Elizabeth makes a good point about packing. In every case that I received items that were damaged in shipment, the sellers (most of who had excellent feedback and lots if it) said it was all the shippers fault. That's BS most of the time. Packages get handled and dropped - that's a given, but if the items were packaged with the care Elizabeth describes, using boxes suited to the size/weight, it will eliminate 90% of the damage in shipment. Furthermore, the extra care required is a lot easier than dealing with claims and returns.
Hints on how to sell on A'gon?
I've been buying stuff on A'gon for a few months, and - inevitably - now I need to sell some stuff. Having looked at several thousand ads, I've developed a sense of what appeals to me (pictures, clear and honest descriptions, links to more info) and what doesn't (hype, opaque language, non-existent zip-codes).
But I wonder if any of you more experienced A'goners might offer tips on the best way to get stuff sold. In particular, I wonder if there are particular days of the week or months of the year that are especially good for A'gon sales. But any advice would be welcome. Thanks.
