A Picture is worth a thousand words and more

When listing items for sale to eBay always remember that your prospective customer will not have the opportunity to touch, hold and feel your item. Instead they will only have what you write about the item and the pictures you provide with your listing.


Providing your bidder with a large number of pictures accomplish many things for you the seller. First it lets the bidder know of some of the details of the product...if it is a shirt and a picture of the back is provide the picture can let the bidder know if the shirt has any designs on the back of shirt or not.


Another benefit that sellers do not think often about is that the more pictures you have on your listing the more likely that bidder will stay and look at your listing. the more time they (bidders) look at your listing the more likely they (bidder) are to bid or complete a BIN purchase.


Ebay now offers everyone 12 FREE pictures for every listing and this makes the argument of having multiple pictures for a listing not being cost-effective not a valid argument anymore. So the next time you list your item for sale try and include on a minimum at least six quality pictures to include with your item to be listed. A picture is worth a thousand words and maybe even worth a thousand dollars.
