on my items:


http://search.ebay.com/_W0QQsassZflwrpowr


can you tell me - am I missing key words? Do I need better descriptions? It doesn't seem I am even getting people to the auctions.


I have more to post (purses!!) but I dont want to waste time and money if I can't get anyone there....advice?

Hmm I'm not much help but maybe add more in your decription and try lowering the starting bid.  That is the only thing I can think of.  Maybe people think starting at a certain price is too high but if you have multiple people bidding and it gets up to your starting bid now then people will bid because they think its more desirable.


This is why I have yet to post anything on ebay.  I'm afraid of not getting bids!

make the description more precise and i think that adding common words help too (like, japan, diy, anthropologie... things like that)

I hate to be a buzz kill or the ebay police, but unless the item is from anthropologie, that is against policy & they can pull your listing:

Keyword spamming occurs when members place brand names or other inappropriate keywords in a title or description for the purpose of gaining attention or diverting members to a listing. Keyword spamming in listings is not permitted on eBay. The text sellers place in listings must be directly relevant to the item being sold.

Violations of this policy may result in a range of actions, including:

* Listing cancellation
* Limits on account privileges
* Account suspension
* Forfeit of eBay fees on cancelled listings
* Loss of PowerSeller status

I only mention it because once when I was listing something it stopped it & asked "was i sure" about my wording because it was suspicious. WTF??

Your listings look great. I might have to break my shopping ban....

Your stuff is so great.  I wish I had some suggestions for you, but I cant really think of anything.  Whenever I look for jewelry, I use stuff like, "unique, beaded, wood, vintage."


On a side note, I bought the wood earrings!  Im excited, they look awesome.   Good luck! :)
