has anyone sold any high-price bags (over $1000) successfully? I'm a bit wary...

I used the first link (the recommended one). Then I pasted the code into my item description and it just turned into pictures!

Yes, kimalee, I have sold three or four Balenciaga bags there - one for around $2k, one for $1.5k, and the others were around $1k. No problems at all. All of the purchasers were PF members. Took about a week for Google Checkout to transfer the $$$ to my checking account.

Good luck to you!

Yes ma'am... all to pf'ers (or hubby's of pf'ers!) and no problems at all. When you create your booth, see the 3 tabs at the top. Click ADVANCED OPTION and where it asks ALLOW BIN, check NO, so that when a buyer wishes to purchase, you are notified and can decide to approve the transaction or not.

Mods please delete....I answered my own question!

kimalee · Feb 20th, 2009, 05:30 PM

thanks, ladies!

paranoidpoodle · Mar 31st, 2009, 01:01 PM

I've been on since Mid January and have made over $400! :) Thanks ladies for mentioning B on here. I had not heard of them before and gave it a try. And I'm glad I haven't gone back to the bay and get cheated out of merch and $$$....

paranoidpoodle · Mar 31st, 2009, 01:02 PM

Oh and I left off that I barely made my sales this month!! :) The first month I only made $20, but it's picked up and I've been patient with booth.

BlkLadyLaw · Apr 1st, 2009, 11:03 AM

I finally got some sales! Sold Hermes, Chanel and a Gucci bags!!! And only $25 in fees total. Yeah!

I finally got my booth active on Bonanzle this past Saturday and Sunday and on Monday I sold a Marc Jacobs bag! THAT was a fast sale!!

kristinmcd · Apr 1st, 2009, 01:20 PM

Congrats ladies!

bouncin · Apr 2nd, 2009, 06:26 PM

I'm not having so much luck, but I guess I need to be patient. I've only been on for 2 weeks. I have 3 items up with OBO. No offers yet.

kristinmcd · Apr 2nd, 2009, 06:58 PM

3 weeks is nothing on Bonanzle unfortch. Remember, there are no fees to list and you can leave it on for as long as you like.

twochubbycheeks · Apr 2nd, 2009, 07:00 PM

congrats ladies!!!

I got my seller's fees for last month..I made 6 sales and only $30 in fees (not to mention the sucky PayPal fees too.. ugh!). definitely better than freakin stinkin ebay! LOL
