How do you sell properly on here?

[bangsportscards]

I've got little inventory to offer, want to bypass the eBay process and sell right here.

I'm looking for a direction as to the method to get set up for this. Do I type lists up, post asking prices, provide transaction details, and shipping particulars?

What decisions should be made overall to maximize outcomes?

In the meantime I'm looking around for answers.

As a buyer, the top things I look for in a selling thread is:

1) A full list, don't just say "tell me what you need"

2) Post your asking price. I wish this was REQUIRED among seller threads because it gives the buyer an instant idea of what price you're thinking about and gives a pretty close price point to start negotiations.

3) Include a shipping description - how cards will be shipping, charges for one card, two cards, or more. Charge ACTUAL shipping.

Just what I like to see myself.

A full list help, if you have scans of all your cards in a bucket that is also a plus. I also like sellers that have a price in mind and listed. Of course if your prices are comparable to ebay or cheaper than ebay, your inventory will move quicker.

A full list with scans, Negotiable Prices, and patience(Your New, that will make People hesitate right there, Sorry but it's true), Description of Shipping is good to have as well.

Good luck with it

Thanks for the input. I had about as much figured and wanted a little confirmation.

another thing about being new is be prepared to send first. i cant count how many times sellers on here cost themselves sales because for someone reason they dont think the must send first rule should apply to sales and refuse to abide by it. you will cost your self a ton of sales by not sending first as a MSF trader.
