Message 6 of I rescued my dog and he rescued me!! Message 7 of Message 8 of Message 9 of Ok how does that apply here? Message 10 of You just answered your own question.
The bidding starts at the starting price and when it ends then you sell the item. It isn't possible for anyone to bid less than the starting price so it acts as a reserve.
If you actually set a reserve price which will be higher than the starting price the bidders will be able to bid less than the reserve but won't be able to buy until the reserve is reached. I've never been able to see the point of having a reserve on eBay. But if you're selling a car it's much better to use a classified ad. Just like advertising in your local paper.
I don't know why people block out number plates - perhaps someone can explain - as we all see number plates every day on the streets without it causing a problem. And please do not be tempted to put "Advertised elsewhere so can be withdrawn at any time" on your listings. Turn on suggestions. The street value is the common, discounted price for the item in general commerce.
To get an idea of this price, go to a site like www. I like Froogle in particular because it lists website's product pricing right along with the pricing on many eBay stores, so you can get a good idea of the going value of your item.
After you know the going street value of the item, you can choose a price that's somewhat less--this way, bidders who've done their homework think they're getting a deal on your item. You can also use the information you gleaned from your street value price research to set your "Buy It Now" BIN price.
This is the price you set so a prospective buyer can purchase your item immediately if they're so inclined. I usually make the BIN price a few dollars more than the discount price--this strategy works very well for my items. Doing your research--even before purchasing an item to sell on eBay--is an ideal business practice.
Because it's the time you spend on your business that can move you closer to eBay success. Marsha Collier is a Los Angeles-based author, radio personality and educator specializing in technology and selling online.
