We Sell on eBay for YOU!
What does it take for us to sell your Goodies on eBay? Bring your items to Paul's Shop and we will do all the hard work. We will take great photos, create the listings, work with potential buyers answering questions, processing payments, carefully pack the items and shipping the order. After the item is paid for and shipped, a check will be made to you within 2 weeks of the sale.
How long does this all take?
The whole selling process can take from about 3 weeks to a couple of months. It just depends on the item and how well it sells
Each listing is a 10-day listing with eBay Gallery. 10-Days is the maximum allowable auction time on eBay.
What is the minimum Price of items I can sell?
Items, or lots of item need to have a value of $50 or more.
The opening bid is set by the customer. We will never list any item for less than you are willing to receive back from the sale. For example, if an item could sell for about $100-$200, and you absolutely want at least $100 for it, then that would be the price you should set. We will do the basic research to make sure the item has a good chance to sell for the amount you desire.
If desired We can add a Buy-It-Now price to each auction at no charge. This is a price you can set that someone can end the auction immediately and buy the item now! Once a bid is placed on an item, the Buy it now goes away and you have to wait for the auction to end.
All fees are taken out post sale. No payment up front is needed.
Once we do the basic research on the item value, it is up to you if you want to go ahead with the listing or not. There is no charge for our preliminary research. Once you give the word and want us to list items or do more in depth research, a minimum fee will be charged.

The charges for selling an item are the Listing Fee + Commission .
Listing Fees
The Listing Fee (like a classified ad) is $10 for each item or lot of items.
Our commission is based on the following rates
Ø Item sells between $0.00 and $100.00 = $30 Fixed
Ø Item sells between $100.01 and $1000.00 = 30%
Ø Item sells between $1000.01 and $2000.00 = 25%
Ø Item sells between $2000.01 and $5000.00 = 20%
Ø Item sells between $5000.01 and $7500.00 = 15%
Ø Item sells between $7500.01 and $12500.00 = 10%
The minimum commission fee is $30
Other optional fees (Not required, but they are in addition to the basic listing services. You will incur an extra charge for these services)
Ø Reserve Fees up to $200 = $3.00
Ø Reserve Fees over $200 = 3% of Reserve
Ø Bold eBay Listing = $5.00
Ø Listing Border = $5.00
Here is an example of an Auction and how it works You bring in an item with an approximate worth of $75-$125. The item is put up for auction and you started the price at $50, with no other optional fees.
The item sells for $100 even (much easier to explain with even numbers!)
Our commission will be $30 plus the $10 listing fee
You will receive $60 Total (Sale price minus Listing & Commission Fees)
