Private eBay Auctions
Any seller on eBay has the option to make their auction private. A private
auction on eBay means that only the seller knows the identities of those bidding
on the item or items being offered.
On the eBay website you can find this information posted by eBay regarding
private auctions: “While there are some cases where private listings are
appropriate, such as the sale of high-priced ticket items or approved
pharmaceutical products, you should only make your listing private for a
specific reason.”
Some sellers say that using the private auction option prevents their
competitors from stealing their customers or knowing what they selling price of
each item was. They also say that it protects their customers from SPAM that is
initiated by their competitors.

6 Ways to Increase Profits on eBay
You may well have been selling on eBay for quite sometime and consider yourself
as doing alright but there are ways that you can do better than just alright.
Consider using these techniques to raise your profitability on eBay:
1.Choose a niche and stick with it: What is meant by niche is that you market to
the same general part of the buying public by offering varying products that
will be attractive to the same people.
If you sell pots and pans for cooking, you might also offer dinnerware, for
example.
2.Use an auction management service or buy auction management software. Be sure
that the service or software that you buy supports eBay. This can save you a lot
of time and effort.
3.Coordinate your auction ending dates: Try to have all your auctions end on the
same day and at about the same time. You can save yourself a lot of time and be
better organized with shipping and shipping schedules.
4.Sell it, Ship it: Dont delay shipping items that you have sold. This is
another reason to have all your auctions end at about the same time.
When people pay for an item, they want it...and they want it yesterday. Sixty or
seventy percent of your feedback should be comments about prompt shipping.
5.Brand yourself: Use the templates that eBay makes available to make yourself a
recognized eBay seller. If you can become recognized by your logo, you will
increase your sales.
6.Sell one item at a time on auctions: Lumping a bunch of products together and
offering them at auction might seem like a good idea but it has been proven that
items that are offered one at the time do considerably better than multiple
items bundled together. |
