When selling on eBay, if you’re selling an item at a fixed price, you should always have the option available for buyers to be able to submit an offer, but they are willing to pay and that you’re willing to accept and you should always allow counter offers to engage in Negotiations. You as a seller always have the control to either except, counter offer, or declined the offer entirely.
Here are five ways to attract buyers to your listing
Pictures sell: In today’s era where almost every single person has access to some type of digital camera whether it is on their phone or an actual digital camera that they can upload pictures to the computer, all listings should always have photos of the actual item they will be receiving. Listings should also have a lot of photos and try to point out any defects that buyer might say something about.
Remember buyers can’t physically examine the item. Therefore, they are relying on you to be honest and truthful, generally speaking, if you were honest and truthful, and you disclose any defects are a buyer isn’t going to make any issue out of it however, if you choose to intentionally cover up or not disclose by being honest, it could come back to get you.
Honesty and integrity: It is important to always be honest and truthful, and upfront about anything you are selling especially if a buyer specifically ask you a question. If a buyer asks you a question, and you don’t know the answer to it don’t try to answer the question as you could give them wrong information be upfront about and say honestly I don’t know.
When you write your description about the item that you’re selling, if there is any defects, such as dents, scratches, including anything that is from normal, wear and tear, it should be described, and you should try to make sure that the buyer is clearly aware of these defects. Sure to some buyers. This may be a turn off however, other buyers may be grateful.
