subject: What Sells Best on UK eBay? 3 Questions Top Sellers Ask Before Listing [print this page] One of the ironies of eBay is that you can sell virtually anything on there. By this I mean that no matter what item you list, there is a good chance that it will sell. This is because eBay is such a powerful market place that there will probably always be someone searching for exactly what you're selling.
The true top sellers on eBay, however, never follow that process. You will rarely find them listing an item "to see if it sells". Top sellers adopt a much more pragmatic route. They will always do their research before even selecting products to sell.
They will want answers to these three key questions:
By finding the answers to the three questions, top sellers know what items they should source and then list.
Can you see the logic in this?
The answer to question one tells you what buyers are presently purchasing on eBay. Naturally you're at an advantage if you list products which you know are currently in demand. Answer two tells you what eBay buyers are looking for. If you list products which you know will be brought back in search results, then you have given yourself a far better chance of making a sale.
The answer to question three reveals the hottest products of all. These are the listings which are being watched by the largest number of eBay buyers. By marking a listing as one they want to watch, eBay buyers are telling you that they are poised to buy that product. If you list products that are the same or similar to those which are the most watched, then you will be meeting a proven demand.
What the top sellers on UK eBay know is that research is vital in deciding which products to sell. After such research, they are well positioned to make consistent profits from multiple sales of products which they know are in demand.
