Dave, I’ve been happily using Paypal as a merchant account and shopping system for years now, and would like to turn on a few of my colleagues to this fast and simple system. If possible, I’d like to get some sort of commission or referral bonus. Does Paypal offer such a thing?
Dave, I’ve just joined eBay and I’m trying to figure out what eBay’s Refer a Friend program is all about. More specifically, I can apparently earn eBay Anything Points but I just don’t see what they’re for. Is this really a way for me to make a few bucks helping other people learn about eBay?
Dave, how would you go about selling jewelry? Does Ebay have any appraisal service? Would I have to pay to get it appraised first and then submit the information along with the listing? It it necessary to have an appraisal for jewelry that is under $200?
Dave, quick! What is the quickest way to set up and sell something on Ebay (without reading a book!)?
Dave, I’ve just started selling stuff on eBay and am having a great time. One question I haven’t figured out, though, is whether it’s okay with eBay if I want to offer bonuses with my auctions to motivate buyers to bid. I might offer a bonus with an item because the two go together well, but I also want to be able to offer a bonus if bidding reaches a certain threshold too. Are those legal?
On another forum I’m involved with, someone’s asked a great question: I want to sell products on eBay, but I want to include photographs with my items. How do I do that? What kind of camera do I need, and what settings should I use?
A friend of mine who is just getting involved with the fun and crazy world of online auctions just recently found something she wanted to bid on at eBay. That’s good, but she decided not to bid because she’s heard too much about scams, rip-off artists and other untrustworthy characters. Rather than just bail on auctions, though, she asked me for some tips on bidding on eBay safely.
