Ebay Advice Needed

[007]

What are ebay like on US Gamecubes and US Gamecube Games?

I want to sell this little bundle...

http://ntsc-uk.domino.org/viewtopic.php?p=168105#168105

But don't know what to expect on Ebay, as at times, it can be a tad unpredictable.

What should I do?

Sell some of it individually on Ebay? Or all together? Or sell the modded RGB leadm and then the rest of the bundle on Ebay?

Any help would be highly appreciated!

Money's getting very tight after going on a spending spree. So i've decided to get rid of a few of my older GC games, it's not as if i'm going to play them ever again, is it?

Cheers.

P.s, depending on the outcome on this thread. I'll bung whatever is decided on ebay tonight.

Thanks.

stick it all on with "buy it now" dont be greedy with the price just ask for what it is worth, I like most people will pay a fair price using "buy it now" because you know you have won straight away and you will get the item straight away.

I have sold a few bits at ?250+ with "buy it now" and they have all gone within 24 hours.

put in the ad that you will send day the payment is received, the worst thing with ebay is waiting 5 days to get the item, or even worse waiting 5 days then being outbid.


btw - sent you a PM about vaio battery and not had an answer mate, get in touch

Any tips for putting this particular thing on ebay? What would be a good catchy title? You can have cacthy second titles too, which is a nice new feature.

Do you think ?250 is a fair price for all that on Buy it Now? Can you do it so that you can't make a bid, just Buy It Now. Or keep Buy it Now on all the time?

I'm a complete Ebay Noob. So help me out.

Just want to know the best way of selling it, and advertising it on there.

Cheers.

You can just list items as BIN now theres even a tab for peeps who search for just BIN auctions.

when doing auctions try and include words like GC Import mod Gamecube console Jap/USA + Games

Other thing to add is the word System, alot of Jap sellers list consoles as Gamecube System etc, and i cannot be the only one who trys to single out the consoles

Ill add more if i think of any

Cheers dude!

So I can list an Item as Buy it Now. And it will stay as Buy It Now, untill someone buys it? If they do that is!

What do you think is a fair price for that bundle? It's nasty, but xmas is coming up, and I've recently been on a spending spree, so I need to get as much money as possible!

Is ?250 good? ?100 for the machine and RGB lead. And ?15 for each game?

I mean, I could sell a few of those games for like ?20-?25. But it is a bit of hassle...

Thanks again.

Yep, you need atleast 10 feedback to use bin though afaik

I cannot help here i havnt got a clue of prices for GC stuff

best thing to do is look at finished auctions and see what the average is. From experience ive found that i sell things alot quicker by splitting it up, or by bunching some stuff together.

Eg putting a lesser known title with a AAA title. Or selling a console with 1 AAA and some average titles then sell the other AAA ones seperatly

Buggery. I've only got 6.

How much does it charge you to cancel your auction and pull out?

afaik all you lose is your listing fee, which all depends on how many options you want, but on average with BIN and no reserve and 1 pic about ?1.25 - ?1.50 i think

what i used to do before they introduced BIN was say first bid wins the auction, then end it early.. its a bit ropey but it always worked for me

You can also use BIN if you are registered with a debit account for billing.

PLATINUM NTSC MODIFIED NINTENDO GAMECUBE

That's the title. All I could fit in.

And this is the subtitle.

*Custom Gamecube+Modded RGB Lead+11 Games*

What should I change?

Thanks dude. I owe you a pint.

[Pij]

I would get rid of Nintendo mate and add Jap/US maybe import, peeps arnt that likely to search for nintendo as it just brings up to much(give it a try)

Everyone i know searches for JAP/US/USA IMPORT then go further with JP/JAPAN if they dont find what there looking for

i dont know if the search works on subtitles as ive never used them

hi, theres a package one on ebay like yours now, with a purple cube(modded) with 10 games and a rgb scart for 200quid BIN, so for your's around 250quid is fair.

[rjpageuk]

Those modded cables sell like hotcakes in this forum, so I would sell that separately if I was you.

You can always put a reserve on it so someone doesn't get it for next to nothing.

Hey guys.

Could you do me a favour, pop onto ebay and search for Import Gamecube and then for Platinum Gamecube.

The reason being, when i'm logged out. And search for it, It doesn't come up. Which is worrying me alot.

My one is the Highlighted one in bold.

Cheers.
