You need to list every day.

 

6 items are going to get buried on ebay.

 

When you list daily, those of us who search new, if we see something we like we also check your other items as well.

How can someone help you without seeing or knowing what you are selling?

 

I regularly review my items, especially when I see less sales. I search for similar items, look at those that have sold, the price, etc. There is no magic solution to doing research. 

 

With ebay's shift to catalog based sales, seller's with the lowest price are more likely to get their item in front of the buyer. If your's isn't lowest, and the lowest priced item meets their need, they will never look any further.

OP - it might help if you took a little clearer photos and if they are dark - use the photo enhancement tools under the oictures when you upload them to lighten and get more definition for your items. Also the fish measuring spoons - you can clearly see made in china on them and most folks associate items made in China as more recent. If there is a manufacturer name on them like Crosby and Taylor - that will give buyers a better idea of the quality of the item because someone has brand new fish measuring spoons listed now for $10 plus shipping. 

 

Also you really have to write more of a description. Glasses aren't real good sellers unless they are vintage like Oliver peoples or the newer designer frames. You need to put in the decription the strength, the nose bridge distance - the length of the arms ect...

Your Hood cookbook -

 

It's not very good - it's good. It will be nigh impossible to find a book that old that's in truly very good or better condition, even one that's never been used, just because of normal shelf wear.

 

More pictures! Show some pics of the inner pages. Note any stains or spots. Most old cookbooks are going to have a least few if they were actually used.

 

Work on the title - You need the year,  the edition if noted, and if it's a revised edition.

 

Your description - You need to actually describe the book. How worn are the covers? Are there stains? Are there dog eared pages? Is there writing on any pages? Are there any torn pages? How is the spine?

 

I sold that same book back in March for $24. I had 12 pictures and a full description including all flaws.

1. It seems you are not offering international shipping to any countries on your listings so you are counting entirely on the USA market.

Shipping:
May not ship to Australia
 
2. I only see 6 listings or is there more than  that?
 
3. Your titles could be longer and more interesting.
 
4. Find a niche category that is going to sell better
 
5. Have up 250 listings and open an eBay shop, make sure all the listings have better titles and more pics. Make sure you pick items with a proven sales history
