Why not Sell Internationally on eBay? |
|
|
One of the incredible aspects about eBay can be demonstrated by
the volumes involved.
Currently, there are 168 million eBay members - people who have
registered to buy and/or sell. eBay.com is currently the 10th
most visited site on the internet as measured by
http://www.alexa.com. In the UK, www.eBay.co.uk is 102 on the
alexa list.
The USA auction market is around ten times the size of the UK
market. (Based on the number of items on auction at the time of
writing - 1,105,667 on UK eBay and 11,025,326 on eBay.com)
In fact eBay has 27 |
|
|
|
different country sites.
If you're a seller, it may pay you to consider making your items
available to the wider eBay market. Of course you need to
consider issues such as delivery costs, export and import
regulations and other matters. But if your items can be easily
packaged, or are digital, and if the winners anyway are paying
for the postage, you really should consider making them
available to eBay bidders world-wide.
The way you do this is relatively easy. When completing the Sell
pages to create an auction, on the Shipping page, either tick
the box that says "Will post worldwide", or check the |
|
countries
to whom you wish your item to be made available.
You should also give an idea in your auction description of the
shipping costs relating to the countries you are willing to post
to.
Selling internationally doesn't cost any more in terms of fees,
and it exposes your item to a massive new market.
Definitely worth a try with the right items.
