How can you sell coins on ebay for 20 or more days.

When I list some of my coins I can only list for 10days and that is .40 xtra, so how can I list for 20 or more days? Is that only for ebay motors and stuff like that. The reason is, I want to put some buy it nows instead of listing every tens days if items don't sell and make ebays wallet fatter than mine. tyimage

    You can list for 30 days if you have an ebay store........more fees involved

    Yeah, more fees involved is an understatement. The final value fees for store sales is major BEND OVER time.

    IMHO coins don't need to be on eBay for more than a week.

    Depends what you're selling. When there are not a lot of buyers for a particular item, it often takes more than a week for one of them to show up.

    Store fees are more than reasonable if someone is linked to it from outside e-bay. They only charge the hefty fees if someone purchases an item from an e-bay search.

    eBay store listings can run until the item is sold and they charge:

    $1.00 - $24.99** $0.03 $0.03 / 30 days

    $25.00 - $199.99 $0.05 $0.05 / 30 days

    $200.00 and above $0.10 $0.10 / 30 days

    Each item automatically renews if it doesn;t sell and you get charged the listing fees all over again.

    Final Value fee's begin at 12% so in a phrase, yes it's bend over time!

    I decided to change calling the bathroom the John and renamed it the Jim. I feel so much better saying I went to the Jim this morning.



    The name is LEE!

    The final value fee in a store is pretty hefty, but the listing fees are cheap. So for some slow moving items it makes sense to stick them on a shelf in the store. You also have to factor in the monthly store subscription cost though, so do the math and see if it's worth it.

    I put stuff in the Ebay store for a bit, then try and shoot them off to auction if they don't sell in 30-days.

    Now I see why a lot of store items have hefty prices on them. Allways thought they were just jacking the PCGS price guide by 25% or so and they were.
