Can you explain how you do this? Do you assign a number to each item upon purchasing?
Hi folks,
I spent some time on Sunday re-designing my store site. I had been waiting for GarageSale to release a new template that allowed more customization than some their other templates and would let me do the changes I wanted.
Would love any constructive feedback on the presentation.
1. developed a wall paper based on a base of a brown paper bag, with a repeating pattern of clothing outlines
2. New Header/Logo
3. New layout with T&Cs at the side (all ebay frames and headers turned off)
I'm also dinking around with the first image of the listing. It always bugs me that it gets letterboxed so I've starting cropping an image in a square to completely fill the ebay photo placeholder in the top part of the description. It also appears larger than a traditional landscape image if you're looking at it in a search list, but not as big an image in Portrait.
At any rate, here's a listing with a square image:

And here's one done the old way with an image straight from the camera

Again, feedback on look/feel/content or anything that helps me improve I will gratefully accept.

Believe it or not, while I probably have one of the most extensive inventory "collections" in this group, I have no orderly inventory system in place. I basically memorize where I put everything.

+1, I was going to say the same thing.My $0.02: First off, your pages look really great! On my computer, the square image looks better. On my iPhone, the rectangular image looks better. Considering a lot of people search eBay on their phones, I would just stick with the photo straight from your camera.
Thanks. It takes extra time as I need to upload all the pictures to photobucket then copy them over to the html on ebay but I think its worth it. I'm sure there is a quicker way but dont have a mac or garage sale.Brian - your auction template and pics are amazing. I was lurking your auctions last week, really impressive! I also like that you have the ebay pics for the mobile guys and good sized pics in the auction. Absolutely the way to go IMO.
Quote: I use the square photo when I can for the 1st image in the listing and then rectangular images for all the rest. I think the square image lets you shower a larger item in the search page as it fills up the entire area.
100 transactions, 1000 dollars, 98% feedback, 90% shipping info uploaded within stated handling timePardon me if this is covered elsewhere, but can anyone tell me off the top of their head how many Seller feedbacks you need to be a top-rated seller?
*Also, at what point does PayPal stop holding your funds for 1 to 3 weeks?

Thanks!
What does this mean: "90% shipping info uploaded within stated handling time"? Just making sure that you are keeping your 1 day turn around promise?
wow, I thought you used the Plank's theme in GarageSale.Thanks. It takes extra time as I need to upload all the pictures to photobucket then copy them over to the html on ebay but I think its worth it. I'm sure there is a quicker way but dont have a mac or garage sale.

if you use the ebay mail labels, doesn't that track it automatically for you?You need to upload the tracking number within your stated handling time. So if it's one day you have one day to upload your tracking information. Also you have to have same or 1 day handling for top rated status.
