Ebay listing of the day – 8/18/09
STRIDE RITE FIRST MATE BROWN SANDALS 7M EURO 23 HCTS
Today’s Ebay listing of the day comes from Giggle Drops Kids Resale and More. This is a great pair of sandals in your listing and I was drawn in by your nice gallery photo. It’s a touch bit out of focus, but I like it on the white background and the nice, close-up shot of the shoes. I also really like the search box in your listing template….what a great way to get buyers to quickly take a peek at your other listings!
Your description is short and to the point, which is nice. I think the shipping terms get a little lengthy with your description of all the different shipping options and how long they take, etc. Perhaps shorten it to something like, “We ship Priority Mail within 2 business days after payment. Expedited shipping methods with guaranteed delivery takes are always available for an extra charge. Please contact us for more shipping options.” That may also help draw attention to your combined shipping rates…..as they are currently a little buried right at the end of the shipping terms.
I do have a concern with your title. As it currently stands, the size is listed as 7M and the only way buyers will pull it up in a search is if they are searching for the size by using 7M.
For example, I did an ebay search using the terms “stride rite brown sandals 7″ and your listing doesn’t come up. I would definitely find a place to just put a plain “7″ in your title so it will be more searchable.
A new title suggestion:
BOYS STRIDE RITE FIRST MATE BROWN SANDALS 7M 7 HCTS
Overall, very nice. Best of luck with your listing!

I agree with the plain 7–that is how I usually search! Great job!
