Ebay Tips

I'm dedicating some of my time to help my dad integrate ebay into one of the family businesses.

I wonder if any of you guys with experience could share any pointers (even the most basic) in this thread.

Here are a few tips of my own (as yet untested, however, since I'm new to ebay from a business pov):

- Work to maintain good feedback (quick responses, quick delivery, keeping promises, nice packaging)

- High quality photos and well-designed sales pages

- Low prices

- Offer multiple payment methods

- Invest in a shop (the intermediate one in the UK is 30 quid or about 60 bucks a month)

- Redirect a nice domain to your ebay store

- Offer freebies where possible

The product we sell cannot be changed but for anyone wishing to get into ebay, I hear selling more unique items (such as comics) is a good route.

So anyway, the above tips are all well-known, fairly obvious.

Please feel free to add your own tips.
