Scott your videos are a great inspiration to those of us that are getting started on this journey. They helped me set up my first listing in April. At this point I have listed 47 items and made over 20 sales. I use my phone to take pics and to list. If I have to make changes I find it easier to do it on my computer. One thing as soon as the buyer pays I print the label right away and I ship the next day at the latest. So far so good. Again thanks. You are definitely a great inspiration to all of us .

You are a rock star!!!

I travel for work so how do I include that because of this my shipping and handling can be 4-7 days

[@TheChaChingKing]

You can put your shipping policy to that many days and then include a statement in your description. It wouldn't hurt to send a buyer a message when you make a sale and let them know when it will ship, too.@@dye2knit

[@Seawing-v5d]

Very useful advice. I just wanted to say however, I had someone tie up my first listing last year because I allowed the 'make offer' option. They didn't pay and also locked up my listing for 28 days, plus I had to report a dispute to eBay on my very first attempt to sell something. I didn't lose any money, but if I wasn't so wary I might have sent the item on good faith and lost it. I did manage to sell the item right after the 30 days but it certainly took some of the positivity out of my sails.

[@TheChaChingKing]

You're certainly not wrong. Why eBay still allows a buyer to tie up a "sold" item is completely beyond me.

Scott, we're just dipping our toes into the eBay waters, planning on building a business to enjoy during our upcoming (4 years) retirement. We've learned a lot from all of your videos, but help! While creating a listing, where do I find the "custom label" or "custom UPC" so I can enter the storage location? We look forward to huge success and your videos will surely help us get there! Tom & Corrina

[@TheChaChingKing]

Thank you for the kind words! On the computer, the SKU (where I enter my storage location and invisible to a buyer) is 2 boxes below the title. On an android phone, it is at the very bottom of the Item Specifics. I hope that helps!

[@DivinePudding133]

Very great tutorial. I've been selling locally for years and never did shipping because I don't know how to. What I don't get still is how do you know how much the shipping will be? I have so many vintage Scream masks I unfortunately need to get rid of due to medical expenses. Also will you do an updated tutorial on shipping the item out? Thanks!

[@TheChaChingKing]

I just shipped a Gen 1 Small Dot mask. I put it in a large zip lock bag. Then I put that in a box surrounded by packing paper. I shipped it USPS Priority mail just because of the cost. As far as what to charge, you could always use a USPS medium flat rate Priority box and it'll run $14. If you charge $13.99 you'll be close.

[@lionheart830]

I have also had this "not knowing the cost of shipping" problem. I think it's what held me back from selling.

Great eBay teacher👍🏼 i’m going to subscribe your channel to learn more. I want to be a seller.

[@TheChaChingKing]

Thank you so much. I hope your find some of it helpful.

[@lionheart830]

We have a list of things to sell that are collecting dust around the house, including cd, dvd, books, tired decorations that have some value. Two weeks ago, I couldn't think of more than one item to sell. Since then, we started a list of things to sell by watching reseller videos. Some of the items they pick up at their sales are in my inventory. Wesee what they are buying and think... we have one of those or something similar or it brings to mind something else. This is how wemake our list. Should we open a seperate bank account? Afraid our bill money will get mixed with the sales money.

[@TheChaChingKing]

If you plan on selling long term, I would definitely run it through a dedicated account. It will make tax season much easier.

[@karenharriman5114]

If ebay is promoting 200 free listings a month why would it be restricted to 10 as you stated it might be? And how long are restrictions and how do we get beyond the restricted amount? Thank you so much for taking the time to show how to do the steps! I'm so grateful! Pastor Karen

[@mndnight8664]

HI Scott, My little brother is insisting on reselling online, has been selling at the flea market with my parents since he was 14. Hes turning 16 this year, but my parents wont let him on the fact if he doesn't sell he would open a bank account and lose on monthly services fees. I've heard that you can use eBay balance as a way to pay for labels but wont that be impossible with the money being on hold for 3 business days

[@TheChaChingKing]

You should be able to pay for the label from the eBay balance. While it isn't available for immediate withdrawal, it is available for labels. The bigger issue might just be his age. I think you have to be 18 to sell on eBay. But I'm not entirely sure. And, you will need a bank account to withdraw the money from eBay. It's funny, one of my fears when we started treating eBay like a business was that I was afraid it would cost more in bank fees, ebay fees and shipping than I was making. We turned it into a real income. It's harder when you're starting because you don't have a balance forward. But you can make a living on ebay.

[@mndnight8664]

Thank you ill let my parents know, they just rather wait to see result, rather than jumping in and him loosing. ebay Tos says 18 but with parent permission or account. Again Thank You!

How do you get a split picture as the main photo. For example I want to show the front and back of the t shirt as my main photo, and I’ve seen listings with a half pic front and the other half back. Any help would be appreciated thank u,and thanx for all ur videos

[@anitasmith3063]

When getting ready to list and then store items, do you pack them up first to get the weight and size, and then store? I can't seem to get this through my head? Thank you again...

[@TheChaChingKing]

If you are using calculated shipping, you need to know the packaged size and weight of the item. BUT, once you've found out how much an XL t-shirt is going to weigh, you'll get better and better at just knowing. You won't have to do every item. Melody and I can both look at an item and have a very good idea how it's going to ship. So, that process gets much easier with experience.

[@MyLivingJournal]

Hello, I just found your helpful channel. I was wondering why you just wouldn't use the free shipping boxes that USPS gives you, for the hats? Thanks

[@TheChaChingKing]

The free boxes USPS gives you must be used with Priority Mail. Priority Mail is much more expensive. It's cheaper to ship it First Class and buy the box than it is to ship Priority

[@north4560]

Can you explain more about the limitations of 10 items or $500?

[@TheChaChingKing]

Sure. When you first open an account and start selling on eBay, eBay needs to make sure you're a decent person. So, they limit how much you can list until they see that you're actually shipping the stuff you sell and that the customers are happy. It protects their customers and their platform. The limits typically start with 10 items and $500 TOTAL in listings...whichever one you hit first. Those limits start going up after 30 days, and you successfully complete transactions.

You can sell those brands, but there might be limitations based on where you are located. Many brands don't allow you to sell the items as new. Also, popular brands like these often report people for selling imitations (fakes). But if you have authentic pieces, these brands do sell.

Not necessarily. Because eBay is currently handling all of the international returns for any reason, I hesitate to accept them on my end.

[@TheChaChingKing]

In the US, LOTS of people get shipping supplies from places like our dollar stores. The bring in so many products and throw the supplies away. I don't know what equivalent you have there. Surely there is a store that wouldn't mind you checking their dumpsters for bubble wrap and boxes. I buy my bubble wrap from American Bubble Boy. I buy my boxes from eBay and Amazon.

[@josealejandre2330]

Cha Ching King , when listing an item and it’s not calculated shipping, do I have to fill in weight and dimensions with all shipping materials spot on or can I do the product weight alone and fill the rest when printing the label?

[@TheChaChingKing]

You need to be close enough that if someone buys it through international shipping that it doesn't create a problem. But, outside of that, it won't make much difference at all.

Scot, thanks. When at the bottom of the listing you check”pay Immediately” does that prevent your ability to choose who you sell to. If they pay immediately and they have a questionable or negative feedback or buying history your on the hook. Am I correct?

[@TheChaChingKing]

Yes and no. Even without immediate payment required, the buyer could pay immediately. And, if they didn't pay immediately and you cancel the sale after checking out their feedback, they could still leave you feedback. So, it doesn't have a big impact one way or the other. In my opinion.

It always had been for me. I have never had an issue

[@andreyboiko1647]

How can I go directly to the Seller Hub page?

[@TheChaChingKing]

I posted the link to this your question on the other video. I also made a video about the Seller Hub. Maybe it can be helpful, too. kzbin.info/www/bejne/l2GrYoRjnbNofJo

Hiya, I've been offered the opportunity to list items for 80% discount on final buy now sale price is it possible to un list my items & then relist them at the discount rate please?

[@TheChaChingKing]

You can easily end items and then relist them at any price you choose. They will each count towards your monthly allotment of listings that you can do. But it is entirely possible.

Is there a way to restrict sales to just the US? I don't want to deal with international shipping just yet/

[@TheChaChingKing]

Yes, just don't opt into the international sales. That said, if you only use the Ebay International Shipping service, it's a no risk set up for the seller. They take all the returns, deal with all of the customs and handle any complaints. So far, NONE of it comes back to the seller.

@@TheChaChingKing Thank you so much!!!

[@gsmscrazycanuck9814]

Great video. How do you get payed? Ebay wants my bank information. What are my options?

[@TheChaChingKing]

I use a bank account specifically for eBay/business. I have never had a single issue.

How do I find the Seller Hub page?

[@TheChaChingKing]

Opt in to the Seller Hub here: www.ebay.com/sellerhub

[@MaritzaRodriguezCruz-k3k]

Hi. If you are a new seller and you have a store, does Ebay restrict you to list say 10 items only when you start listing?

[@TheChaChingKing]

You still have the restrictions until you've successfully sold some items.

[@MaritzaRodriguezCruz-k3k]

Thank you. I want to let you know that you are one of the best teacher that I have encounter in my research of re-selling information. I loved the way you explain and inspire me to start listing. Still I feel a little nervous about how to start but I am getting ready to jump in. I am taking my time because I want to feel more confident and you are helping me just do that. Now definitively I will change my user ID. I did not know we can do that.

[@TheChaChingKing]

My goal when I started this channel was to be helpful and encouraging. I honestly wasn't sure I had anything to offer that wasn't already being done and done well. So, your comment is genuinely appreciated. Thank you. @@MaritzaRodriguezCruz-k3k

[@christinesharman7103]

I have some pieces of furniture to sell can I ask the buyer to collect? Never done eBay before.

[@TheChaChingKing]

You can list items for "pick up only."

[@christinesharman7103]

Thanks for that

[@NickGuerrero-t1g]

it is not letting me change the format of the pricing option. Has anyone ran into this?

[@TheChaChingKing]

Are you trying to change it on an existing listing? One thing to check is the "immediate payment" option. If you have that checked, you can't set it to an auction.

[@hresulas4446]

Thank you for the step by step process in listing and item on eBay! So easy to understand and follow. 🤗

[@TheChaChingKing]

You are so welcome!

[@piggybank9899]

Is it good to list on the mobile phone

[@Bigjaxclothing]

Idk what I’m doing wrong I list I sell them it’s like eBay sends me a very small payment I am missing how to set prices.

[@TheChaChingKing]

I will try to put a future video together that breaks down how to estimate how much you'll make in a sale.

[@schoolnursesaves]

This is a great question! I am glad you asked about this, I am curious too❤️. I haven't done my first yet, but this is one of my fears🫣

[@CarolAnn11]

I'm having a hard time in Canada getting ebay to default to chit-chat US shipping address so I can use USPS instead of the ridiculously priced Canada Post...I'm new to selling and would appreciate some help. I love your videos...cheers

[@TheChaChingKing]

Canada gets the worst deal of any of our neighbors and shipping destinations. It makes no sense. That said, I've never tried to do what you are doing. Having no experience with it, I'm not much help.

[@CarolAnn11]

@@TheChaChingKing yes we do. Thank you so much for replying I really enjoy your videos they're very informative

[@TheChaChingKing]

I truly appreciate the kind words. I want the videos to be helpful, so I try to follow up as much as I can. @@CarolAnn11

[@schoolnursesaves]

I had to rewatch it quickly because you mentioned something that I wanted to take note to ask about then I forgot what it was, and then ended up with 2 questions both are for clarification: #1: The quantity setting- does this refer to how many are available to be sold in the store (ie: 2 of the same item listed at the same price) or buyer is receiving BOTH on the same order? #2: For calculated shipping - do we need to go in and figure out the weight of the packaging along with the item prior to listing to minimize cost out of pocket for the seller? Thanks again Scot! I guess you may have a good idea what I am trying this summer while out of work for summer break...gotta love school life❤️😊

[@TheChaChingKing]

The QUANTITY is how many you have....not how many the buyer gets. When they buy it, they would have to choose to buy more than one. And, if they make an offer, they have to put how many they are willing to buy EACH for the offer they send. Does that help?

[@schoolnursesaves]

@@TheChaChingKing Awesome! Thank you, I was hoping that was the case😊 How about the calculated shipping though?

[@donareynolds2472]

My shipping screen is not like yours and can't get package options or calculated rates. There's nothing behind the options listed.

[@TheChaChingKing]

The platform changed a little bit after this video was made. You probably need to create shipping policies to match what you're wanting to do.

[@CricketLovers-ez5ff]

Brother can we upload pictures with background of grass

[@TheChaChingKing]

You can literally use any background you like. I've actually used grass before. I had some enormous quilts that simply couldn't be photographed indoors. And, I live in the country and don't have pavement. So...grass it was. It turned out just fine.

[@aymansadiq1590]

What if im listing from outside of usa ? What changes should i know ?

[@TheChaChingKing]

I know that you will have to have a US bank account of some kind. Other than that, I don't have any experience listing from outside of the US. I would search KZbin for eBay and your country's name and see if anyone is posting from your location. They would have much more experience doing what you are wanting to do.

[@aymansadiq1590]
