DieselRam, how are you doing this month? My dad isn't doing that great on truck parts.

Sales are slow...but I made two sales over the long weekend though. I have just one center cap listed of the parts I bought and will list the other two as each one sells. The compass readout is super nice so I may swap mine out and list my old one instead. Just to cold to do that right now.

7 watchers, almost 300 views, 6 bids now on that Seahawks hat I posted a few posts above. Up to 19.50 w/ 2.99 shipping
its amazing when I get over 50 views on an item, 100 is rare... 300 is crazy
It ends tonight-- I am excited to see what happens!

Yeah, let us know what it goes for Justin. I've got a toy lot that gets over 100 views a time and a few watchers, and it has yet to get a bid after 2 or 3 of times listing.

Literally just made my first sale of the year, eBay had not been good to me buying or selling so far in 2015 so we'll see how it goes. Got three auctions and four or five BINs listed today too.

I always seem to get lots of watchers on my auctions but often no bids. I have yet to figure out why...

Mickael, toy buyers are the worst about paying. I think it depends on what it is sometimes. Cagclub, that is great! You tied with me. :laughing7: How many do you normally sell a month? Justin, excellent job. Let us know what that hat goes for.

Thanks! I haven't sold too much in the past - I can be pretty hit or miss on actually listing my stuff. I'm hoping to do much better with that in 2015. :)

Normally if I have 5 or 6 watchers on something it will sell. I think the main problem is getting the first bid. Sometimes something won't sell, so I'll relist it, and after it gets a bid, then it will bid up. I also like BIN's better.

Well that was disappointing haha No more bids, even so, an excellent return on 25 cents
Sold 4 or 5 items and now up to 76 sales. Only listed 1 new item yesterday, but kept the streak going!

I got 1000 free listings from ebay. However, they are only to be used on new listings, not relists. Why do they do this? :BangHead:

Probably to encourage new inventory?

some turd left a really bad review I contacted ebay and they sent me a defamation form to fill out to remove the comment

Justin, I thought about that. Do you have to change anything? DieselRam, I guess that is what they are thinking. I'll probably put some new up this weekend as well. Mickael, that is interesting. Every time I have had to open a case, they never pay. Let us know how that form works out.

Alright, that nut that kept contacting me saying he received the item, and everything opened some kind of case for a tracking number or something. He said he is no longer a registered ebay user and he doesn't owe me anything. Then he asked if I spoke any English. Then right above that message was a message that he closed it and I didn't need to do anything further. :dontknow: He is a nut.

Probably off his medication and or using drugs. Do you know what city he lives in? If so I would contact that cities police dept and file a harassment complaint and escalate this above eBay.
