Don't you just love ebay

[jim8flog]

I never stop to be amazed sometimes by the prices I get on ebay.

I always keep the balls I have used for a couple of rounds and when there are enough to make a decent quantity I flog them on ebay for practice use.

I put two dozen on ebay, absolute bidding war and I get back nearly half of the price I paid for them new.

I sell all my old gear on Ebay. It's a lottery, sometimes I sell a club for more than I paid for it, other times it doesn't sell until I repeat the listing a couple of times. But it really helps pay for the new gear and means my outlay is not exceptionally high.

Their fees are horrendous, though.

Agreed

The 10% final value fee is too high.. 5% max and PayPal fee? Sod off.. should be free

5% total fee would still make them millions

I sold my old M4, 3 wood a few months ago for £20 more than I paid for it. It was a year old. To be fair it was in excellent condition and I’d used it about twice

Wow!

Most people would just throw that into the rubbish tip.

Wait for the offers like maximum £1 fees....you can save a fortune.
Had a selling spree last autumn and shifted nearly 1500 quids worth and instead of costing 150 it set me back less than a tenner

I like how he added the word 'retro' to try and appeal to the hipster market.

I suspect that's where it will end up

I could not even give my 32" 100 Sony 100hz one away. It took two of use to be able to lift it in to the car and get it out the tip.

I baught some protein bars. 12 for £20. They where rank. I decided to sell 11 of them on ebay and got £21. What's crazy is there where plenty at a "buy now" price of £20!!!!!!

 

[ScienceBoy]

Love it, paid and made on it over the years.

I often find the Xmas holidays is a good time as I am off work but at home so use the time to sell stuff I dont use. Sometimes I get a good deal on stuff, sometimes it goes cheap. I always start off at £1, no matter what I am selling and let the buyers decide the price.

Recently they seem to have been doing the £1 max selling fee fairly frequently - I have sold a bit of golf & other stuff & paid low fee (Paypal not part of the offer).

They did it but they didn't tell me I had to accept the offer

I sold my stuff within the dates but because I didn't click activate offer I had to pay

Cheeky

Surely that doesn't include the final value fee?

That is the final value fee. Sometimes they have max 2%.

Of course you still get normal Paypal fees but it is a big saving.
