| Haven't been on this form in ages, kinda got out of collecting for a while never stopped buying but have cut way back and am way behind on my reading. Any way I am having a bit of a clear out and have put about 20 or 30 comics on ebay for sale, generally at €1 each and then the shipping cost €1.50 to Ireland and €3 to europe. Apart from the fact the the shipping price is to low ( it is costing me €3 to post not including the packing to the UK) I am getting ripped on ebay and paypal. Its 0.15 cent every time i list a comic wether or not it sells and each time I sell one at €4 including shipping they take o.49cent. thus it is costing me to sell them instead of a few extra coins in my back pocket. Any advice would be greatly accepted. All the stuff im selling Modernern from the last year or so. Just in case you are wondering.

Yuuuuup....Problem when starting your prices low.....I always start my auctions at the price I'd be happy to get for it...Doesn't always sell but then usually relisting someone will pick it up next time round which I get refunded on (listing fees) because the auction sold.
So upping your price on the comic is a good idea. Maybe also charge for your bubble/cardboard as well but that is all (no other "handling fees" though)..so then you're not losing out on that to because that is a geniune cost.
If you want have a mixture of some cheap comics and some at a price you'd like.

Why are you charging less for shipping than it costs you? As a buyer, I have no problem paying shipping fees if they're for the actual cost. I also see no reason that you shouldn't add a little bit to the shipping price for your supplies. That's totally reasonable. It seems silly for you to charge less than half what it's actually costing you to ship these things.
