Right guys I have put my Lucinda Green Navy Wool show jacket on ebay 3 times and it still hasn't sold! What should I do now? Is it to highly priced?
It is brand new with tags on. I paid £195 for it!
I put a starting price of £60 and a buy it now of £75. With P&P at £5.95.
I am desperate for cash at the mo so it really needs to go!
Any ideas people?

Maybe put a lower starting price on it as £60 sounds quite scary! Im sure it's gorgeous but sometimes you have to drop prices to get things sold (Im currently doing that with my house!!). The fact that its brand new with tags on and no one has bought it at £60 does really surprise me though! Have you put the right stuff on the title line as well so when people are searching it can be found easily?
 
This is what I don't understand. It had 5 people watching it! But no one bothered to buy it.
Its absolutely stunning with velvet collar gold buttons and a stunning gold lining!
 
Its a size 10!
I bought it because I lost my hunt coat. But then about a week later my hunt coat turned up in a ball in my lorry

So I don't need it now.
 
Can you take a photo of it being worn, it will show it off much better, i would put a reserve of 50 on with a lower starting bid.
 
Keep relisting it if its new you dont want to give it away you may as well keep it as a spare!....I sold my saddle a few weeks ago and had been listing it since christmas I reduced it 3 times but didnt want to go any less as it may as well have been kept in the tack just incase I ever bought another horse. I had lots of viewers but no bidders and randomly when i listed it for what was the 10th time people were fighting for it and I got £125 more for it than I wanted in the first place

Its worth so much more than I'm asking but I am desperate for the cash. The tax man owes me £1500.00 now and I was relying on that money and it hasn't turned up. Otherwise I would keep it.

Its Navy

I've just sold two bridles on ebay, both good quality english bridles and they made hardly any money. However, as they were hanging around and unlikely to be used I listed them with low starting price and no reserve, stupid I know.
 
If you want more than £50 for it I'd stick it on a starting bid of 99p and put a £60 reserve on it. That way it will attract more people to bid on it. Or you could stick it on for £60 and put the Best Offer option on it, I did this about a week ago on something that I put up as £40 buy it now, and I got a best offer of £37.

Starting an item like that at £60 is not only going to cost you a hell of a lot in listing fees, but it's not going to attract many people.

I agree start it at 99p and you will loads of people interested and then they will keep bidding even when it goes over £60
