[QUOTE="Bdigger, post: 132486, member: 157"]Doug.......Selling online can be fun and profitable. It can also be frustrating starting out. Here are some rules of thumb I use. 1. Buy what you like......Because you may end up having it around for awhile. 2. Don't spend more then you are willing to lose. 3. Remember to figure is selling costs, shipping fees, and final value fees from the auction sites. 4. Have fun and try to learn as you go. 5. Invest in a good camera so you can put the best quality photos possible in your auctions. Don't skimp on pictures, you are asking people to buy something that they can't see in person, so a lot of good quality photos will help sell your item. 6. Avoid buying damaged items. A little damage can and will have a big effect on selling price. Hope that helps![/QUOTE]
