Selling Suggestions from longtime seller.
Hi all. Long time Pricecharting seller and contributor here. I also have sold on eBay for a few years. Just wanted to say that I enjoy selling on Pricecharting a lot more than on eBay. It's a lot more straightforward and profits are mostly better than eBay. I would like to take the time to input some suggestions for the marketplace. I have a feeling a lot of what I'm going to say has been suggested before but that's ok, just wanted to get my thoughts out.
Pictures function:
In my opinion, this part of marketplace needs a desparate overhaul.
The display of the thumbnails is a bit messy, especially on mobile where sometimes the photos go off the screen. A table here would be great.
Six photos needs increased to at least eight. If you have a CIB item that you've tested, six photos is a constraint.
Basic photo editing tools for cropping and rotating.
Ability to delete photos youve accidentally attached my mistake. Right now you either have to refresh the draft or submit and reedit.
View counter:
Knowing how much engagement you get on your listing would be helpful
Text limit increase:
I'm very descriptive in my listings as I think it helps cover my ass down the road. I think a slight text limit increase would help here. Say an extra 200 characters at least.
Ability to add shipping on cheap items:
I get it. It's a lot easier to not have to deal with shipping charges but hear me out. Let's take Madden 95 for example. Right now it Pricecharts for $4 and some change. if we were to sell a copy of this, Pricechart would expect us to sell below the $4 mark if we want engagement but what Pricecharting does not take into account is that the eBay listings used for reference all charged shipping. So in effect, if we want engagement on a $4 game we have to sell it for $3-something with free shipping, making it impossible to make a profit. I believe we should have the option to charge shipping for anything at least under $10.
Anyway, that's my two cents. Thanks for reading my feedback. -Josh
