What I like to do is, say for example I had 10 items to list, rather than list them all in one day I'll list maybe 2-3 a day and I feel like this helps with the algorithm as it generates activity on uour account. If obviously your time is limited then you can create drafts or choose a time for your listings to go live.
Some of these tips i'd say it depends what works for you. I don't do free shipping because i sometimes do big markdowns like 50% and its easier for the postage to cover the cost of postage, I also get less returns when you charge for postage.Also i don't do offers the way you suggest, i pitch my prices quite carefully so i'm the best price for the quality of what i'm selling. When its quiet ( i haven't made many sales) i will have a sale and discount items that haven't sold for a while by 10%-50% maybe starting at 10%. I don't want to be swamped with sales. One tip to add to your list is the "Job Lot" if you have items that haven't sold maybe its the wrong time of year, they aren't a thing anymore, or you made a mistake in buying them. Rather than deeply discounting them or take they to the charity shop combine them and sell them as a job lot. This works for me as the postage for the job lot will be the same for me as the single item so my job lots are good value for money but i don't have the hassles of having to pack lots of items that the profit on each item is low.
Evri is OK,until you ship to Northern Ireland or islands in Scotland then the postage with evri doubles,as for the post office my local post office inside a shop is open on Sundays. Yodel I don't use I have had too many problems with them.
Great video mate! Quick questions - How prominent is it on eBay that you accept returns? Has switching on the 30 days returns increased the number of returns you received mate?
Thank you for responding. No need to apologise at all. That’s interesting. I’ll try it. Do you suggest accepting return for 14/30/60 days? Do you accept returns for internationally as well? Does the buyer pay for the return postage?
My biggest hurdle is finding consistently good stock that is going to make me my ten pound profit target per item. Because I'm transitioning into part time i need to constantly get stock. I focus on 6 niches but don't know if it's worth focusing on just one area.
Great video jack I started selling on eBay this week. Regarding sending out offers do you send them as soon as you see you have a watcher? I’ve been offering roughly 10%. How do you approach this? Am I giving away money here? Should I wait and let them make first move? Thanks
Hello my advice is to take profit where you can. Ofc if the item is worth a lot hold out for the price you are looking for. A lot of the time I actually offer discounts up to 20%. Way I look it is. I rather sell 10 items for 20% cheaper than one item for the full price
How you saying 3000 plus per month wheh you havent ckeared that. I like your channel but you have to walk the walk, not talk the talk. I checked your ebay which says only 260 items sold so indoubt 3k +. Not being a hater but just dont turn into these clickbait resellers.
Hello mate I appreciate your comment I really do. But I base my channel on facts! I try and avoid all the BS like other channels. I haven’t been doing it long but currently the last two months have been 3k plus months.
@@JackFlipsEbay ah ok bud if that's the case I'll delete my comment as don't wanna cause negativity. Glad you addressed it. Keep doing what you are doing.
Leave as many comments as you can! Pushes the video out to more people who want to learn a good side hustle 👌🏽

Yes I didn’t actually mention that! Good point. Listing every other day also helps the eBay algorithm 👍🏽

Great video, very helpful thank you.
Thanks for the comment 👌🏽👌🏽
Great advice jack
Thanks Simon. Hope it helped
Sitting at 99.2% feedback
Wish it was 100% unfortunately someone left me a bad review about something which was out of my control
@JackFlipsEbay Did you try contacting ebay? They can remove unwarranted bad feedback.
Very helpful, thank you.
Glad it was helpful!
Thank you, very helpful.😃
You're welcome! Glad I could help

I believe all the shops have there pros and cons. I solely use : EVRI & Yodel as it’s the most convenient for me
Great video mate! Quick questions - How prominent is it on eBay that you accept returns? Has switching on the 30 days returns increased the number of returns you received mate?
Sorry for the late response. I find that switching the 30 day returns on hasn’t really affected return rate tbf

Yes I agree. Trying to find items like that is difficult. I always think though even if it’s a small profit it’s worth picking it up 👍🏽👍🏽
Also I focus on many different niches I don’t restrict myself
@Cadey_Nation More niches = more consistent sourcing.
