EDITD 1/21, SEE ITEM 3

Don't know if these will work for you, I am experimenting too. See what you think.

1. I don't advertise in Craigslist, but I have started watching the WANTED posts in my area. If things work out, I will sell two items for $50 each this week each by responding to WANTED ads.

2. Ditto for e-bay if you still sell there, check their WANTED posts from time to time.

3. MSN has a free classified ads system. Have to get an MSN account. I set up several items last week. It's not included in general MSN search results, don't know if anyone uses it but am going to post more there this week. Ads stay up for eight weeks. EDITED 1/21 Just found out that these listings are included in Google search. I posted a classified ad about my web site for belleek marks, and it is showing up FOURTH in a google search for "belleek marks" ! The ad takes people to my web site, which shows items I have for sale on ecrater.

See http://expo.live.com/

Very simple to use, nice setup. See how my ads turned out:

Now go expose yourselves! or whatever...

Yeah, those are good suggestions.

I try to remember to check eBay's Want It Now every time I list new auctions but don't always remember. That feature seems to be almost hidden away but it would be really great if everybody really used it. I've gotten a couple of decent sales from responding to listings there and hope to get more in the future...
