    I have found that donatiting to charity instead of promoting the listing works well for me. It is a 10% minimum, but it bumps your listing up in the search. In my eyes, I would rather the "promotion fee" go to a charity & help someone. It's also a great way to document charitable donations for your taxes.

    Hi from Queensland Australia. Ryan your straight forward way of explaining is really great, just would like to say thank you for that. Our eBay system is a tad different, but the listing page is close enough. However, the postage, this shirt would cost $14.95 AUD to ship in country, (fun), which is about $10 USD. Looking forward to learning more from your videos, and judging from the comments below, I definitely will. Yours is only the 6th channel I have subscribed to, so I'll definitely check out previous videos. This weekend, my to do list - 1. mow lawn, 2. Make GIANT HANGER :-)

      @RALLIROOTS  Месяц назад +1

      That’s awesome :) glad you do well. I would maybe be a bit open minded to change though, especially on the no returns. You’re absolutely hurting your chances of making a sale without a return policy in place. But yes, lots of different ways to win, I’m just giving you the way that’s made us millions of dollars on eBay, do with it as you want.

      I agree but I have to say this. People are buying new and USED stuff. They are not buying it from a department store. When you go to garage sales to buy stuff to resale. You don't say hey I would buy that if your garage was cleaner and your driveway was power washed.

    Thank you for this. I’ve been been selling since January. Still takes me forever to list and keep track of my inventory. I have hesitation on cloths since it’s such a pain to do the pic you and measurements. I love this idea with the little sign. I’m a crafter so I can certainly do something up like this. Plus my walls in the basement (where I work my busy) are off white. Perfect for clothing pics! Look forward to the next one!

    I do sleeve length as well .. I show a tape measure in the pics . Your way is nicer just not sure I have room to store more things. I also use the floor to get flat lay measurements because again no space plus I can take photos of the item with the ruler in the pics as well. I like the over sized hanger trick . I use a dress form I got for free off craigslist from an retiring seamstress

    Such a great video! Thank you for starting this beginner's series. I've been really struggling. Much like you, I prefer to list on the eBay website. Again, like you, I use copy /paste from Word for my item description (modifying where necessary). Everything looks fantastic in preview, etc. on the WEBSITE. However, when I look at the same listing on the APP, the description format is either all messed up or you have to click another link to get to the "full description". And as you said, no mobile app user is going to do that. I've listed 15 items on the website so far and manually fixed each of the APP listings. This can't be right! I'm not having fun and I could get a part time job that pays more for my time than this (as someone once said). Would you happen to have any idea of what I might be doing wrong? TIA for any guidance you can give.

Then I’ll go back to my iPhone and using the eBay app I’ll go to the drafts (where all the listing I just created on my laptop will be located) and add and edit the photos. Then just click “list”.

    Hey Rya. Great video tutorial. I have a question or 2 about the measurement frame you use. Do you have a different one for like shirts, pants, dresses, etc? Also, the blocks your beautiful wife found, do you have more than one set, in case for some reason, an item had the same measurement for example, chest and length? Also, may I ask where the wife found those number blocks? Thanks Ryan.
