Do you know why the online auctions are not working out on eBay India?
When I first started selling on eBay, I selected eBay India's Auction format? I listed one of my Tintin comics for just Rs. 1/- with free shipping. It was indeed a very successful auction and it got sold within a week. That was five years ago. But now things have changed a lot. Now, when you list your item on the auction format on eBay India, you do get some bids on your item, but once the auction is over your buyer never pays you. So, you are stuck with the sold product for sometime. You cannot re-list it as you may not know when will your buyer pay for it. You just wait and wait and wait. Worst your buyer just ignores all your e-mails and phone calls. I am suffering with this problem long time. So, I decided to list all my items in the fixed format called Buy It Now. But I still miss the adventures of auctioning online. This problem is with eBay India. May be we Indians need to learn how to buy an item on auction. There are lot of time-pass bidders who just bids on random items for fun and never pay for it.
