<p>[QUOTE=&quot;lvetterli, post: 10158874, member: 130&quot;]I see basically the same trends in the malls I sell in. I probably shouldn&#039;t share this but those who frequent malls usually know that many, if not most, vendors will give a discount (I give 10%) on items over a certain price, most often $20. That discount is built in to the tag price and probably 90% of my sales are at full price. There are many things in my booths that have been there a long time and it always amazes me that, just when I plan to bring something home because it hasn&#039;t sold, it sells. I frequently review ebay sold prices on things that haven&#039;t moved and will lower the price if need be. I will also bring things home and donate them because it&#039;s obvious they are no longer desirable. Before I give up on things I really think should sell, I move them - to a different shelf, in a more prominent place or to a different mall. Not something you can do online particularly but you can shoot new pics, change your title up, create a group of pieces. When I sold on ebay (way back when things were easy and good there) I found that my photos were about the most important part of my listing. Use a solid background that contrasts the item, good lighting, good focus, show condition and marks. Basics I know but I still see listings with 1 photo, blurry or so far away you can&#039;t see detail. Or props that overshadow the item. The AI generated descriptions never mention condition. I would never consider purchasing whatever it is. </p><p><br /></p><p>And I&#039;ve gone on and on. I&#039;m not a pro but I have had reasonable success over the years. It&#039;s harder now but still doable. </p><p><br /></p><p>Best of luck, Linda[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
