Hi all,

Just a quick one on eBay... Im about to put a listing up for my mugs.... although I did not want to go down the eBay route... it just works out better as a starting point..

my question is... which catagory do you list under?

I have checked out 2 options...

Collectables > Kitchenalia > Mugs = £5.95 to list

or

Home & Garden > Dining Room > Crockery & Tableware > Mugs = £0.40 to list..

any reason for this

I use the Collectibles option as above an get a fee of 40p (was 35p until yesterday).

You must be doing something drastic to get a £5.95 fee

Something amiss somewhere.

I'm just doing a couple at a time at the moment testing the waters for a specific theme.

I'll be expanding the range over the next few weeks and will then have a couple of dozen designs up at any one time.

I have just started out with the "Personalised Mug" option... asking people for their own idea etc... I have a number of idea's waiting to go live... but again like yourself testing the waters to get some order under the belt...

How long have you been selling on eBay and how many orders are you picking up a week?

I've only been selling the mugs on ebays for a week or so and have only got two different ones up so far (they're not personalised).

I occasionally have to relist one but they all sell.

Why not put them on a 30 day BIN, only costs 40p, saves relisting every 7-10 days
