Selling Items With Low Demand And High Value
Selling Items With Low Demand And High Value
Elaine Smith is, in my opinion, the one person with the answers to those questions about the best way to sell items with low demand and high value.
This happens frequently when you are working on selling items that are rare, such as collectibles. Collectibles almost always will have a low demand on eBay and that creates a certain risk.
The risk is that you won’t get your item in front of enough buyers in order to get the true value of your item.
Some sellers will use a reserve to overcome that risk. And that is one way to handle that. And there is nothing wrong with it.
Elaine, however, uses an eBay store for those rare items. The listing fee is reasonable — only three cents per month per item — plus the monthly store fee.
When you first look at how an eBay store is put together, you would think that there is no way that buyers would see the items. Part of that reasoning is that it used to be that it would be your job to figure out how to drive traffic to your eBay store.
But now, that’s different.
eBay has changed it so that store listings are fed to the search engines and those listings will come up in searches that are done by prospective buyers who search on eBay and find few auction results.
So, why would you want to use this?
If you have only a few items a month that you would normally sell with a reserve, then you are probably better off to continue to list your items that way — with a reserve.
However, if you have dozens of such items to sell — or as some sellers have — hundreds of this kind of item — then selling through an eBay store would make more sense for you.
