Has anyone sold on eBay lately? - Designer Handbag & Purse Chat.. The Bag Forum

Were the fees higher? Also...did the transaction go well?

I am kind of scared to sell on there again!!

I sold a bag on there recently. The fees were ridiculously high, although the item sold alot faster and for much more than expected. So I guess that's the balance. I was getting like zero search results for 2-3 weeks on bonanzle.

And I was lucky. The transaction went very well.. I described everything in detail, posted lots of pics, mentioned all sales are final, and if they need to see any additional pictures then to feel free and ask.

^Thanks, Jennifer. I can't wait around for something to sell on Bonanzle right now...hopefully eBay will be better.

I sold a few things on there, and like Jennifer said the stuff sold for more and quicker but the fees were high.

I haven't sold anything... I only bought something. And the transaction didn't go very well. LOL! Well, I guess the transaction portion was okay but the item was damaged when it came.

^^ Aww, sorry bRs!

The last three bags I sold were on Bonanzle and they only charged $5 per transaction. The only downside is that it is new so not as much traffic there.

ZG - It's not a big deal. The item wasn't even for me. It was for the lab. I remember picking the box up off my front step and hearing a "clunk CLUNK" sound.

It was a piece of equipment that had a circuit board mounted inside a metal box. The base of the circuit board had come loose during transit and it was essentially just rolling around in there.

I have sale going on ebay too. It has been going for four days and ends tomorrow. I've never sold on ebay before. I advertised it a bit on Facebook so I've gotten quite a few bids.

I have sold a few times on ebay before and i have not had a problem with the transactions.
Although i did end up selling the items for less than what i wanted, because you have to start at a low bid rate to get any hits.

Swapping bonanzles is considered soliciting. That is something that can only be done in the TBF MP.

Can't say that I have. I do love buying on there though

I have been selling quite a few items, and the fees are not that cheap. It seems they have gone up quite a bit. I do like how its free to list 5 items every 30 days. Well its free if you don't sell it.

BUT, at least you can list those for free and if they don't sell you didn't lose anything. I wish ebay would go down on the fees. Its really starting to cost me.

Yeah, I have been buying things on ebay lately too. I love being able to get items at a much lower price.

Have you tried selling on Bonanzle? The fees are much cheaper there.
