Ebay selling -  help please.

Have loads of things to sell on Ebay, as we have just moved - but find am just not confident or skilled enough for Ebay.  Could anyone teach me, (am happy to pay). Alternatively if anyone wants to have a go with me, two heads might be better than one!(PS I once did a course - but was pretty useless).Tel 0208 993 2580

I have never tried selling anything on EBay but a friend tells me they do charge a fee.There is another website called Preloved, I think it is free to sell goods on here, I did join and they send me emails etc but as yet I haven't been brave enough to try it!  Good luck and maybe you can come back and let us know the outcome?

Hi Suzanne, eBay fees are around 12.5-15%% then you have to add 2% if the item is paid for by Paypal (which most buyers do as it adds an extra layer of buyer protection). There is an agency that sells for you for a commission on eBay (http://www.sellforyou.co.uk/fees.php). I've also sold for many local clients who don't have the time or inclination to deal with creating listings, answering questions and the postage and packing. Do feel free to email me if you'd like any more advice.
