So, I just bought a big Lizardmen lot off eBay for about $230. It contained (all new in box) an OOP Lizardmen Battalion box, Carnosaur box, Bastilidon box, Saurus Cavalry box, Saurus Warriors box and Skink box. I'm thinking that I'm going to give my hand at painting these up really nicely and selling them off on eBay for a decent mark-up. My goal would to make around $600 and up. I'll probably sell them in smaller unit sets though. That way I don't get raped by someone under bidding and flying under the radar.
What do you guys think? Does anyone have much experience with this? I've never sold anything on eBay, so I'd appreciate any good advice.
Couple of things to watch out for.
1. Always send items signed for, never send it without, trust me it's worth it.
2. Don't guess at postage costs, apply the correct postage cost to your listing
3. In the listing put a disclaimer about damage and feedback etc, something like this,
**Please note**
All items will be well packed but accidents do happen during the postal system, I cannot be held responsible for any damage occurred and usually a spot of superglue will fix any issues.
New ebay members with less than 20 feedback please message me before bidding or I reserve the right to cancel your bid.
Please see my other listings and I will always combine postage for purchases.
Happy bidding and good luck
4. Take the full allocation of free pictures and describe it well, a good title will get people looking, when I sold Arkhan I did this,
**Age Of Sigmar, Arkhan the Black, Death Rattle, Pro Painted, Must see Item** then in your first line of the description put this.
Although I'm not a Pro painter these models are painted as good as those that claim to be "pro painted" on ebay.
