SAVE YOURSELF SOME HASTLE

For some reason, I've noticed that some sellers don't list their full address. If you want people to mail you payment, they need to know where to send it, so rather than waiting for them to email you to ask where to send it, make sure your address is already there in your profile, this will also cut down on the number of none paying bidders!


OTHER WAYS OF GETTING PAID!

Ok not everyone trusts paypal (myself included) so we don't accept it. Some buyers may want to pay by bank transfer. DONT PANIC, they are not trying to rip you off, they don't need any more info from you, than is on any cheque you send out. All they need is you account name, your account number, and sort code, look at your cheque book, this info is on every single cheque!


DONT BE RIPPED OFF!

Ok so someone has asked to pay through some third party, and for the item to be sent to their friend/relative/company/poodle who just happen to live abroad. This is always a con! It happens ALOT on high value items like laptops. Don't even trust western union. Only accept traditional means like paypal, cheque, cash, postal order, and DIRECT bank transfers. Anything else is probably going to end badly!


BAD DAYS HAPPEN!

One day, and one morning every week is a bad day to sell! All Day Sunday for some mystery reason Ebay is full of bugs and glitches, nobody is quite sure why this happens, maybe is gods wrath for listing on a holy day, I'm not sure, but Sundays can be touchy, the best day on a weekend to sell is a Saturday.
The morning that's bad is friday, this is when Ebay gets its updates and repairs done, it generally starts on the morning and ends at about 2pm ish, sometimes earlier.


HELP IVE LOST HIS ADDRESS!

Ok this annoys the out of me, and I'm sure I'm not the only one, a seller sends an email to let me know that my item will be delayed because they have lost my address, and need to email me for it a second time round (this works when your buying too!) Where it says stuff like mark paid, and leave feedback sect there's a little arrow, click on this and a small drop down box will appear. Now select "View Payment Status". This will take you to a page that shows both yours and their address' for you to use.


POST ABROAD!!!

If you're selling light stuff like CDs, records, books, clothes, etc, you will get at least 25% more bids - and therefore more money - if you are willing to send stuff overseas. So many items that I see have 'Post to UK only' on and I can't understand why!

Obviously if you're selling a telly or a car this isn't a good idea, but for the little things it makes a big difference!

One point - if you are selling videos or DVD's and are willing to post overseas, make sure you write, in big letter s...

THIS IS A UK PAL VIDEO / DVD AND WILL NOT PLAY ON AMERICAN PLAYERS!!!

It might seem obvious to you or me but, without wanting to generalize, overseas bidders sometimes do not read the whole ad.
