Worth it to see an NWT BCBG Girls purse on eBay?

onesharon · Aug 4th, 2008, 06:25 PM

I don't sell on eBay that much, but I have this BCBG purse sitting in my closet in a dust bag that has never been used and I feel like I should sell it. But, I went to ebay and typed in "BCBG Girls Bag" and all I see are "Buy it now" offers that aren't getting bought. Doesn't anyone just put things up for bidding anymore?

Now...is it even worth it to sell a bag like this on eBay? (It's a black hobo...cute, but too young for me I think.) What would I make the starting bid?

Thanks for any advice!

P.S. Moderator...if you could change the word "see" to "sell" in my title, that would be great!

Its worth a try. I think things are a bit slow in general. Economy I think.

Indeed...the economy and back to school shopping for kids doesn't leave as much money free to splurge on eBay!

when i'm in that situation i start the bidding off at a lower price than what the BINs are asking for...however, i put in a reserve price so that i don't feel taken advantage of...

Yes I think it's worth a try, but don't list the price/reserve lower than what you want to prevent disappointment :)

I think people are waiting for the live.com cashback to come back up again to make BIN purchases.

I don't even know what live.com cashback is. Is there a dummies' version? How many times a year does it pop up?

I'm going on vacation next week and was thinking of listing when I get home...maybe more people will be buying in the fall. It just seemed silly to have it sitting in my closet anymore...I'll try to figure out what to start the bidding at based on any buy-it-now stuff out there, but if anyone has a suggestion, please let me know! It's a BCBG Girls Black Hobo, with tags and dustbag, silver buckle on the front...I can post a pic if it helps but a general idea from you guys about how much to ask would be great!!
