    Default selling question, how much feedback should I have...

    I guess this is more of a general feedback/selling question but...

    How much feedback should I have before I sell a high priced item? Like $200 range. All my other sales have been much lower $20 or under. I have all positives but not much feedback yet.

    I sold a neo geo cd for around 120$ with only about 50 feedback. Didn't have any problems. You could always just sell a ton of small little items you know you can get rid of easily to build up feedback. If you're worried about having a lot of feedback that's they only thing you're going to be able to do.

    I'd say somewhere between 50 to 100 positives. A fair amount of people won't even bid if you don't have that much feedback but it really kind of varies from one bidder to the next.

    As the other person said selling a bunch of cheap items is generally the best way to build up your feedback. The only problem is a lot of people don't leave feedback. I'd say about maybe 10% to 20% of people will leave you feedback. Something to keep in mind.

    Well good feedback always helps sell an auction. I think you sell one for some good cash even if you have 25 or more. It would also help to state that you use paypal and are a verified user. If you aren't a verifies user I recommend spending the 15 minutes to do so. So if you have like 25 or more pos. and no negs. I think your good to sell a high priced item (if your using paypal).
    Somebody make me a "CGE 2k7 Attendee banner" so I don't have to use this lame text
