And you what are you puttin on a subject to attrack people on ebay? Personnaly I never used the L@@K. I prefer to be simple, like: ''Colecovision System with 52 games'' or something like that. However, on the description I will put work like RARE, COMPLETE, TESTED, READY TO WORK. I always get a good price on my auction!!!! Maybe I'm just lucky Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CPUWIZ Posted October 24, 2002 Share Posted October 24, 2002 If you know it's worth something, spend the $2.00,- to make it bold ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Atari_Warlord Posted October 25, 2002 Share Posted October 25, 2002 From someone who has used Ebay alot, here's what I look for and what I ignor: Look for: System (2600, etc.) Title of game Instructions included or not Condition Box included or not reasonable Buy it Now price Ignor: ALL CAPS - TO HARD TO READ Anything that says RARE - 99.9% of them aren't (my definition would be any game that shows up less than 12 times in a year) ridiculous starting bid Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JagMX Posted October 26, 2002 Share Posted October 26, 2002 Reasonable Shipping prices! a friend of mine is trying to finish a collection of wrestling figures but cant since everyone is charging ridiculous shipping prices for one and or more figures. They wiegh waaaaaaaaaaaaaaay less than a pound and are charging 6.00,7.00,8.00 and even 10.00! to ship ONE wrestling FIGURE! these people are NUTS, along with the win one or more wrestling figures and its 7.00 for the first figure 4.00 for each! ugh so the point is keep reasonable shipping prices, people will just walk away from auctions with stupid shipping prices Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Philflound Posted October 26, 2002 Share Posted October 26, 2002 You guys aren't covering the title here. It isn't what will get the highest bids once they see your auction. It is what will ATTRACT, yes he misspelled it, but you get the jist. When I do a search, the first thing I try and do is something like this. Atari 2600 Boxed Atari 2600 Box Atari 2600 MIB Atari 2600 Sealed Those are the key words. Then if I see a seller has a cool item and says he has more stuff, I click on 'sellers other auctions' under the auction I am looking at. Trust me when I tell you that unless you have an unlimited amount of time and "funds" since you wouldn't be working, you would not be able to view every auction. Try to key in on what you want. If you are newer to collecting, you'll literally need everything. If you are like me, you need the rarest of the rare, and of course boxes. Collecting has been getting extremely hard for me since I own a ton of games. So narrow your search unless you have a day off. Phil Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
charin Posted October 26, 2002 Share Posted October 26, 2002 and also helps to get more bids: International shipping available Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bjybjy Posted October 30, 2002 Share Posted October 30, 2002 And quite frankly, make sure everything is spelled correctly. I get real worried about sending someone a payment if they have spelled a lot of words wrong in the auction listing. Tad Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cap5750 Posted October 30, 2002 Share Posted October 30, 2002 Ah...just put **NUDE PICTURE INSIDE** in your title. I guarantee people will click on it just to see what it is. (Make sure you have a picture of an item "without its clothing") ) Cap Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
