hello everybody here at Mylot. we put a Johnny Cash album on e-bay's website this afternoon and listed the album for sell for seven days for the online auction for that item. this Johnny Cash album that we listed on e-bay's website was a record that was from a local school around here and from where that Johnny Cash used to live. the album even has a poster that came with the album. but anyways, we just listed that album for sell today on e-bay's website, and we already have four people that are watching the item. whoo hoo! i sure hope that that album sell's for alot of money. i do not think that many copies of this album were printed either. so tell me, if you have listed an item on e-bay's website before, what has been the most watchers that you have had on one of your e-bay items? and also, what did that item happen to be? thanks for sharing and have a beautiful evening.

Cool TnWoman! I hope you get tons of money from that Johnny Cash album too! I've never listed anything on e-Bay yet personally. My dad used to be a big Johnny Cash fan years ago. He had a lot of his albums & 8-track tapes. Man, remember 8-tracks? LoL! Good luck! Jill

I put a sapphire ring on ebay a couple years ago and it got about ten watchers. When I was married my husband brought home a few antique radios and told me to sell them and keep the money. He was sweet that way. Well, one radio sold for $150 and had about 15 watchers! I hope your album sells for a lot! Let us know, will you? It's vinyl, right?

Hi, hope you will get lots bidding. I used to sell items on Ebay and solde several items, however not that I earned a lot of money, since ebay charges, paypal charges and postage charges is that I earned a lot. However I sold, children books and clothes and had wathcers too. hope you will sell it soon.

Well, some yrs. ago I was given a big CD holder full of CD's for Free. This was back when I was selling at our Local Swap Meet, and on Ebay as well. I decided to try listing and selling some of the CDS on Ebay first before the Swap Meet. One of them sold for almost $30 and I was very Happy, and had people even ask if I had any more and I really wish I would have. All I can say is that does sound like a Treasured Item you have listed on Ebay and I am wishing the Best for you on that item as well.

Good luck with the album. You shouldn't have any problem selling it and soon. I haven't listed anything on e-Bay since I don't totally understand it. I do know if you have watchers, that's a good thing. I would like to sell some crafts on e-Bay but don't know where to begin other than to sign up. How did you learn e-Bay?

I am afraid to jump into e-Bay without some assistance. Fear of the unknown, maybe. Hope the Johnny Cash album sells today.

I never have listed anything on ebay. I do have about 100 albums that I need to though. Now that I have a really good camera I may start listing them soon. I'll wait on the Johnny Cash one though making sure that yours sells. All of mine are at least 25 to 30 years old.

Oh congratulations! I posted 1 item on ebay before and I think it was nothing really that special and therefore it didn't get sold and thereafter, I know that I don't have much luck on ebay and never attempt to sell there! I wish you good luck to make a lot of money out of selling it! All the best! *winks*

Hi TnWoman! Good luck on your e-bay item and I hope it will do great! I have heard that Johnny Cash albums are collectibles and I am sure that there are really collectors/buyers who will be willing to pay as much just to have that album in their collection. I haven't sold or posted anything yet on ebay and I am really thinking to venture on that one of these days. Good luck my friend! Take care and have a great day! lovelots..faith

I love ebay. I usually buy (so much more fun), but I have sold a few things, as well. I am not sure how many people watched my items, and it's been a year or two since I've sold. (Although, I do have to get started on that again; I have a ton of junk....errr...stuff that someone else might have better use for). I did, however, make out really well with some books I had from when I was a teenager. They were historical romance novels written for young teens, I think they retailed for about $1.99 in the '80s, and someone gave me over $40 for the set. I think I had 6 of them. Of course, then I thought I would try to sell more things, and I never had as much success as I did with those books. Good luck with selling your album!

I hope your album sells good. I sell on ebay too, in fact I am a power seller. My ebay name is grammasmagic, I sold back in Dec. and on some of my items I had many watchers. Some of my items I had 100's of people who looked at the listing. That was back in Dec. with the holiday shopping. I sell a variety of things. My hot seller in Dec. was iRobot Roomba vacuums. Things have been slow the last few weeks with the economy, people are holding onto their money. What is your ebay name, I will add you as a favorite seller.

I have never sold anything on eBay, but I hae bought plenty from them. I love their site, and i've had nothing but GOOD experiences with them. Ebay is the best thing in the world for stuff like that. I hope you get a real bidding war going on over that album, and get a really HIGH winning bid!

Hi TnWoman! That's great..did you put a reserve price or just let them bid? My b/f has alot of old albums he was thinking of selling. Please keep us updated on how you do. I have sold a few things on ebay..mostly clothing lots. I think there were a 6 people watching one lot at one time. They try to "snipe" in at the last minute to get a good price.lol Hope you get a bunch of money! Take care.
