice, don't have to take it but it may help. I just listed a lot of girls clothes sz 2T and there were 25 pieces, I started them at $.99 and guess what they sold for? $104!!! So if you want some advice I can try to help. List all clothes together that are close to the same size and offer as many pictures as you can. Close ups are great too. Start listings at $.99 if possible and offer the lowest shipping rate possible. Here is a link to the lot I just sold, maybe it will help you get some ideas...

25 PIECE LOT OF GIRLS FALL/WINTER CLOTHES SZ 2T~THE GAP - eBay (item 320397134904 end time Jul-18-09 15:19:11 PDT)

Keep in mind, this listing is mostly name brands but not all and I have had much success with off brands as well! =)

Try to lay small pieces out on a flat white or black surface and get as close as you can and include the whole piece in the picture. Also include picture details of stains or little designs that might be on the clothes. People love pictures, the more they can see the better! Think about when you are buying items, you like to look it over completely, front and back, so keep that in mind when selling on e-bay.

Also use capital letters in your items title. It draws more attention to your listings!

I cant ever see your ebay stuff because when I search I cant find you.

faw0707 · 07-20-2009, 02:23 PM

I agree.... List in lots of like sizes for clothing...children or adult! It generates more interest and bids. By the time you get done paying for one item of clothing and shipping, you could have went out and found something on sale/clearance for that price. Thats why I think they don't sell as well when you list them individually.
