eBay, 10 days and only one view?

    Hiya guys

    I have recently tried to sell a few items on ebay but have been surprised with how few views my items have received. Altogether I put up 6 items and after 10 days they have received less than 10 views between them.

    Is there something I'm missing? Should I have not created as account on eBay.ie and instead created one on eBay.co.uk.

    Or do Irish sellers usually get zero traffic

    Yeah I'd recommend an account on their co.uk site. Much larger audience.

    Just factor in the extra postage costs based on the buyer probably being in the UK.

    Can you post up a few of the links, then people will be able to give better tips.

    On I often see is people putting up very vague descriptions, with all the info in the bulk of the auction details.

    I am not certain but I think it only searches the title when people do a search.

    It's not a huge deal, more curious than anything else

    I have it listed in tobacco collectables so I assume it's in the right place.

    What are your postage setting? If it is set to only deliver to Ireland most wouldn't see it in the search results.
