Best Buy and Sell Apps for Used Stuff

Best for: auction-style sales.

Well-known for its auction-style sales, eBay also offers other selling formats where you can sell everything from clothing to electronics to baby gear to cars. If you decide to sell through an auction, simply choose a starting price and watch as interested buyers place bids. The buyer with the highest bid at the end of the auction window wins the sale. Auctions can run for either one, three, five, seven or 10 days. You can even select to relist unsold items automatically.

The other option for selling is to use eBay’s fixed-price format, “Buy It Now,” which lets buyers make a purchase instantly. If you’re worried your price is too high, opt to let buyers make you an offer to make room for negotiating. Most listing are free, but sales will incur a final value fee that is calculated at a percent of the final selling price and varies depending on the item. For instance, the final value fee for clothing, shoes and accessories that sell for under $100 is calculated at 10.2% of the item’s sale price, but it’s free for items that sell over $100.

Select your preferred delivery option, from local pickup to shipping within the U.S. or internationally. To make shipments easy and affordable, purchase and print your shipping labels through eBay and you will get a discount from the shipping carriers it works with.
