My Question About Ebay

I do have things to sell but all the bother about packing and stuff puts me off. I have bought on eBay but lately I have chosen amazon for my purchases.

Switzerland is a small country and there are not many people interested in buying from eBay. Sending outside Switzerland is too expensive and there is also the Custom fees to consider. So I never opened an eBay account.

When I was selling stuff a little over a year ago.. I was selling books and a lot of old china and teacups. I would pick up the china at tag sales, estate sales and even Goodwill, or Salvation army stores. and resell them. I would look the item up on my phone to see what they were selling for on ebay. pretty much determine if I could make a profit with them before the purchase.. after a while I kinda got to know which items were worth more or would sell.

I pretty much stopped selling on ebay after it got so big. Everything I tried to sell had dozens just like it selling for pennies. I don't know how anyone makes a profit, but maybe you'll have better success. Just remember that ebay and paypal both charge sellers' fees.

I haven't sold on Ebay for ages. Postage is too costly in Australia now and it seems many have stopped buying.

I sell clothes in a good condition that I no longer want or that don't fit me anymore. I sell household items and DVDs. I have sold a few coins which are rare, coins that are still in circulation but which people want to save because not many have been made.

Jewellery, clothing and fashionable items

Handcraft. Maybe it is good for selling
