Hi all,
I've have lots of zips to sell, 1058 to be exact. I've counted them and sorted into colour groups. Can anyone advise on the best way to photograph and list them? I'm relatively new to ebay and need a bit of help! My listings so far have been ok to think about, but really struggling with this! Thank you in advance

What is a zip?

zipper? if so, I would probably not sell by color.......how many people need 20 pink zippers? I assume different sizes also?

Zipper
I was thinking Zip Ties.
lingo in the UK is always interesting to me.

Yes zippers. And yes many different sizes. Probably do a job lot for all of them. Thanks

Try doing different size lots. I can see home DIY hobbiest buying a few 100 at a time of various colors, sizes, styles. Maybe list some lots as just the same color, like black. Obviously the entire lot of over 1000 slims down the market, so by listing various smaller lots, you might open it up to more buyers

Thank-you. I assumed it was drug paraphernalia or another thing young people might be into. Zipper is not that long of a word that it needs to shortened.

I've got 9 young grand kids and I've noticed it's hard for them to use complete words.
I never know what they are talking about most of the time.

Don't think a job lot would be the way to go, but, hey, it's worth a try.
Stranger things have happened on eBay than someone buying over a thousand zippers of varying colors and sizes.
