Recently a friend asked me to help her brother sold his collection of Lladró figures glass eBay. These expensive glass collectibles, and I knew nothing about it - but I do not have. These principles are selling expensive collectibles on eBay are the same, regardless of what is sold.
Of course, like any auction eBay, the seller must be a strong list of large images. This is always true, regardless of what product. Caro collectibles offer excellent opportunities, but they also need special precautions.
1st price: the decision to accept a smaller amount for each character, and that price as a reserve. Then make your ridiculously low opening bid - so funny.
Example: if one wants to take $ 1000 - the opening of its offer to $ 25. There is no danger in that because you do not need to sell if the tender is $ 1000, but low prices for buyers (assuming that the demand is, of course).
View has completed auctions on eBay, which allows you to control the prices again and again, we learned that, starting with the price that the seller expects to complete this is not the wisest tactic.
For example, a seller wants 750 dollars for her figure. The opening bid of $ 750 does not attract nearly as many customers as the opening bid at $ 25 and - surprisingly - the lowest price is almost always higher prices. There is a certain psychology at work with a cheap price. He could not make logical sense, but it is a reality of life on eBay.
2nd Posvyatim place on its list of auctions to explain how you Pack your product to ensure road safety. This is extremely important, because in the back of every buyer’s mind fear of receiving a package rattle. The collection of buyers will inevitably think of the trouble, they will pass - and the potential loss of the purchase price - if your item broken. You should know that sells this matter carefully and has a solution.
3rd To protect both parties insist that the buyer pays for adequate insurance. Make sure that this option. You definitely do not want the responsibility has been broken, that the cost of collecting hundreds of dollars. Indeed, if the customer complains about the payment of insurance, it could be a red flag. True collector interested in your collection and want to protect your character.
4th We can assume that any buyer of the Internet have heard stories of fraud on eBay and other sites on the Internet. That’s all you can do to prove the authenticity of his collection is worth your time. Is there a sign at the bottom? You have the original box or other container? Do you have a label? Is there a certificate of authenticity and assess compliance with the organization? If the answer to one of them so, do not forget to emphasize their authenticity in the auction. Photographing your evidence is especially effective.
5th I do not propose to offer them safeguards, if in the most general - is you, the seller tells the truth about the product. Each tender for the collector well, and therefore know what they are buying, so it should not be cause for return. If someone expresses dissatisfaction with mail and cargo back, it is likely to be broken. They do not want that effort to try the product is defective or controversial situation with someone who refuses to believe that the series broke through the return postage.
Apart from the one you do not want the loss of eBay fees, which could be important if the price is very high.
6th What really expensive items, always make it possible to the escrow service - at the expense of the buyer, of course. You do not want to use this service, but make sure you have the opportunity. You certainly know that your product is legitimate, but the buyer was not so sure. eBay recommends that the escrow service for all members.
7th If you are ready to be shipped around the world, you need to take special measures to protect it. We in the U.S. system AVS (Address Verification), which provides some protection. Much of the fraud, the buyer takes place outside the United States, and that they are justified in protecting himself. Loss of the purchase price of $ 5 item is not so much - but at $ 1000 collectibles necessarily role.
Your bank can inform you about the time he would study foreign funds. Make sure that all potential buyers in the auction know that will delay when they are outside their country. Do not expose your product from your hands until it is safe!
If you have these “rules” the possibility of their expensive collection at the highest possible increase in prices.
