Sellers who want to make money on eBay should never discount the value that positive feedback brings to their sales. In fact it is not just the positive feedback percentage that matters, but also the total number of feedbacks that have been received, and how you use that information. If you have a very high percentage of positive feedback, show it off. Let all prospective buyers know about your positive feedback.

Experienced buyers are more likely to deal with you when you have a very positive feedback record in combination with a large number of feedbacks. The greater the likelihood that prospective bidders will deal with you the greater the likelihood that you will in fact receive bids. More bids can mean that you are likely to receive a higher final price. Higher final prices can mean that you make money on eBay.

Make money on eBay by including positive feedback information (Especially when you have 100% or close to 100% positive feedback!) in all of your item descriptions that saves every prospective bidder the time to go investigate. They can quickly see the information rather than having to go find it.

Another great idea is to include the feedback comments that you are particularly proud to have received right in your listings. It is as easy as simply copying and pasting the selected feedback comments right into each item's description page. Don't forget to make sure that this is done with every listing. One of the best strategies to make money on eBay is opening an eBay Store. Yet it can be frustrating to determine when to open a store. For many sellers determining the right time to open is an ongoing question. They wait and don't make a decision. Yet the basic question of to open or not to open an eBay Store remains.

Rather than allow the question to go unanswered sellers who want to make money on eBay need to consider a few things about their eBay business for themselves:

?One of the very first considerations is about how serious and committed they are to their eBay business. EBay Stores require much work and dedication. If the seller cannot say that they like what they are doing on eBay and that they are ready to grow their business and make money on eBay then an eBay Store is the wrong answer.

?Sellers need to ask themselves if they want to become even more closely linked to eBay. If problems or concerns already exist then opening an eBay Store which even more closely aligns the seller to eBay may be the wrong decision.

?Sellers who are considering opening an eBay Store need to ask themselves if they have the bandwidth to dedicate the required time to operate an eBay Store. While the majority of those who open an eBay Store indicate that opening an eBay Store increased their sales it does take time and dedication.

?If the seller is still moving in the direction of opening an eBay Store there are financial concerns. Adding the required inventory will cost money or another creative solution needs to be identified. (Drop shipping for example.) For the seller with limited funds to purchase inventory the time may not be right for opening an eBay Store.

Opening an eBay store can prove to be a way to make money on eBay. It can add to existing sales. It is a logical step in the growth of many eBay businesses. Make sure the timing is right before you move forward. However when the timing is right don't delay. Investigate the details about opening an eBay Store.
