Want to tap into the huge and profitable market for toys on Ebay? Here is some advice from an eBay toy pro…
By Jenny Hunt
When selling toys on Ebay you sometimes get a chance to grab quite a few of the same hot item at once. One of the biggest mistakes you could make is to list more than one of them at a time. Let’s look at an example.
If you scored on 5 TMX Elmo’s, don’t list them all at the same time (unless you are running a BIN auction). You will spread your bidders out between your listings and your ending price won’t be as high. Less availability means higher profits. Instead, list them one at a time, and relist as soon as an auction closes. I love getting my hands on several identical items. Since I only have to take the picture once and create the listing once, it saves me lots of time when I can hit that “relist� button. That of course means that I can go out there and shop some more.
Find out what the hot sellers are while there are still quite a few of them on the shelves with the Holiday Toy Guide.
