Re: Selling Heels on Ebay...My Observation Wow...this is pretty fascinating. The anonymity factor that e-bay provides is a definite plus for men (or anybody for that matter) does play a huge role. I also post all of my listing as private auctions to aid in that matter. Also, I do think, that as man of you have pointed out that the size is a factor. Men buy a lot of larger sizes. However, I have been communicating with one woman who bought 11 pair form me that she said that she has a very difficult time finding shoes from many brands in her size. I then begin to think that for e-bay shoppers in general, it is kind of a one-stop-shop for hard to find items. Lets face it, US11 and 12 shoes in diverse styles takes a lot of time to find otherwise, and she was able to get 11 pair in just a few days.
I also buy a few pair on e-bay, but I prefer the challenge of finding them "on the rack." But what is nice, is that you can wear them a few times and then recoup some money for them on e-bay. As one of the previous posts said, it is a great way to keep your collection fresh.
As for the whole e-bay thing, I think I am hooked...at least for now. |
