looks like a good ad hope you make a sale! just a word of warning about the not next, m&s etc bit. ebay apparently don't like this as it is 'spamming' and this is apparently forbidden on ebay.
i placed some items of clothing on ebay and had put not gap, boden (they were next items) i had bids of over £10 on 2 of the items and ebay withdrew the listing as i had contravened the rules of ebay!!!!! so i ahd to relist not 'spamming' and only eneded with about £10 in total was really peeved off and for ages going round looking at other ad's thinking they're spamming, how come they can get away with it and i got my ads withdrawn. now just try and stick to the rules, but occasionally sneak in the odd 'and next we have ..........'

i thought you weren't allowed to do it, but as you say everyone does!

Hi, I have sold a ladies designer top without a photo and sold it for £21. I only did this once, and it was an error (when I was new to ebay), but dont think I would buy without a picture. I think if you have good feedback you should get bids.

oops yours is more chatty, and I prefer the colour of yours but I also noticed that your pram finishes before the other one. So more people will bid on the one finishing first and then the losing bidders will switch to the other pram.

hi.... theoretically, if you list items on Ebay on Thursday night at about 7.30 / 8.30 pm time as a 10 day listing, they will achieve more money as they will end on a Sunday evening, the time when most people are looking, and the 10 days gives the maximum amount of time for the maximum amount of people to see your ad...

In addition to this, if you go to the Ebay "home" tab, go to Ebay pulse and select the category you want to list in in the drop down menu in top searches. This will give you top 10 key search words in the category - so fit as many of those you can (honestly) do in your title. The title only has to make vague sense - you just need as many hits as poss.

I would never personally list anything without a gallery picture, let alone a picture full stop. I would certainly not buy anything without a picture, unless it was something like a DVD.

I wish you luck - hope it sells well!!

I list many of my items on a thursday evening to finish on a sunday at about 7.30 pm as I was told that was when most people are ebaying.

youy could see if there is the same item already listed, and once it has sold email the seller.
they will more than likely be happy to let you use their pics

Really nice listing I would have put the title in capitals and perhaps said pet and smoke free home if that applies. Good luck.
