why do items starting low on ebay do better?

[Deano]

I have had a look at a few gold items on ebay.

1 necklace started at 49.99 and got 0 bids on it.

The same necklace was relisted at £9.99 and got over £69.99 how is this?

Wouldn't it of just been sensible for the people that had a bid the second time round to have just had ago the first time, and they might of even got it cheaper?

Is it a mind thing, or does it just seem to entice bidders into a frenzy, if the auction if an item is started at a price well below its recommended price?

Also items that have very low or no p&p tend to sell at a much higher price.

Why does this seem to happen?

Due to potato.

Because people probaly started at those price which good or bad either way

If you are listing your item with the cost of £0.99 or £9.99 the item visibility is very high rather than actual price.
You listed your item with the cost of £9.99 so visibility is high now that mean more people can see you because of that only you got more bids. and your item has been sold.
Try with £0.99 you will get good response.

Happy selling.....
