Just a comment, Casey... Been a subscriber for several years, but I don't watch every video (I simply don't have enough time in my day!). A little over 2 months ago, you had a video where you suggested putting the Item Description in the Condition Field. That made a lot of sense, and I have been implemented it throughout my 2000+ item store--see why I don't have time to watch every video? Anyway, this change has DEFINITELY changed my business. Thank You!
Thanks for sharing how you run your weekly sales. I haven't really found a good rhythm with that, so I am going to try the Mon-Fri and weekend setup you discussed. 😊
Question for you. I’ve stopped sending out offers to those “watching” my items because I want to be able to up my prices to be able to mark it down 50% for a Black Friday sale. Can’t change prices when offers are outstanding. Is that the correct way to go? Thanks!
@@tammyclelland right you can’t make changes once it has pending. You would have to end the item to be able to edit. Usually tho I only have a few offers out at any given time. So I just edit all the ones I can (98%) and the others are fine they have interest they can stay
@ thanks for very quick response! I have to just add that I have been selling on eBay for 20 years in various capacities, and became a FT seller just this year. While I follow a few resellers on YT, your tips have by far helped me the most. I greatly appreciate you! Have a great & profitable holiday week!!
I want to say the video on promoted you made recently was eye opening for me and very easy to understand. My question on this I may have missed it is this do I have super inflated prices for a couple days? Or do you inflate and then decrease immediately following?
I was and still am one that doesn't know all the ebay short cuts haha. Ebay is great for some things and then shopify is great for things. Shopify is annoying to go through your products though. only lists like 25 a page. Good luck everyone! Gear up!
@@RockstarFlipper We can schedule the Black Friday sale, correct?.....just like any other sale. That's a great feature (the ability to schedule). I'm guessing not - but, is there way to schedule when a price change will take effect? - Thx
@@RockstarFlipper Thx, but thinking I was not clear. I realize the date & time of a Sale Event can be scheduled. I am asking, however, when I initially double my prices, can THAT be scheduled? I went thru the motions & don't see a scheduling option for that.

@@colbywhetstone5126 you can turn off your offers anytime. Bulk edit listings. Best off. Turn off But why? Run the sale. And take offers. Price accordingly.
Hey man, you say you do a sales event from Black Friday to Sunday, then another one the following week. How is this possible? I thought that you have to have 2 weeks between sales events regarding each listing? Like you can’t have two sales events per listing within 2 weeks of that event.
Negative. you can have as many sales as you want anytime you want.. Not sure who told you that, but its false. I run sales day after day (24 hours is the miniimum length) thats it
@@RockstarFlipper It must be different here in the UK. This is on ebay's 'Sale Events' FAQ page; Bear in mind 'Listings need to have been listed at the pre-sale price for at least 14 days before your sale event' 'Items can be included in your sale for a maximum of 14 days. After this they will need to be excluded for a further 14 days before they can be re-added.' So anything I upload as of yesterday, I won't be able to add to a sale event for example, black friday because I will have to wait till the 1st of December. So annoying!
Sounds interesting but not sure it is good to do, especially for items with watchers. Though, all the brick and mortar stores do the exact same practice. For example, the store manager purchases 100,000 designer shirts for $2.00 each; they sell to you for $100.00; then they have a "black friday sale" and mark it at 60% off. This is the exact same principle. All the stores do this, as they understand consumer behaviour.
I was actually going to ask this same question about watchers. Are watchers notified when the price increases? Wouldn't this offend watchers who see this "fake" sale?
@@newtongirl2430 no. Don’t worry about that. Not that I’m aware of. They get notified of a sale. But an increase. And if they did oh well, other buyers who just now find it will buy it
I did this last night and already ran into a problem. Listed 51 items and for some reason on a few of them, the original price did not change. I figured it out this morning because someone sent me an offer for $63 on a $150 item that was supposed to be set at $300 and then marked down 50%. That’s when I realized the item was listed with an original price of $150 and sale price of $75. I’m still not sure as to why those items prices didn’t get doubled. Probably operator error. Has anyone else had this issue?
Hints & Tips: The word you're looking for is "responsively" not "respectfully" when referring to the order of things. Also, "ad nauseam" is a Latin phrase that means something that's been discussed over and over, not at nauseam although it may seem like it makes you nauseous. It's a different word.
If you have sneakers that you don't want to have to authenticated, would doubling the price trigger the authentication process or does the sale price trigger it. I'm not selling fake shoes but I've heard a lot of complaints about the wait time and if you miss one little thing, eBay can reject them. Since I don't have a lot of money invested in the shoes, it doesn't hurt to sell them under $75. Thanks for the help.
Can someone here help me with a question I have? I'm sure I'm doing something wrong. When I look up my item screen that a buyer would see, the shipping says $7 something, BUT when I made my listing I used my eBay savings amount for the buyer. It's got to be something in my business policy but I can't figure it out. If the buyer sees the $7 something, no wonder they aren't buying!
Are you doing calculated? And what do you mean you used the "ebay savings amount" for the buyer. you either selected free, calculated or flat rate... no clue what an "ebay saving amount" is
@@RockstarFlipper eBay gives sellers a discount on shipping, and the option to pass it on to the buyers. I do calculated shipping. Shipping is based on their zone of course. It said the buyer sees the discount, but I'm wondering if they only see it when they are paying. When I go look up something I listed (as if I am a buyer) they are shown the full price, not the discount.
@ correct they are shown the actual calculated price. Not any discounts. That discount is for you. Stop passing it on. You want to make money or give it away?
I tried this - the 100% increase did not automatically update, but the 50% off price did - I just sold 2 items WAY BELOW what I wanted (one will be a loss). I am now trying to undo what happened here. I am afraid to cancel the 2 sales because I don't want to get dinged. Lesson learned.
And so you don't think your instructions were amiss? That it's OK to assume everyone would know to wait? I believe you started the video stating even experienced resellers didn't know about the bulk edit. And then you assume....ever hear the adage about the word "assume"?
I had 2 sales before my price increase took effect - 1 will be a loss. I am beside myself. I guess you shouldn't put the sale in effect until ALL items have increased.
It’s great to run a 50% off sale, but if like most eBay users sorting by cheapest price, it will make no difference. Plus, this is a lot of effort - how about just having good inventory that is reasonably promoted at a sellable price? There is not need for this “hack”.
When you back the price to 50% off people still expect you to give them an offer. Do you do that? Would you recommend writing that further discounts do not apply?
I increased my listings by 100%. My sale is over and i would like my prices to go back tk where they were. When i lower by the 100% it goes to a penny for every item. How do i fix this?
If an item was $40 and you doubled it to $80 (100% incresed) in order to go back to $40, you have to decrease by 50%. but every item is going to be different. gotta do the math
