Title: Anyone have some advice for a new seller?
Post by: bready on June 04, 2013, 10:21 pm
Hi guys,

I have bought from SR for the last six months and decided I wanted to sell on here as well. 

I am currently selling 30 MG IR addies but not getting any bites.  I have my listing price a little under what everyone else is selling for.

Any advice to help me get some sales so I can build up some good feedback?

On a side note, I rigorously studied the forums on proper discreet shipping techniques before taking the plunge of becoming a seller ;)

Most new vendors have to give away, or practically give away, some number of samples, to generate feedback.  It's hard to get the first few customers because with no feedback, people have to risk the unknown.  I like to order small amounts from new vendors, because their prices are usually good, and sometimes you find a great new source, but addies aren't my thing. It won't take too many though, just enough to show that your packaging won't get anyone arrested and that your products are legit. Good luck.
