Here's a 10x10 freezer bag half filled with assortment of beads Wood, plastic, and glass beads. Buyer pays 5.00 shipping thru paypal or mail and I'll pay the rest.
Questions & Comments
I see the wood ones, but are any of the smaller ones glass or are they mostly plastic?
that's a nice lot! I can't really understand why you aren't getting bids or watchers, but if you don't get any you might want to sort out the larger beads as a separate lot, and take more closeup photos. I'd also recommend you use a white background instead of black for your photos.
You can also take the listing down now and re-list it, but as soon as you get a bid you're kinda stuck ...
I'll see how it goes this way if I don't get any bids than I'll do that. But someone sent a message and said she was going to bid on it, so we'll see what happens.
That's encouraging news, but not if you only end up with one bid. It's still your option to take it down, divide it up into several lots or possibly tiered lots, and take better photos. The photos make a huge difference with stuff like this .. people buy beads because they are beautiful mostly, I think ...
I think the $5.00 shipping is keeping people from bidding. Do you do combined shipping if more than 2 of your auctions are won? Will you do free shipping over a certain amount? I would like to bid on some of your auctions but that $5.00 shipping is holding me back. Alot of people go more for the free shipping or no more than $2.00 or $3.00 shipping.
It might be possible to fit them into a Small Flat Rate Envelope. If it does, then it would only cost $4.90 and you wouldn't have to pay any extra (or be able to lower the shipping to the winner).
