Hi All,

I am new to e-bay selling. It would be much appreciated if you could share your knowledge to do a successful listing on ebay! Thank you

What types of items will you be selling?  Where will you be selling to?

If want to learn about selling on EBAY  you should do GOOGLE search and type in EBAY SELLING SCHOOL (enrollment is free).   This will tell you everything about how EBAY works.

Good luck to you.

Somehow I'm hearing this in the best voice of a fortune teller reading his/her crystal ball! 🔮

Moisturizers... Can I sell them with their brand name?

I am planning to sell them worldwide

#1 Compare your prices to others for the best price. You will have to decide if you want to offer free shipping or charge the shipping to the buyer. Either way compare prices of sellers who have both to find your best price for your item.
If you are going to have the buyer pay shipping, make sure your listing has the actual weight and measurements so you do not undercharge. 

#2 Make sure the item can be sold on ebay. Check policies, including VERO, before you hit submit.

#3 Put in as much detail as possible. Make sure you use your own pictures of the actual item and show pictures of any imperfections it may have. Also, if there are imperfections make sure you detail them out in your description.

#4 Use the Item Specifics to put in any additional details that might be relevant for a buyer to find your listing.

#5 Do not claim anything you are unsure of in your listing. Meaning, if there are certain characteristics of the item which cannot be found on the packaging or that you know 100%, do not put it in your listing. 

Keep in mind "what would I want to see/know if I were the buyer of this item" when you are listing.

Good luck!

As long as they are not fakes from China.

You can buy moisturizers in any drug, grocery or big box store.   If you sell them you still have to ship them.   You will go broke and lose your as s.  Sell something unique to Sri Lanka.  something no one else is selling.

@anmadushanka 

Are these products that you make yourself or products that are new/factory sealed?

Have you registered as a business entity in Sri Lanka so that you are compliant with e-commerce requirements for your region?

How do I get a business registration certificate in Sri Lanka?

1. Approving your business name from the Registrar of Companies.
2. Submitting registration forms 1, 18, 19 to the ROC.
3. Submitting articles of association to the ROC.
4. Giving public notice about company incorporation.
