I’m a seller on eBay

I’m a seller on eBay I am trying to start a new store eBay I need to get more people to look at my things I have some nice things not all antique but they are nice could you please check it out

[ckimodog]

Very nice.  Good luck to you.

Seems to me that you should include more pictures.  So many of your items have just one picture - no close ups, no different angles.  Descriptions are way too short.

[soh.maryl]

They are not all vintage either.

Sorry, I don't collect anything but money anymore.

Research your items:   Your "Pottery duck" title is not enough to attract buyers.  Further, what you have is Mexican, a pretty little handcrafted Tonala pottery bird.  A Google search will tell  you more about Tonala pottery.  You identify something else as "Murano," but there is no label or signature shown to prove that it came from any of the glassmakers on that Venetian Island.

Use better photographs:   Use a plain backgrounds.  Do not include anything in the photo that is not part of the sale.  Your photos are cluttered, so much so that it is sometimes difficult to see the item that should be the focus, the item that is for sale.

Use every space in every title to get in as many searchable keywords as possible.  No one searches of "Lefton knickknacks." 

I did not look at all your listings, obviously, but that's what struck me from the ones I did examine.  You'll be fine.  There's a lot to learn.  Just keep at it, and take constructive criticism.

I just don't need a wooden moose at the moment.

I would suggest you "crop" your item's photo and reduce all the unused space around it.

Your item will then appear larger in the photo.

Tagging on:      For the OP

Photograph your item as if there will be no description

Describe your item as if there will be no pictures.

Slow down and take your time with each item.    Your titles seem rushed.   

"Mallard ducks"  is not enough to tell an ebay buyer what you have to offer.   Is it a decoy?   Salt and pepper shakers?   A lithograph?   A collector plate?   A Figurine?

If your mother collects Salt and pepper shakers,    and does not have any in her collection 

that are shaped like ducks,   will she find your listing?

Who made it?   When was it made?   What's it made of?   Is it vintage?    I'm 68 years old.   It needs to be older than me for me to consider it vintage.    My 21 year old daughter thinks 9/11 is ancient history.    She thinks 

my CD collection of music is "Vintage"

Are using item specifics?    eBay offers you the opportunity to have your items visible if you use item specifics.

    Item specifics work.

I might get lambasted for this but so you understand, it is not allowed to promote your site or listings on the community forums. 

I will say, there is lots of good advice on improvements in the suggestions above. Good luck with your selling.

OK I took a peek, you could use some help.

https ://www.ebay.com/itm/354269154332?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=puf_8nxhthk&sssrc=23496...

Your listing above-mentioned for example. Take more pictures of items, you get 12 free, use this.

This donkey needs some title help, nobody is going to type in what you have, this is better: Vintage Japan Anthropomorphic donkey ceramic figurine.

Show close up pictures, use of measuring tape next to it, lose the beautiful doily or anything else shown with item, it's not a good auction item should be a BIN price say around 9.99- 14.99.

     That's what I got just focusing on one item. Best to you in your new adventure!

"Photograph your item as if there will be no description Describe your item as if there will be no pictures."

Fantastic advice.  That should be an eBay mantra. 

[monroe67]

I really, really, strongly suggest you revise this title:  

"A clear face with red spots"

I sincerely doubt that anybody is going to search for that. 
At the very least, change "face" to "vase."  
Then, add the word "glass" in front of "vase".  

Your descriptions could use some work.  Add a few more descriptive words -- that actually, you know, describe that vase.  Like -- how tall is it?  What's the diameter of the top?  A few more photos would also be helpful.  

On the plus side, I do like the embroidered cloth that you put that vase on for the picture.   That was what first caught my eye = the power of the image.   Compare that photo to the photo of the ceramic/porcelain double vase, which looks like a very pretty item -- but -- showing it on top of your printer is very distracting.

just checked out "vintage pair with gold legs".  pair of what? turkeys? end tables? nobody would type that title into the search. might give us 1,000,000 listings! best of luck to you. many nice items listed.

[monroe67]

"vintage pair with gold legs"

The thing is -- it's not a pair of anything.  

It's a pear.  Of clear glass with bubbles inside.  There are no legs.  The stem and leaf are "golden."  Doubtful they are real gold or even real-gold-plated.  

The more I think about this . . . . . . .
