Also what about the electric currency being different in another country? Is that ever an issue?
I just counter with my best price. Sometimes I write a note saying this is my best and final thank you for your interest. If it’s truly lowball, they rarely come back. sometimes they email me a few dollars under my best and final I may or may not accept..Some people have to feel they got a better deal then what your offering I think….
I also read on another eBay group that some people are looking for items to sell on eBay and will offer lowball prices on hundreds of best offer items and maybe a small percentage will sell.I had a problem yesterday with my eBay app on my iPhone.
It took away my login and wouldn’t accept it. It gave me a strange internal error message.
I tried everything finally I deleted the app and reinstalled then it worked again. Crazy.Do you always get 100 free listings a month? I get offers and use them as I don’t have a store yet either. I don’t always get the offers.
On items I have more photos, My workaround is to write in the ad 12 picture eBay limit please email me for more images.
Not to many people do but it gives them the option.A local store uses the last 4 digits of his SKU # as his cost – but backwards
656355000 .. would mean he paid $50
on eBay I use this SKU format (buyers do not see it)
180219-032-654-003
DATEPOSTED-BIN-TAG-COST
the tag is a removable sticker label I useJoe I may try this as it seems pretty straight forward. so 003 means you paid $3 $30 $300?
I love the idea
So do you have a computer program for this or is this just a manually done thing?
All these systems sounds great and useful.I did find on line and on eBay Kiddish kiddush cups some of which look very similar also I found one that had the same bright purple velvet box.

“Kiddush is the Aramaic for “holy” and refers to the ceremony performed before meals during the Shabbat and other Jewish holidays with respect to the Torah decree that special arrangements be made in remembrance of days of religious significance. This ceremony, thousands of years in its observance, involves wine being consumed from an ornamental silver goblet after a blessing, then evenly divided amongst all participants of a meal in smaller cups. A Kiddush ceremony becomes even more significant when fine utensils and ornamentation is used in its performance, and Zion Judaica is your Internet destination for the finest in Kiddush fountains and other accessories.”I made one other discovery the cups are wrapped in a cottony lambskin material I opened up a second cup(they don’t look like they’ve ever been opened before and there is a different name on the second cup so probably on each cup a different name is inscribed.
Is it possible they have the name of a family one on each cup? I sort of don’t want to open anymore to ruin the seal. I may bring it to a Jewish Judaica store in town to see what they can tell me…
I love researching and learning all the history. That discovery for me is the joy of eBay (and a good return also).
Well I give up on that. I have gotten screwed up before trying to set the preferences for the shipping.
I tried (as an experiment) to list for one item only with shipping exclusions to certain countries actually most countries except the ones that have decent tracking.
then I went on to my account and ‘excluded’ all the countries I would not ship to also leaving the box checked for override for GPS..
When I went to look at my listing every listing had all the exclusion and the priority shipping without the GPS listed. It was very confusing.
I called eBay and they helped me reset everything back to GSP only. She said it would be very difficult to do GPS & international shipping with exclusions also.Way to much for my brain today to process.
I am unclear how you do international from the eBay site with figuring out postage customs forms etc…
Is there a drop down menu with prices for shipping international ? Right now I have Gsp turned on with nothing else..
I’ve only tried GPS with very good response. So far in less than a year I’ve sold to Japan Germany Canada England Netherlands Australia Spain.I may be willing to try some of the countries listed with good tracking info if it saved them some money and gave me more sales.
Thanks Linda,
I think my mistake was:
Originally I measured a box that mainly fit the item I would just have to add a bit of cardboard. Then I needed that box for another item I was shipping.
I didn’t realize the size constraints as I misunderstood the whole girth thing. lolAnyway I think it’s fine as I sent it out parcel …
