Default ebay account

Hi all,

I need to set up an ebay account to sell my 18" Rota GR-A wheels which nobody showed interest in on Pistonheads.

Is setting up a selling account on ebay free and quite easy?
I realise I'll have to pay for the advert of course.


Many thanks,

Matty

Its free to set up an account yes and like you say you have to pay a % of the sale price in fee's.

The issue you'll have is noone will go near them if you're a newly registered user with no feedback.

If you need to get rid of them quickly get a mate to sell on their ebay account, otherwise get one yourself and buy a few things to get some positive feedback them whack them on in a month or so's time, otherwise you'll get substantially less for them being an unknown new user if they sell a tall.

Yep, very simple and free.
If you've got a posh phone you can download the ebay apps for free and sell via them.

Good point. Thank you for the advice. I did sell a set years ago on someone elses account.
