Many people get nervous about buying something used from an internet online auction. The better sellers on eBay use a rating scale for declaring the quality of used items sold on auction. The condition of items whether new or used, is important for communication between the buyer and seller. The rating scale tells if the item is in new, like new, very good, good, acceptable or unacceptable condition. When bidding on a used item, the condition can help in deciding on a price to bid for an item.

Sell by Lots

If you have two or more of one item, you can list it as a “lot.” For example, if you had five bottles of suntan lotion purchased from a salvage store for .50 each, and you decided to list them on eBay for $1.00 each, rather than list each one separately, another option is to sell them as a lot. Often times, people perform their search based on lots. However, if you had one bottle of suntan lotion, one bottle of regular lotion, and one bottle of aloe vera, you would want to list them as their own item.
