SPORTS CARDS & MEMORABILIA

SELLING, CAN WE GET BETTER VALUE FOR OUR CARDS

Ever since I started selling cards on ebay I have notice the trend of listing going up and prices going down. There are many sellers out there who for some reasonor another will list similar items as I have and get much more than I do. Anyone have an idea of how come? How can we get into this and make it more profitable?

Hi I have been selling cards for about 3 months and at first they were just going like crazy. When I list them now not many bidders or watchers. I think it is the season. I have switched items for sale and bam more bidders. I am going to wait until November right before Christmas and see what happens. I also have listed cards that other sellers were getting more bidders than mine I do not understand this either. Have a great day. Happy selling:)

I have noticed that even if I list my cards at auction in two catagories (or more), then type in EXACTLY the same title as my product listing in the ebay search icon, I usually don't see my listing there. This is strange, but I have a feeling that there is a correlation between what sellers SPEND to list their items and whether sellers who list ALOT of products and have BIG feedback numbers, (and/or ebay stores) get the maximized multiple listings for their item(s). This seems like a bit of an unfair advantage to beginning ebayers. It is not yet clear to me if this is true, and I'm not advocating that there is purposeful manipulation of the ebay auction style system. However, I've found that BIG TIME sellers are consistently outselling me on items of almost identical condition and/or basic market value. The fact that I do not offer PayPal is certainly an issue with attracting buyers. I realize this to a point, but I've bought and sold products and received feedback encouraging me as a MONEY ORDER ONLY buyer and seller - so I dunno...maybe I just need a higher feedback rating with more sales and experience. I just wish that my product listing would reach a larger audience based simply on the "wordage" of my listing, and be listed everywhere that those keywords can be found - even remotely, to maximize exposure.
