Auction or Fixed Price?

When listing products, you have a choice to make — Auction or Fixed Price?  The answer depends on what you are selling.

Here are some guildelines:

If your item is:

  • Rare
  • Unique
  • One-of-a-kind
  • Collectible
  • Current Trend
  • Used

You probably should use an Auction Listing.

If your item is:

  • New
  • Sold for a consistent price
  • Available “everywhere”
  • Not likely to garner enough bids to make it up to your preferred price

You probably should use a Fixed Price Listing.
