Please help me figure out how to list my boxes

I have a habit of buying boxes at goodwill that look nice and then adding latches and putting corkboard down so they can be used as dice boxes for dungeons and dragons to hold the dice and then to roll the dice in.  this keeps the dice from rolling off the table and if the player uses metal dice it keeps the dice from denting the table.  in my local area i have given out about 50 or so of these boxes to people i play with and they have been really popular.  unfortunately everyone around here has them and i still keep buying and making them because i enjoy doing it.  Now I am starting to get out of hand in terms of space at my home and i need to find a way to get them out before they decide to do a hoarders episode on me.  so i thought perhaps this would be a good thing to try to sell on ebay.  i've sold like one maybe two things in the past but nothing like this.  I don't have any idea what to select or put in the listing.  these boxes were certainly used but i have modified them into a new product so do i list them as new or used and what brand it is asking for i don't have a brand that type of thing any advice on what to do would be greatly appreciated

Start off with some reading of the rules.  While we can help guide you here, you have some homework you need to do first.

Come on back after you have time to review these closely and ask whatever you need to ask.

I'm having a hard time understanding exactly what your offering, but that can just be my own ignorance.

What you should do is try searching for such items on ebay and see how they are described, price they are asking, and which pictures are clear as apposed to which are not... learn from there.

In addition if you hit the "sold items" box on the side of your search results, you'll get an idea for how much they are selling.
Good luck!

Looks like people list your item as dice towers and trays. They range in price checkout the sold items to compare your item to theirs.

God forbid you become the subject of a hoarders episode. laughing

 

Unique creative custom one of a kind, hand retrofitted boxes, modified from a previously used box into a functional sturdy dice boxes for dungeons and dragons games, no two alike.

Get creative with adjectives.

 

You could make a brand symbol with a inexpensive branding iron or hot stamp and maybe this becomes a business with a following.

 

Condition Seller refurbished ? Sort of but I don't know.
