Ebay "Auctioneer" to sell my stuff for a commission

[rmelly]

Hi,

I have some stuff I want to dispose of via Ebay but don't want to go to the hassle of doing the selling (lazy).

Does anyone know of any service available where I can get someone else to sell my items (take photos, add the ebay listings, handle postage etc), and take a commission from the sale price as payment for the service provided.

Items in question are collectibles which generally sell, some more rare than others etc.

Great, thanks - thats exactly what I am looking for. Has anyone used them? I'll mail to see what the payment structure is.

What about getting an internet-savvy teenager (neighbour, nephew etc) to do it for you? Probably cheaper....

I considered that, but my nephew is only 6 months old... only kidding. I have noticed from reviewing ebay that the item descriptions and all the other crap have play a big part in differentiating items and the prices they get. For example auctions for 10 identical items the sale price can range from EUR 150 to EUR 250, so I reckon these guys would do a better job. I plan to do a trial run of a few of the items and see how it goes.
