How to Sell

To list your item simply click on the “Sell” link found on the header navigational bar. The listing process is split up into several main sections, notably:-

Listing Type
Category selection
Item Details
images and media upload
Listing Settings
Shipping and Payment
Listing preview
Listing confirmation
The listing process is developed in such a way that you are guided through every step seamlessly.
The first step of the process is to choose the listing type, auction or product. Then to choose the category you wish to list your item in, this can be revised at any time by using the “Previous Step” navigation button. You will then enter your item title and description. You will then upload images and/or media.
Moving on to the next step, you will add in the listing settings. These will be different depending on whether you chose auction or product in the listing type in the previous step.
Listing settings for an auction type listing:
Currency:-
You can select your preferred auction currency using the drop down menu available.
Auction Starts At:-
This requires you to enter the minimum bid you are willing to accept, you can also set a reserve price to ensure you do not sell the item for this amount. Please see below for more information on this.
Reserve Price:-
Enabling a reserve price effectively means you will not sell the item for less than the amount set, for example you can set the start price at 5.00 but only accept winning bids over 50.00, should a bid be placed for 49.99 the item will close without a winner.
Buy out:-
Buy out allows you to set an amount you are willing to sell the item for – straight out. For example you can set the start price to 10.00 but offer interested parties the option to buy the item immediately for 100.00.
Offer-Range:-
You can set a price bracket in which you are willing to listing to offer, for example if you set the price brackets from 15.00 to 100.00 interested parties will be able to offer you an amount within these brackets, you can opt whether to accept or decline these offers at any time via the members area.
Bid increment:-
This option can be used to set your own custom bid increment if preferred.
Set start/end time/duration:-
You can either opt to list your item right away and set a defined number of days for it to be live for or you also have the option to define your own custom start/end time.
