You can see the completed listings by signing in to your Ebay account and searching for your item.  Then check the “Completed Listings” box to see recently ended listings.

Click the Completed Listings Box in the left column

You’ll see the actual results of recent listings.  Now, take some time and look at the successful listings and see if there’s anything that looks like it might help get that sale and possibly raise the price.  There might be good sales copy.  There might be crystal clear, high-resolution images.  Maybe it sold because free shipping was offered.

Completed Listings Results

Next, take a look at some of the listings that weren’t successful.  Was it missing a detailed description?  Were questions left unanswered?  Does the seller have poor feedback?

You can learn a ton just by paying attention to history.  Give it a try!
