I have been selling and buying on ebay since 1999

#1 Lots of tag words !! People have to pull it up in a search . Put something like "traxxas emaxx tranny , not tmaxx,revo,mgt "

#2 99 percent of the time I list my auctions on saturday between 10:00 and 2:00
I know that sounds silly but I have found that when you make sure people can be around when the auction is ending it tends to go up in the last 30 seconds.

#3 Search before you list . If theres 10 already on there ,then wait to list it or price it a few dollars less then closed auctions.
I would rather sell something today for 30.00 then wait a week to sell it for 33.00 .
I look at closed auctions to get going rates . If there all selling between 40 and 60 then price accordingly . 42 sells right away, 58 might not sell. Your choice.

#4 Selling is still a job , do your research first and you will do better in the end.

If it makes you feel better I have sold stuff for WAYYYYY less then I paid for it ! DOH !!! It does happen sometimes.
Dont worry if theres no bids or it stays low . I personally never bid until the end and most of the people I know do the same.
