So,
you’ve just registered an eBay account and decided to sell your BlackBerry on eBay.
What do you do?
It’s
a very good place to sell because you’re already familiar with the community
there. You have the capability of reaching out to millions of people and closing
a deal easily.
Selling
a smartphone is something that’s not easily learned. eBay can be a very chaotic
place, and when you think about it, it’s just better to pass down your phone to
your younger sibling!
But
why pass it down when you have the chance to make some money out of it? That’s
especially true when you’re upgrading to a new phone. Selling your BlackBerry
will help you with the costs of buying a new one!
If
you’re looking for some tips, then follow these:
Make Full Use of Your Item Title
When
it comes to advertising your smartphone, always present the most important
details up front.
Include
important keywords that will make searching easier for potential buyers. For
example, always include the brand and model number in the title. Also, try to
add descriptive words, such as “mint.” This allows users to know that your
phone is shiny.
Use Quality Photos
Like
a car salesman that gives a good look to the car being sold, it’s also your
responsibility to give potential buyers a good look at your phone.
Take
quality pictures of the phone’s screen, back and other sides. It’s important
you give a good presentation of the phone.
And
while you’re at it, post some sample photographs taken from your phone’s
camera.
Describe Your Phone in Detail
Aside
from putting in nice photographs, it’s important to put in a detailed
description of your phone.
For
example, what processor does it have? Is the phone unlocked or tied to a
specific carrier? All of these details should be answered when describing your
item.
You
should also include the date when you bought it.
Research the Price
Before
you go into any actual selling, it’s important to research the price of your
phone. You can do a search within the network of eBay. You’ll get a good idea
how much a typical smartphone sells there.
You
can also research outside eBay, such as forums and even ask the opinion of your
friends. The key is to make it reasonable without actually being overpriced.
Nobody is going to buy an overpriced phone, unless it was used by a celebrity
or some other famous person.
Immediately Reply
From
time to time, you’ll get specific inquiries made about your phone. It’s
important that you answer all of it immediately because it shows your genuine
interest in getting your phone sold.
Aside
from that, it’s also a sign of respect because you’re not wasting the buyer’s
time.
Conclusion
These
tips are all you should follow when selling your BlackBerry on eBay. All in
all, it’s very easy to sell once you get used to the process. Eventually,
you’ll be selling like crazy!
