TradeForProfit - E-Bay

TradeForProfit - E-Bay: "Why not a 10 day auction? Well you can do that if you want it all depends again on what
you are selling.
Almost 95% of ebay's bidders just click the ending soon or going going gone button to
purchase what they want NOW. They do not want to wait! So what we do is run the 3 day auction simply because we will have the advantage over the other sellers who are selling the same item that we have and ours ends sooner and this will end on a Sunday Night which is ebay's biggest nights for bidders! If a bidder finds our auction ending in 1 day and the other seller's auction ending in 7 days
who is he going to bid from? If he wants it bad enough and fast we win!
Thurs.‐Sun doesn't get any better on ebay. People are home from work and are surfing the
ebay for goods. A 3 day auction in our opinion pulls in more bids!"

TradeForProfit - E-Bay: "To summarize, select your market based on present customer trends and time of year- known trends can be found on the internet with a bit of research. Diet pills and products sell well in the months after Christmas, travel accessories sellcoming up to summer, jackets and leather wear are favourites coming up to winter- trends are different in each part of the world but basically based on common sense! After you know the market you want to join simple find a wholesellor that can provide your needs and work out your profit margin- remember to take E-Bay fees into account.

Next choose when to start the auction, and when to end it. We feel the best time to post your auction would be on a Thursday Afternoon around 5:00 cst. When you post your auction up on ebay it will take them about 2‐3 hours to run the auction live on their site. You do not simply click the button and BOOM! it's up that is farthest from the truth. You have to wait unless of course you would like to PAY ebay another fee to get your auction up at a specific time! Why do that? Just wait and keep your money or you are going to have to add more money to the cost of your item to make up the difference. So we post our auctions at 5:00 on Thursday and we run a 3 day auction! YES a 3 day auction."
