It’s Tuesday which means it’s time for ‘Weekly Winners.’
This is your chance to do share with other readers some of the items you sold on eBay last week and do a little bragging in the process. By contributing you will also be helping others broaden the scope of what they can be looking for when they are out on the hunt.
These don’t have to be three or four-figure, mega-buck, items. Did you sell something for $20 or $30 that you paid one or two dollars for? These are the week-to-week, bread and butter items, everyone needs. I encourage you to share them with other readers.
The guidelines remain the same as before.
- Use the comment section of each week’s Weekly Winners post to tell everyone about your winners.
- Please limit yourself to four items a week.
- I encourage you to include a link to the completed auction (if you don’t know how to do this, see below).
- Share some information about the item with everyone - what it is, where you got it, what you paid for it, what it sold for, etc. Remember, links to closed auctions disappear after a few months, so the more you share regarding price, condition, item description, etc., the more useful your information will be to others once eBay deletes the item from their database.
To insert a hyperlink to your eBay auction simply insert the following code (with your auction URL and item name) where ever you want it in the comment box.
<a href=”CUT AND PASTE THE URL TO YOUR AUCTION HERE”>INSERT DESCRIPTION OF YOUR ITEM (i.e. 53 Dr. Suess Books)</a>

Hey Gary,
Just getting back from vacation I didn’t have any items listed in the auction, but did manage to sell some items from my eBay store
The Royal Haeger TV Lamp is from a consignment contract where I get a 60% commission split!!
We had the item priced at $129 and accepted a Best Offer of $105, after fees and commissions are deducted I’ll get $40-45 bucks without taking a red cent out of my pocket!!
I truly think that for the person just getting started selling on eBay, other than selling their own personal items, the consignment selling model is super sweet, as you don’t need a bunch of $$$, and you’ll get a great education about what really sells…what more could you want?!?
Good Luck Everybody
