As a customer, are these potential things you would buy?

I am new to Ebay, because I need to earn some money before Payday.

I need the money desperately because my tire just went flat.

I thought that if I sold my laptop, that people would want it.

It is only $150 and all it needs is a new O.S. So, it needs to be fixed with a manufacterous disk.

I put up a very expensive Human Antomy textbook for only 40 dollars. It cost me $350.

I am selling a Fruists Basket Manga.

And two other texts books that any college student would want. So, why don't want people want my stuff? If you were a customer, would you buy them?

And if not, why?

Have you ever sold on Ebay before?

    Well I personally don't want any of these items so I wouldn't bid on them. I've sold hundreds of things on Ebay over the past 12 years & bought hundreds of things too (1422 transactions 100% positive feedback).

    People may well bid on your auctions but they have days to go yet before the auctions end, 29 days on one of the books. I never bid until the last 20 seconds of an auction. Bidding early just pushes the price up if someone outbids you. Your may well have the starting bid too high. By listing the laptop at a starting bid of $100 you are paying quite an insertion fee to Ebay unless you had a free listing day?

    I am willing to bet that someone would snag up your laptop for $150. That's something I would buy for my kids in high school. Lots of people need laptops but can't afford to buy them new, and you'd be really surprised at what people will buy! Best of luck selling your stuff.
