Selling on ebay

Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,876,323 The Mix Honorary Guru
Does anyone have any tips with this?

I currently have around 7 items selling

A pandora bracelet, a few pairs of jeans and call of duty black ops

If I take them into my local post office will they be able to send them for me? and provide packets?

Thanks in advance

    What kind of postage options did you offer on the ebay listings? I would normally use some bubble-wrap envelopes, you can get them cheapish from a post office or newsagent.

    I put standard delivery on them, I probably should have done a bit of research before tampering with it :x

    I use this when selling something on eBay (this is rarely now because there are too many power sellers and sellers with shops!!)

    Standard delivery, unless its worth something/heavy then use recorded delivery.

    Use bubble-wrapped lined envelopes for the small items.

    Not sure about what to post the jeans in?

    Postage bag. Can get them from any post office.

    Future reference, you can use the Royal Mail website to estimate your postage costs with size/weight calculator. But you can buy postage packages/envelopes/stickers etc inside most Post Offices, or ASDA, Tesco, Wilkinsons etc. You should always go recorded delivery too.
