Ebay is looking Hot this month for me

[ironlord1963]

     Wow, I'm getting a bit excited about this months e-bay run.  With the new posting prices it cost me way less to post my 150 items.  And to boot It has only been a few days, I already have 9 item that are early sales and one item with a challange bid.  I think this will be a good run.  Just found out I had another sale and had to tell the world, at least all you wonderful folks here on the forum.  I am really watching a Mckee pitcher I have posted, that had a bidder within a few minutes of posting and several watcher.  Started it a $9.99 which is really cheap but I found it for $5.00.  Anyway just wanted to convey my excitment.

Best of luck to you this time Ironlord.

Sounds like your having some fun with it this time around.
Keep up the good work and let us know how you end up.
I would think your photography skills will be a great asset for this type of thing.Really putting all your talents to use.

If there are any secrets to success with selling on eBay I sure haven't found them yet.
I listed an item starting at $24.99 and ran it 3 different times for 7 days with 0 bids,then the 4th time it ends up getting bid up over $80.
Still haven't figured that one out yet.

Couple of new additional tidbits of info from this run.

First a while back in another thread someone mentioned that This time of the year was best for posting because of the Income tax return.  I think it was KC but don't quote me on that.  I thought Just before christmas was.  Well I think you are right (whom ever that was).  I have noticed, when looking at the buyer feedback ( I so this for Information )  I noticed that every one that is buying a item has bought a few items in the last few days or weeks.  It also appears I have got better Watcher and Looker points.  Just a observation I noticed.

The other thing is what is it with Monday vs. Wed.  Looked back at my records and Monday seems to get lots of hits and bids, Wed. is just the other way around.  This is over the last 4 times I have done this.  Then it really picks up again into the weekend, kinda of wave.  Any ideals ?  Could Monday be the best day to end?  Hmmm maybe I try that next.
