eBay Picture Porn~!

Ok,

So check it out, over the course of my eBay selling expereince, at some point I had a revelation. This revelation is so key, that it deserves its own post~!

I realized, that if I want to sell items, I need to make the items I am selling, so good that people are drooling over the opportunity, the things I am selling and the quality of their photos need to be comprable to porn~!

As whatever as it may sound, its totally TRUE~!

Here are a few examples of the type of pictures I am talking about:

I sold these Ping i3 Blades For a Friend of Mine~!



And These Diesel Jeans I just sold for a client~!




So what I really find to be the key in taking these naughty pictures, is SUNLIGHT~!


I find that regardless of the item, there is a time in the day that the sun will make any item shine~!
The job of the person selling the item, is to find that time of day and take the best pictures possible, from the necessary camera angles. However, I would like everyone to benefit from my experience, so what I learned the hard way was, make sure you don't take a million pictures, because if you do, you are going to be sorting through serial numbers and its going to take you forever to put together a listing~!

So in short, take pictures that will make the buyer drool, but do your best to take just a few from each angle and label them as soon as possible, because if you don't, you will be shooting yourself in the foot when it comes time to create the listing~!

And speaking of creating listings, that should create a nice segway into a my next blog, which will be about, listing services and tools out there to help you list your item in an attractive and appealing way~!

Have a Beautiful Evening,

Peace and Light,
