I've picked up a few tricks along the way and I'm delighted with how things are going so far.
What I Like
I love the negotiation process and dealing with the customers - or potential customers - and I find that really enjoyable. Speaking with people from around the world is cool, especially people who share similar interests to me.
Speaking about games, movies, and Halo Mega stuff is great. Having some other bits and pieces to sell would also be cool, but for now, I have my hands full with what I've got.
I have about 150 other games to go up, as well as the lego sets.
Bundling stuff up and saving people money on shipping also fills me with a lot of joy, because I hate the cost of everything as much as everyone else and to be able to help people out is also great.
Reading heart-felt feedback is also great and it fills me with a ton of joy.
Saving Money
Today I got a sale and then the guy mentioned about buying another item but wanted me to refund him the postage of it.
Now, eBay takes fees based on the price of the item, including the shipping cost.
So, if he bought two separate items I'd pay fees on both, and have to refund the initial cost of one of the shipping, so instead I raise the price of one item to include the price of the other and that way, they're able to pay one shipping and the price of both items.
What it kind of does though is inflate the price of that particular item they bought, especially since it seems as though that alone sold for that much, but that's how it goes.
