Hey I have some rainguards I am selling some of you may have seen them. I am having some problems getting them seen.
One major problem is there is no listing for the GT Four sub model at least not for US posts. A friend that also sells on e-bay suggested
putting JDM in the title, but the part is mine and not actually JDM. Any tips? E-bay is really a rip off for sellers they charge 9% for selling
which is really outragous imo, I didn't even make that back in the day when I sold electonics for commision only. Right now I am getting 100 views
in 10 days, for 9% I would hope for a little more exposure than that. I am new to e-bay selling so any pointers would be helpful.

well i have more that 100 sales, been using paypal for 5 years now, and its their recent increase in commission that made it whole sour.

I sold a go cart and the commission was 30 bucks, i was mad. It had never been so high.

so thats the last time i sold any sh!t in there.

i still buy though. but will never sell, i rather throw the things away, unless its something rare, and can get a good chunk, ebay its not worth it to me

The best part is when the buyer starts some sh*t to try to get even more from you. Then you're paying eBay to stick up for the buyer who is screwing you over. I stopped selling there over a year ago. Like you said, good for buying but not selling.

Randy, it's too bad you aren't having good luck selling on eBay. How many rain guards do you have left? You might be able to sell the rest over time on here or gt4oc.net.

Edit: Well, this is ironic. Just checked my email from my iPhone and look what I got.
