Default how long it will take

for your premier bag to be sold?

Acturally I ordered a prada handbag from NM.com last several weeks ago, with extra 40% off. So final price is 860 with the original price 2150. I think it is really a good deal. But for some reason I got 2, so I am thinking of saling one on eBay for my purchase price plus ebay expense, like 950 in total. Unfortunately it wasn't sold. So I wonder how long it will take to sell? I hope someone who need it will be happy to get one with good deal. But if it will take too long, then I have to return it because I don't want my money stuck on such a expensive handbag. So what is your experience and advice?

TIA!!

Unfortunately for higher ticket items it may take longer, like a few more listings before it will get sold. It all depends on if the bag is popular and in demand. Can you not return it? I think it will be a better choice; you'll most likely get more money that way, and less hassle, not to mention much less possibility for fraud with all that going on out there.

You may have gotten a great deal, but unfortunately it really depends on if the bag is in demand and if potential buyers think it's a great deal. I've burned myself a few times buying bags on sale and thinking I can resell them to make a little money, but wound up unloading them for less than what I paid to get rid of them. You will probably have to list a few times before it sells.

It depends. If you do a great listing with clear pictures and description, it will sell faster. And, it just depends if it is your week where the eBay servers promote your item in the search (ebay's servers are overwhelmed and it seems that every few weeks my stuff just doesn't really show up to bidders). Don't loose sleep over it--eventually someone will buy it!
