Tm Customs Posted August 10, 2004 Report Share Posted August 10, 2004 It really depends on what you selling, somethings like plastics are next to impossible to sell on ebay for a fair mark up. Al and Creek Critters basicley have that tied up hand made cranks and spinnerbaits don't appricate either. I find that you will end up selling items for half of what you think you will when you start. When buying common items bid low if your not in a hurry to get it, there is always more to be had. CAUTION DO NOT ANSER EMAILS ASKING YOU FOR PERSONAL INFO THEY WILL STEAL IT AND SCREW YOU BIG TIME I KNOW BY PERSONAL EXPERENCE. All in all ebay is a good way to advertize custom products and hook buyers with a link to your site. I usally sell 50+ items a week but my account is currently down becuase of hackers Whatever you do if you want to make money never search for anything you will always end-up spending your profits, at least I do oh well.

alsworms Posted August 11, 2004 Report Share Posted August 11, 2004 I don't do well on Ebay anymore. Used to.....but those days are long gone. However, it's still a good place to advertise and draw customers to your website. Other than that, ebay.......uhhhh.......sucks for selling plastics. Some guys do okay, but those are the dudes who sell 30 baits for a buck. I can't make anything selling my stuff for that. Just take it with a grain of salt. Use ebay for advertisement and don't expect much else. Chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tm Customs Posted August 11, 2004 Report Share Posted August 11, 2004 Yeah Al even for you I know those triple pours take time it's sad to see them go for .05ea and then have people ask about custom colors at the same price Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
