Profitable Paper Piecing on eBay--Part 1
Why sell paper piecings on eBay?
eBay is a great way to make a steady part-time or full-time
income from a hobby that you love! Selling paper piecings has its
ups and downs, but overall it is a rewarding and lucrative
venture.
Getting and Understanding An eBay Account
To get started selling paper piecings on eBay, you will need
to set up an account. If you already have an account, you many
want to consider changing your user ID to reflect your status as
a Paper Piecer. Find something that can be easily abbreviated for
your titles so that you can create a name for yourself that is
easy for potential customers to find. You can also use your
entire ID in your titles. Some examples are:
User ID is a*scrapfanatic and abbreviation in titles is A*
User ID is CherryRedSpyder and abbreviation is CHeRRYReD
User ID is Luvspaper and uses luvspaper in titles
If you don't yet have an account and want some information on
starting to sell, visit
http://pages.eBay/help/basics/n-selling.html
This will give you detailed step-by-step instructions to help
you get started!
When you are ready to list, keep these things in mind:
Choose a Category
Paper Piecing = 11792 OR
Toys&Hobbies, Hobbies&Crafts, Arts&Crafts,
Scrapbooking, PaperPiecing
Title
Make sure it contains the phrase "paper piecing" (without the
quotation marks) since many people find these items by searching
for "paper piecing" in the titles. Also try to include an
abbreviation of your user ID to help create a recognizable name
for your paper piecings. If there is room, try to list any extras
you have in your auction such as shaker, beads, buttons, etc.
Description
Start your description by giving all of the basic information
about the paper piecing that you made. List the dimensions and a
brief description of each part of the set.
Also let people know if you used pens and chalks to add detail
to your sets. If any part of your set is computer generated, it
is a good idea to note this in the auction.
Let everyone know whether your background paper is included or
not.
Make sure you let your potential customers know if you use all
acid-free, lignin-free products when making your sets. A lot of
people also list information such as "comes from a pet-free,
smoke-free home."
At the end of the description list all payment and shipping
information.
You want to make sure that customers know the following: what
payment methods you accept/ prefer, your shipping rate, how the
items will be packed, whether or not you offer insurance and how
much you charge, and your email address for any questions.
Minimum Bid
Set the price at the absolute minimum you are willing to accept
for this paper piecing. Most auctions start in the $3-10 range.
Adjust your minimum bid price according to time, materials used,
and the detail of the piece.
Auction Duration
You have a choice of 3, 5, 7, and 10 day auctions. Most paper
piecers use either 5 or 7 day auctions. It is a good idea to have
your auction extend over Sunday evenings because it is a very
busy time.
Learning About Optional Photo Hosting Services for High
Quality Photos eBay allows you to host one photo per auction free
of charge. This is a great service, but unfortunately the photos
are not very clear. To get the clearest photos possible, find a
photo hosting service. Some free and easy to use options are
http:// www.photobucket.com and http://www.webphoto.com There are
also low cost, reliable options like http://www.villagephoto.com
It is a good idea to use a photo hosting service along with the
free eBay photo in case one of the services "goes down." This way
people can still see some type of photo for the auction.
Studying The Paper Piecing Auction Market
To see which paper piecings are selling the best, go to
http://www.eBay and type "paper piecing" in the search box.
When the search results page comes up, click on "Highest Priced
First." This will allow you to browse through the best-selling
auctions. Take notes. Note which themes and styles are selling
well and try to come up with original designs that fit into those
themes/styles. You can also click on "Completed Items" to see
what the end price was for recently listed auctions.
Copyright Issues
Did you know that each time you create an original paper piecing
it automatically has copyright protection? You do not need to
register a creation to have it protected.
It is a good idea to put a notice with your auctions when it
is an original design. If you are using a pattern from a
Tole/Pattern book, you should not use a copyright notice. A basic
copyright notice looks like this:
Copyright 2002 Your Name Here
This also means that all of those other original paper
piecings that are listed on eBay are protected. It is okay to
browse around and get ideas and inspiration, but you should never
make copies of paper piecing that you see.
