As a homeschooling mom you get really proficient at buying and selling curriculum online. My website of choice was always eBay because it seemed that it had more traffic then other sites and garnered me more money for my books. \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n

Due to circumstances beyond my control I had put my 3 children back in school however, my last one that is in High School is now begging me to home school her for her remaining 3 years…so it is off to eBay I go.<\/p>\n

I figured since I’ve done this so many times before why not help others with selling their items on eBay as well.<\/p>\n

\"step1\"Research pricing<\/strong>
\nDetermine what your item is worth. There is nothing more discouraging then listing an item and not getting one bite on it. I’ve watched this happen over and over again \u00a0and one of the reasons is because sellers price their items a lot higher than what people are willing to pay.<\/p>\n

I actually have a home schooling book that I have been meaning to sell so I’m going to go through the steps I take in order to sell this book. The book is called Exploring Creation with Physical Science<\/em>. (NOTE<\/span><\/strong>: Trying to sell homeschooling books in March is not the smartest thing to do, most parents are still focused on the current school year and not quite ready to tackle next year)<\/p>\n

Before I get started I like to do a little bit of Research to find out how much the same item has sold for in the past.<\/p>\n

I head over to eBay.com and type in “Exploring Creation with Physical Science” in the search bar, hit enter and I see a list of 65 active listings. In order to see what similar items have sold for<\/strong> click on the Completed listings<\/p>\n

\"sold-listings\"
\nThis will show you all the listings that actually sold the item.<\/p>\n

\"step2\"Take good pictures of your item (you get to use up to 12 images for Free)<\/strong><\/p>\n

The reason I do this next step is I’ve been caught on to many occasions where I got all my information just right and didn’t have an image of the item. I had to stop what I was doing and go take the picture. If you already have the image taken and edited, it will be so much easier to just drop it in your listing as you are going along.<\/p>\n

\"step3\"List your Item to Sell<\/strong><\/p>\n
