Liquidation Tips for Post-Holiday Selling!
|
December 2003 |
If you are considering offering post-holiday discounts or liquidating inventory, review these 5 quick tips to make your Collectibles clearance efforts more visible and successful.
Tip #1
Consider listing no-reserve auctions with a low opening price.
Tip #2
Experiment with listing liquidation items in bulk via the Collectibles Wholesale Lots category.
Tip #3
Offer free shipping in place of or in addition to your discounted merchandise. The Collectibles portal page is currently promoting items with the words "Free Ship" in the title.
Tip #4
Create a customized "Sale" or "Clearance" eBay Stores category for convenient shopping.
Tip #5
Include a "View My Clearance Items" link in your listing template. Direct this link to your customized Store category or a canned search (e.g., Use Advanced Search to create a search that returns live items associated with your seller ID with the word "sale" in the title)
If you have a suggestion for future Seller's Edge article, send an email to collectibles_newsletter@ebay.com
