<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Joan, post: 9498245, member: 5398&quot;]Great information for finding the sold price for at least a few items on Etsy...I didn&#039;t know that was possible.</p><p><br /></p><p>Regarding eBay, I&#039;ve been selling there for many years and have had very few problems, but I sell mainly vintage clothing, accessories, textiles, occasionally jewelry, rarely fragile breakables. </p><p><br /></p><p>A few months ago I had my first chargeback experience and was pleasantly surprised at how easy eBay made it for me to dispute. They sent me a message that a buyer claimed an item wasn&#039;t received, and said if I wanted to dispute it I needed to attach supporting documentation, which I did, and they would forward it to the financial institution. I made jpeg images of the USPS tracking/delivery, ebay&#039;s listing showing it was delivered including the buyer&#039;s ID and name, and a screenshot of the buyer&#039;s positive feedback after receiving the item. Maybe the buyer made a mistake or had gotten away with fraudulent chargebacks before, but anyway, it was quickly resolved in my favor.</p><p><br /></p><p>For the last two months I&#039;ve been helping my sister sort through and organize a 50 year accumulation/hoard of antiques, etc. It will be sold in several phases on HiBid through a local auction company. I&#039;m organizing, photographing, and writing descriptions of her vintage&nbsp; costume jewelry since I wasn&#039;t impressed with how the auctioneer displayed costume jewelry in previous auctions. </p><p><br /></p><p>If my sister&#039;s HiBid auctions do well, or even OK, I may start selling some of my &quot;inventory&quot; that way through the local auctioneer rather than on eBay. The auctioneer ships nationwide, and although his commission is higher than eBay fees, he would save me a lot of time and money not having to package and ship. I would, however have to take my items to his warehouse, which is 45 miles one way.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
