    Ok so Iv been selling on ebay quite a lot lately and after the invoice from ebay of £150, iv decided its probably best if I paid for a classified ad, every month I sell 100 - 200 products, only just started doing it though buy it now payments, I found some info on ebay that they only charge you a one off fee for the ad, any extras would be for improving the ad.

    So it costs $9.95 /month for a classified ad? around that price, but I havnt found any information pn actually setting one up.

    Rather than paying £150 a month it would seem better to use a classified ad,

    HERE you see a classified ad:

    STEP 1:
    From the eBay.com homepage:

    * Click on “advanced search” leaving all fields blank
    * Click on “search” leaving all fields blank
    * Under the “format” drop down box select “classified ads” and click “show” out to the right of the drop down boxes.

    The categories that don’t have zeros are elligible for classified ads. No other categories will accept them.

    STEP 2:
    To set up an ad in one of those categories that allows classified ads:

    * Click on sell and describe your item
    * Proceded to the page where you select your category
    * Select a category that allows classified ads (from above)
    * Once you proceed to the page titled “Sell: Create Your Listing” scroll down to the section titled “How you’re selling”. At the top of that section you should see four tabs. One of them is “classified ad” ASSUMING YOU’VE CHOSEN A CATEGORY THAT ALLOWS CLASSIFIED ADS FROM STEP ONE ABOVE.

    Hope this helps,

    You can ask the community link on the upper right side of the web page on eBay. I hope that helps.
