Ebay question - reselling

[BearSoFair]

Apologies if this is a stupid question, I've been buying on ebay for years but only recently started selling!

Recently bought 4 items on ebay as a group (not part of a set, they're the same magazines with different covers) as it was the easiest and cheapest way to get them. However, we only really want/need 2 of the 4. Can I re-list and sell the remaining two, or is that frowned upon?

Of course you can i used to buy at auction houses especially to list on ebay but if you have left feedback or the seller has left you feedback for them you wont get quite such a high price as potential buyers will be able to see what you paid for them

A lot of people have more than one account, one for buying and one for selling. That makes it more difficult for people to see the price you paid. However, they can still see what they sold for up to a certain length of time by using advanced search.

Once you buy something, it is yours to do as you wish, except in certain circumstances, some large companies do not permit it and will get it removed. Normal items, just go ahead.

That's great, thank you both! Not too bothered if I get less for them, it just seems like a better option to sell them on than keeping them here unread then eventually getting recycled!
