My First E-bay Auctions

[Higghawker]

Well, here is my first shot at E-bay selling. I appreciate all the board members for all their insight and wisdom. Thanks especially to Flying Donut! I only have 6 items for starters, but will be listing from now on! Take a gander! Thanks, William - Higghawker -

Make sure you use KEY WORDS in the title of your auction. For instance, some of your listings does not include the word Comic. When people do a search, they use key words. Good luck.

Good advice, but do you really think anybody uses "comic" as a search?

[comicdonna]

I do all the time.

[jokersrevenge]

but then that's your name......I think you may be a little biased....

[comicdonna]

No offence, but if nearly every comic book sold on ebay uses the word comic in the title. I would think, that Comic would be the most important key word, other than the name of the book. It has nothing to do with my user id comicdonna.

Comicdonna, Thanks for the advice! I have a question for all! I used scans that I re-sized myself, which didn't turn out so hot. I have heard that I should use Datazap.net. Is this worth the $3.50 per month fee? And if so, what is a good size pic to use? Thanks again for all the advice, Higghawker

Why not just browse the comic section? Why waste time using "comic" as the search, which will bring up a ton of comic related items.

Just my personal thinking Comic as a key word for the search engines doesnt seem like a good idea although a interesting one.

Its the best $3.50 you will spend a month. You can also set up different catagories and scan a bunch of your books.

 

I have catagories for

 

1 Original art

2 Pedigree books

3 Books to be auctioned

 

I think you get my point

keywords are a good suggestion, but I wouldn't waste my precious title digits using the word "comic". I have NEVER used it in either an Ad Title or in a search.

[ArAich]

If you're in the eBay comics section why use the keyword "comic" since you are already viewing them ...

[comicdonna]

Enough already. I will stop using the word Comic.

Ditto.
