Ebay - Tips on making a great sales page?
Hi everyone,
I really want to start selling things on Ebay, more as a hobby but if I can make some money then thats even better!
I would like to sell baby clothes (as I am currently pregnant and had to finish work really early due to complications with my pregnancy). There are some really beautiful clothes on Ebay from Monsoon and Humphrey’s Corner.
I would love to make a great reputation for myself on Ebay as a seller but feel I need to be better than the competition for this to happen.
If you can give me any tips or advice on this or any other brands I can sell or even if you know of anywhere else I can buy them from, it would be very much appreciated.
P.S. I have seen that some power sellers have set ‘blurbs’ at the bottom of their items with colours and pictures and logos etc. How would I do this as I don’t seem to have the option when setting up listings normally.
Thank you,
Amy.

Selling on eBay is a difficult task and requires a lot of time, dedication and patience; however for most people it’s fun and take it in a positive way.
If you would like to sell baby clothes, you need to start from scratch, that means that you have to offer good prices, set your listing with gallery, pictures, a nice description, shipping costs, shipping insurance, and the types of payments that you are willing to accept.
Try to always look for the competition rank, offer competitive prices against the ones that are selling the same clothes, offer deals, combined shipping and be able to attract more customers with these types of things.
Now, in order to become a PowerSeller, you have to meet some specific requirements that eBay requires, some of them are like list a particular number of items in a short period of time, have a good reputation (feedback) and not be fraudalent with eBay fees and invoices.
Most Powersellers are stores but some of them are not in order to avoid eBay’s store fees, but once you are a powerseller you can open your store and decorate your own page with the colors, blurbs, design and the info that you want to add. There might be a way of setting up your listings with this stuff too without being a powerseller but you will have to look it up on ebay.
Try to list some of your baby clothes today and see how it goes, always, but always have a postive attitude and positive thoughts in this; this is the key to success!
