Improvement
So I started off selling a few months back. I wanted to start trying to make it a full time thing. Posting almost every day around 10 items. Look at my store. Tell me how to improve.
Recently started doing 50% off on high cost items and some low cost items as well.
Basics everything's on sale.
Photos are not to bad.
I have 100% positive feedback
I got around 3 to 1 sales a day but around a month ago, now am lucky to get 3 sales a week. What am I doing wrong. Pick at my store. Rip me apart and tell me how to improve.

·10 months agoFirst thing listed when clicking your items; a 2002 Nascar. You are more than double what someone else is as is shown RIGHT ON your listing (and ebay thing, nothing you can do).
You need to be lower or in the ballpark of this person. Your shipping is also quite a bit more.
Also, 50% off just tells me that you were listing it for twice what it was/is worth.
You don't need sales. You need to be the lowest for exact same item that is shown on your listings.
So, look at every one of your listings, NOT signed in, to see what is shown and lower price to beat it.
After all, why would I buy yours for $45 plus $15 shipping ($60 plus) when I can buy same used thing for $25 shipped from another seller?

·10 months agoYou have too little listed to rip you apart.
You are not even close to the number of items for sale which are required to make it a full time thing.
Listing 10 items a day will not get you there for years if you only have one of each item to sell.
We all differ in how much we must make to be worth the effort of listing an item on Ebay, but many of us would say that you are willing to sell items which do not reflect a sale which returns an adequate profit on your time expended. Or a likelihood of selling in a finite period of time.
Unless you can source and afford to invest much more in inventory, this will not become a full time thing.
What I see in your inventory is what you have been able to buy on the cheap and think you can make something on, rather than what you think you can sell at a decent price and are able to make a worthwhile profit on.

OP10 months agoYour right. Im still extremely new to ebay but Let's say hypothetically I had an infinite supply of books and clothing children toys that I got from a dead family member who was a horder. I mean you could not see the floor threw all the random junk. I dont want to throw it all out as it seems wasteful. Considering they are relatively cheaper items. But there is a mountains worth of items, I mean a few are pricey but not much then how much would generally need to be posted daily to go back to 1 to 3 sales a day. And why would it just magically stop.
Please keep in mind I know im new. And i know this is probably a stupid question, And I know the items could be better but the clothing books and toys are new. Even tho they are cheap.
