eBay BIG mistake

I have realized that trying to sell something on eBay for other than an auction price is a BIG MISTAKE. There is a charge when you list an item based on the amount listed then there is another charge when it is sold based on the selling price. The fees on the items I listed yesterday are going to be much more than anticipated.

eBay

I have listed three items on ebay, an Autum Jasper bracelet #5013878754, a Black Agate necklace set #5015492662 and an Agate & Rose Quartz bracelet set #5015497262.

I am in the "learing how" stage of using eBay. I really don't want to auction my items, that is why the price is high. I listed the actual selling price.

Fredericksburg Trade Days (by the way, it is across the highway from Wildseed Farms not Wildflower) was great fun, however, not enough sales. Cowboy stuff and antiques were the best sellers not jewelry.

Getting Started

Deep breath . . . Here goes . . . First post . . . Hopefully this is "user friendly".

I invite you to share my journey as I expand my creativity and build my jewelry business.

Last weekend I received an order for a custom necklace. Today I went to Bead Traders and found the "perfect" beads. While at the shop I noticed some fantastic square seed beeds, well, they are larger than seed beads, approximately size 4 or 5. I purchased both gold and silver. I feel the inspiration beginning.

I leave Thursday for Fredericksburg Trade Days. If you are in the Fredericksburg Texas area Friday, Saturday or Sunday stop by. I am in barn 2 space 7. Fredericksburg Trade Days is located accross the road from the Wildflower Farm on hwy 290. Be sure and say Hi!
