Ebayers?

[Donnaj4962]

I am an ebay buyer, but not a seller.I took a look at your ad, and I think it looks GREAT! Much better than most... (I really like being able to click on individual items to view.)!!! Your descriptions of the items was very good, in my opinion.

I have never bought clothing on Ebay, but my one concern is that many expectant parents typically get these sizes of clothing at Baby showers. I don't know if that has anything to do with your not getting any bids, was just an observation.

Good luck! I hope that you get some last minute bidders and the items sell!

Lizzie, my neighbor would LOVE to see about the Beatles stuff -- he's got a sandwich shop name the Yellow Submarine and its filled with Beatles stuff. A die-hard fan!

I forgot to answer Lori's question: Yes, it has Paypal as the payment option. I want it as the only payment option unless someone emails me and asks if they can send alternative payment. I'll have to feel really good about them before I do accept other forms of payment.

The add looks great! I think I would have broken the items down into the sizes- sell all size 0-3 together, 3-6 together, etc. When I'm looking for clothes, it is normally for a specific size and not such a broad range- that could just be me though!

Do we know that Ashley is having a girl or is it still a surprise?

[Jessika]

Anytime I've listed anything on eBay I've never got any bids on any of my items Maybe the price was too high, I tried lowering it, nothing.

I originally wanted to post everything as one lot with all the same sizes but Ashley read the tags wrong (she thought the 3 mos. was 3-6, not 0-3 mos.) At that point it was already listed and we just edited the listing to be entered into a second category - so its now listed as 0-3 and 3-6. Not a big deal really, since someone might buy it before the baby is born and then the baby would wear all the clothes as they fit into it.

We have no idea what the baby is yet. Though at the doctor's today the heart rate was 136, and the nurse said it "sounds like a boy".

For about 2 months I was bidding on baby clothes and baby items for my Neice who is having a boy. But I was looking for a specific pattern & brand. It was the CARTER'S JOHN LENNON REAL LOVE series. I looked at your page really quickly but does it have the brand(s) in the description?

Good luck. I've been wanting to sell stuff on EBAY but haven't gotten around to doing it. I didn't realize you had to pay a posting fee even if nobody bidded.

Your auction looks great and the starting price is a bargain but my first instinct was wow, $9.00 shipping? I guess I just don't think that baby clothes weigh that much even if there are 17 pieces. It just sounds kind of high to me. Of course if I was the only bidder who could complain at $11.99 for all those pieces shipped.

Good luck with it. I've never sold baby clothes but I've sold plus size clothing (things I didn't like before I lost weight) and I did really well with them. When I know that I will keep the weight off I may clear out my plus size wardrobe on ebay, LOL!

[jazzcat]

Also, I just noticed on your counter at the bottom of the page that it's only 25 (well now 31 with all of us looking) so you just aren't getting many hits.

We took the box to the Post Office before we listed it. It came to $8.10 as the cheapest rate. We said $9 to include gas to get there and the boxing, etc Yeah, we were a bit surprised at the postage ourselves.

You can clear your wardrobe with me!

Goodness, I don't know why you are not getting bids - the ad looks great.... I can only think of the following:
1) Are there loads of similar items available?
2) Maybe people are put off slightly by the low feedback (unavoidable - we all have to start somewhere)
3) Maybe you will get some last-minute bids from people hoping for a bargain (time-zones allowing, that is how I normally bid)

Can you see how many people have added it to their "watch" list?

[catnapper]

There's a way to tell if someone put it on their watch list? Anyone know where I can see that? I'm SUCH A novice here!

[Killearn Kitties]

On your "My Ebay" screen you can tell the number of bids and the number of watchers in the same place. Go have a look, and let me know if you see it.

All I see is this:
Seller status: Your item has no bids. (To make changes to your listing, click the "Revise your item" link).

Are you looking at your actual listing, or have you signed into "My Ebay" from the options at the top?

Your ad looks great!
I Personally don't see why anyone would bid before the last day, that bumps up the price! I ONLY bid at the last few minutes. (Unless it's buy it now of course)
I put up a pair of brand new $150 Tony Lama boots with 5 wonderfull pictures for $80 and NO one bid, so I lowered it to $40 and still after 3 weeks NO one bid! This was the first thing my mom and I listed (share account) we did have great Ebuyer ratings, we've bought about 10 things, including a $100 saddle, payment right on time. *sigh*
