e-Powersellers makes it easy to sell items online!
How much does it cost?
e-Powersellers charges very competitive rates and no costs up front. e-Powersellers rates are based on a sliding scale. The higher the item sells, the lower our commission. Please see the getting started page for e-Powersellers rates.
Can I set the
selling price?
Yes! e-Powersellers is happy to do
some free research to find the approximate selling price for
similar current and past eBay auctions. Work with your
local e-Powersellers office to come up with the best pricing
strategy for your items. Please ask about fixed price vs.
auction as well as eBay store listings.
What if my item
doesn't sell?
If your item does not sell,
e-Powersellers will atomically relist the item at 25% less than
the original starting price. If you wish not to reduce the
listing price, please tell your e-Powersellers account manager.
If the item still does not sell you can make an appointment to
pick up your item and pay your listing fees, or you can mail
your listing fees and e-Powersellers can donate your item to
charity.
What items can I sell on eBay
e-Powersellers will normally accept any item as long as the value of the item or lot of items exceed one hundred dollars in value on eBay. Some items clearly do better than others on eBay and that does vary greatly depending on the economy, current trends and some based on seasonal needs. There are some items unaccepted by e-Powersellers as well as prohibited items. Please see the What Sells page for a more informative list.
How long will my item by listed?
Normally we list items for the
maximum allowed time on eBay which is 10-days. We normally
list on a Thursday or Friday to allow the items to span over two
weekends for better exposure. However we can list your item for
as little as 1-day for time sensitive items such as concert or
sport tickets.
Do I need to drop off my items at your
store?
We usually require all items to be
held at the e-Powersellers office that is doing your listing.
Exceptions would include vehicles, industrial equipment,
liquidation lots, antique furniture and large or cumbersome
items. For items that are the exception e-Powersellers can
usually come to your home or business to photograph such items.
Do you have special rates for
charities?
We do a fixed commission rate of 25%
for charities with no additional listing fees. Members of
your charity can drop the items off at e-Powersellers on behalf
of the charity. e-Powersellers will list the item and send
the proceeds to the charity. If the item does not have
sufficient value to list, e-Powersellers will hold the item
until a "lot" can be listed on eBay.
When do we get paid?
e-Powersellers sends out payment
approximately once
per month for items sold and shipped the prior month. As
items may be dropped off for research before being listed and
items may not sell the first time it is not necessarily a fast
process. Items dropped off may be as quick as 30-days from
drop off to payment and it may be as long as 2-3 months.

home user. e-Powersellers account managers will contact
the business and discuss relist options or other eBay listing

e-Powersellers will send a statement for the listing fees and
you are welcome to schedule a time to pick up your items if they
are at an e-Powersellers office.
