Never say never again!

During the last few weeks, I have suddenly sold several items which I had originally listed during my first eBay selling year, in 2011. Just today, I sold two more. So I don't have clue one about what might be going on -- but, whatever it is, I guess...

Express Payout stuck on processing

Do Titles Determine Sell Through?

If I purchase an item with a sell through of over 100%, but put a bad title on it, it can turn that three month sell through into a six or an eight month sell through. Therefore, I have come to believe that it is all about the title and the keyword. ...

Flea market going gangbusters but eBay is deader than a dead duck.

When I do the flea market I sell neat old stuff like crazy and many times it's just as much as eBay and lesser quality. I know flea marketeers that can sell over $1,000 in less than 3 hours and most of it is rusty and worn junk. Many great items on e...
