Prices for pins?

Hi All

I'm looking to try and sell some of my traders....I was just wondering how you know what price to put on them??

Thanks

You can look through sold items on forums, groups or Ebay. Or you can think about what you originally spent. But do make note that Ebay prices aren't the amount the seller gets, Ebay asks fees of the total amount.

eBay and PayPal takes about 13% in fees. If you sell through the forum, you don't have to pay eBay fees, you'd only pay PayPal fees (about 3%); so most of the time, prices will be 10% less than eBay (unless it's a grail-type pin).

Thanks for the replies

Another question sorry, how do you check sold prices on ebay? I've not used that feature before....

In the left column on an Ebay search there are bolded sections titled "Format, Item Location, Delivery Options, and Show Only." Under the bold "Show Only" title there are three boxes which you can check, "Returned Accepted, Completed Listings, Sold Listings." If you check the box for sold listings it will then show you all of the sold items for whatever you were searching for (bids or buy it nows). If you check the completed listings box it will show you the auctions that ended regardless of bids, buys etc. Hope this makes sense.
