How many bids and how much should I expect from my first ebay auction?

it all depends on what you are selling and if that's what people are looking for.try to find stuff people are looking for look at stuff on eBay first. see what stuff is selling and what stuff is selling a for. SO you can make money at it and not lose money.

i don't get it! how many shirts are you selling and why are thye SOO expensive??

I wouldn't hold my breath on that auction, sorry that's a bit pricey and I'm sure there are people who are shaking their heads like me.

It doesn't matter if it's your first or 50th...just that the price is right for the product. For the first I would say to make it a cheap product so that people will risk losing their money if you don't come through...for example, don't sell a car on Ebay until you have a really good reputation, or people wont buy it becaues they don't trust you enough if their money were to be wasted on something that big/ expensive.

depends on what your selling. depends on if anyone really wants what your selling.

Depends on the product...it looks as if you are selling cloths, WOW there are a lot of cloths on E-bay...My first step whenever i put anything on e-bay is to check out the competition, if there is any and list my idem at their price or just below...

Yea, the shipping seems a bit high for standard ground shipping. As long as you did your research, looking in the completed listings, beforehand you should be alright. Because you only have sold 2 things before, people may be a bit afraid of trusting you, until you sell 10 things, and get a gold star beside your name, people don't seem to bid on new members. Also some people are scared off by reserve bids. You also should mention if the picture you have is a manufacturers photo or one of your own pictures. Because, it should be a real picture of your actual product. EBay is a strange thing, you can put an auction up one week, and get no bids at all, the next week you can get 10. The more you do it, the more you get a feel for how things work, and when things are selling and when they are not. Don't expect things to go well right away. Keep trying!

i sell on ebay,and what i do is go to completed auction's and look at what the item i have has sold for.it's a good way to get a start out price.are you buying the 25 shirts or selling them?

Geez, how many people do you feel want to buy 25 shirts at once? Split them up, sell a few each week, maybe two to three at a time, you will also keep your shipping costs down. $105 for shipping is way too high, I also noticed you are selling Madonna tickets for over $1100.00 this shows me that you are scalping them and not bargain minded. You are definitely not on the right program to sell what you want to sell. People shop eBay for deals and I certainly don't see any reason to buy what you have for sale, plus the fact that you have a reserve on your items which is over $200.00 so right now to buy your shirts it is $300.00 including shipping which is $12.00 per shirt sight unseen, not a good deal especially since it does not meet your reserve, so I am thinking that your reserve is about $400.00 plus shipping which would make it $500.00 or $20.00 per shirt which for sight unseen and one size makes it impractical to buy the whole lot. Again you should split them up or put up a "buy now" price, a reserve is a great way to kill your sale. Hope the info helps......good luck
