eBay's own "Learning Center" is a good place to start. Their quick reference for selling will get you up and running with the process of posting auctions.

Open an eBay Store

Using Photos from EZdropshipper in your auctions:
Please use "eBay Picture Services" to store the photos used with your auction (listed as "Basic eBay Picture").
Do not click the "your own web hosting" tab, and try to enter a picture location that begins with "http://www.ezdropshipper.com".
If you do, your picture won't appear; we have blocked eBay webpages from fetching pictures from our webserver.

Please note that all images and description usage are subject to the restriction and rules as dictated by the individual intellectual property owners (product owners).

Here's some tips:

1. Research what you intend to sell. For pricing, check online stores, and completed auctions on eBay. You also might want to check eBay to see how many auctions there were that _didn't_ go to completion; if many items went unsold, pick another item to sell.

2. To avoid paying larger fees to eBay and entice buyers to bid, use a low starting bid. Weigh this against how popular the item is; if you don't expect much traffic, set the starting bid closer to your minimum desired price.

3. Avoid using reserves, and instead set your starting bid to your minimum price. Reserves discourage bidding

4. Set up your auctions to end on Sunday evening around 9pm EST. Historically, auctions ending near this time have done better.

5. Don't offer free shipping unless many other sellers in your category do so. It usually doesn't attract more bidders. Just set a reasonable shipping price.

6. Shipping Charge - Be sure to allow for eBay and paypal fees you'll be charged, the cost of boxes and packing materials in the shipping cost. The way to avoid contention over shipping charges is to fully state what's covered up front, before they bid.

7. Delivery confirmation is only a good idea for items costing over a certain amount. You could offer it as an option customers could pay for themselves if they desire it.

8. Return Policies - there's a good deal of debate on this issue. Some sellers treat eBay as a "yard sale", in that once you've bought it, there are no returns. Some sellers allow returns only for manufacturers defects. Some sellers allow returns for any reason. The key here is to decide on a policy and stick to it. Be aware that no matter what you decide, someone will always disagree (it's a big world).

9. Save yourself heartache and trouble later on; check out your bidders, and dump any with negative feedback. Don't allow personal checks, insist on Paypal, or if you can accept them, credit cards. There's more trouble over bounced checks in commerce than with any other one thing.

10. Be willing to answer questions as quickly as possible. The more forthcoming you are with answers (even to "stupid" questions) the more likely you'll close the sale.
