Right im only doing this as I feel this guy should leaarn something, and yeh hes a member of this form who has now been suspended 2 times form ebay on 2 acconts, not because hes dodgey but he keeps doing things wrong. (if anyone guesses the name of the guy I will send them a hobnob for free in the post).


Anyway heres the link

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBay[....]pagename=STRK%3AMESE%3AIT&rd=1

Now heres whats wrong with it. TO THE SELLER TAKE SOME F-ING NOTS ive said this before far to many times

1: Pictures - they are not flatering and do not show off the phone, at all, you want 280 a pop then you shoudl bloody well make them look like they are worth it!

1.1 - if your selling 2 of a item never use 2 pics with mutiple items in even if you state this in your description it gices the wrong idea.


2: Postage - now from my previous experiences your shipping is shite and your more the doubeling postage prices, if you want to attract a larger target audience you dont screw them over on something like this, the cheaper the postage is the more bids you will get. Its going to cost you about 6 quid to send that phone and we both know your going to recycle packaging materials. I myself would be charging £7 and send in new packaging with preprintered lables for everything.

3: cut out the crap -

"HI I HAVE A BRAND NEW BOXED NOKIA 8800 FOR SALE! I HAVE 2 OF THESE SO PLEASE CHECK MY OTHER AUCTIONS. THESE ARE IN THE UK AND CAN BE SENT OUT AS SOON AS PAYMENT IS MADE WITH SHORT DELIVERY TIMES.

THE PHONE IS BOXED WITH EVERYTHING INCLUDING THE DESKTOP CHARGER WITH THE BLUE NEON GLOW UNDERNEATH IT.

**************

4: you sound like an idiot firstly you say you are new to ebay, then you say you can spot scammers froma a mile away, do I need to explain how that works?

5: you wont ship to nigeria - nigerian bidders are not a rela problem as international bidders should be stopped and they normally email you first anyway as they need your cooperation to screw you over.

6: give some referals or something your selling what many people consider high end phones and you have 0fb, give them some confidence and try not to sound like such a tit.

7: if your new and selling mutiples and say you are selling mutiples then atleast have another for sale, this really contradicts the pictures and what you initally said

Now shape up a bit im pissed off and annoyed that you constantly dont work on thses things, if you want higher prices put some bloody effort in

Enjoy

Look man, this is how you do it

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBay[....]category=73837&item=9715732950

Simple, 1 pic, short and detailed. No other info needed. im sure they know what they are buying. charging high postage for a in demand item is the best option. you pay less fee's and price dont vary. proof is shown in my later auctions. changed from £9.99 to £14.99 with no real change in price.

actually I believe in rock bottom prices for shipping, I have found on items it has seriusly increased prices although day 7 instead of 10 10-15 wouldnt have to much impact as its already to high, if you lowered shipping to about 7 you could get prices of 225-230

Your listing is way better then solids but its actually missing detail and your pics are again shockingkly bad, you want 2 pics. One of a ipod box upclose and near and another of the 8 boxes all lighed up with a printed name running fown the sides?

@ solid - so u f**king should be

A KK and lamount since u guessed the answeres so quick u can both have a chocolate one, pm me ur addresses and il send them right out in a jiffy bag
