5 Easy Steps to Posting
Your First eBay Auction
It's surprisingly simple to get started posting your
very first auction on eBay. Here's what you need to
do.
Step 1: Open an eBay seller's
account.
If you've bought things on eBay, then you already
have an account - just log in with it and click 'Sell'
in the toolbar at the top of the page, then click
'Create a seller's account'. If you've never used
eBay before, then you'll need to open an account
first using the 'register' link underneath the toolbar,
and then click 'Sell' and 'Create a seller's account'.
The eBay site will then guide you through the
process. For security, this may involve giving card
details and bank information.
Step 2: Decide what to sell.
For your first little experiment with eBay, it doesn't
really matter what you sell. Take a look around the
room you're in - I'm sure there's something in there
that you're not all that attached to and could put in
the post. Small books and CDs are ideal first items.
Step 3: Submit your item.
Click 'Sell', and you're on your way to listing your
item.
The first thing you need to do is choose a category
- it's best to just type in what the item is and let
eBay choose for you. Next, write a title and
description. Include key words you think people
will search for in the title box, and all the
information you have about the item in the
description box.
Now set a starting price. $0.01 is the best starting
price, as it draws people in to bid who otherwise
wouldn't, and items will almost never finish at such
a low price. The next thing to set is the duration of
the auction: 3, 5, 7 or 10 days. This is up to you:
longer sales will usually get more bids, but will
also seem to drag on forever. If you've taken a
picture, add it now - items with pictures always
sell for more. Finally, tick the payment methods
you will accept (just PayPal is best for now), and
where you will post to (limit yourself to your own
country to begin with). Submit and you're done!
Step 4: Wait for it to sell.
This is just a matter of sitting back and letting eBay
do its thing - buyers will find your item and leave
bids on it. Some bidders might email you with
questions about the item, and you should do your
best to answer these questions as quickly as you
can. ** Remember that if your item doesn't sell then
you can list it again for free. **
Step 5: Collect payment and post
it.
eBay will sent your buyer emails guiding them
through the process of sending you payment for the
item. Make sure you have the money before you
send anything.
Once you've got the payment, all you need to do is
pack the item for posting (make sure to use some
bubble wrap), take the buyer's address from the
confirmation email eBay sent you, and write it on
the parcel. Put some stamps on, post it, and you're
done!
