Interesting Memory

[mikeinreco]

On auctions I tend to have a start price I will be happy with selling at. Most of my listings are just "Buy iit Now".


My quick calculations make me think you would have been better off selling on one of the buyers on the forum.



I did recently sell some ram on ebay hopefully this link works. 3 lbs Lot of Scrap RAM Memory for Gold Recovery Expedited Shipping | eBay

Thanks for sharing your experience. Its this sharing that helps all those who take the time to read and learn. 73 Mike

the only difference I see is that you must have started your auction at a higher price.......Mine was an experiment to see if the thick stuff would bring more money so the only way I saw to get a fair market value was to start at .99........All good and glad you sold yours MIKE!!!!!!!!!!!

Cool. I also was testing the market to see I I could improve on the price I get from my buyer since gold has gone up recently. I did not get what I consider a worth while price. Its just so much easier to send off to my buyers knowing all is well. On eBay there are risks that a buyer can ripe you off and it be a total loss plus the costs of shipping.

My response was "intended" to show more evidence of the market on ebay for scrap ram. I know is Mike is very experienced but I did include statements and information that I consider important for inexperienced folks to know. I have not mentioned this before but I do tend to answer questions or make comments directed not just at the individual but also the rest of the readers. I may have come off as if I was assuming Mike couldn't do the the math no so.

Ebay pushes hard to start auctions at 99 cents. I am not starting at that price for any of my items. The difference in my mind is generally what I sell is used stuff that not everyone needs. Because of this I run most as buy now, for 10 days with auto relist X 2. That gives me a month of near the top of the lists. With auctions my starting price is the least I am willing to accept for an item that way I am not disappointed.

I will say again its great that members here share what works and what does not do as well. 73, Mike
