I have a bid on one of my auctions on Ebay!! After a long hard year of just a handful of sells here and there (I think like 5 in all) I had a sell of some ceramic veggie wall hangings last week and this week the dollhouse stove has a bid!! It is not much but I'll take it!!! LOL
I hope this trend continues for me I need Christmas money!!! I am hoping that my letters from Santa will start to get orders also. I usually have atleast 15 orders by now for the letters not a single one yet.

Do you have your items listed under a lot of different categories? My husband buys and sells motorcycles and parts on Ebay and his sales increased after someone messaged him and told him that he needed to increase the categories his items could be seen in. Congrats on your sales and I hope you have much success with Ebay.

Since the Christmas shopping season is about to start and more people than ever will be looking for unusual items on Ebay it might be worth the investment to increase the number of categories your items can be found in, in order to increase the chances that they are seen. Good luck!

Wow, that's great that you have some sales. You need Christmas money, and other people need Christmas gifts. I think it's a natural match, Please keep up the good work, and please keep us all posted as to how your business is doing. I think it's wonderful that you are selling again.

I am so happy happy happy. It was a total surprise...I like those kind of surprises!! I have been working hard all day and last night with my daughter helping me organize the studio and all the 200+ molds. Now I have them all in catagories so I can catalog them and find them easier and know what I have.

I bet you are having sells right now because Christmas is coming up soon. I know alot of people who look for presents via ebay. I hope you are able to make all your sales and get a good price for what you are selling. May I ask what do you usually sell? Is it the same thing? Or all kinds of things?

I have wondered how selling on EBay is going. I have never successfully set up and done it. I have some things that I think might sell, if the economy is good. I just have never tried, and it does not seem logical right now to do so.
