Sony Playstation 2 Repair Manual page 42

OK..let's get started on the next part of getting your auction listed.
• In the Item Title Box Type "Playstation 2 Console – Needs Repair"
• Now if you are using my template you need to copy it and paste it into the Description Box. If you are
not going to use it then you need to type in your description. NOTE- If you use my template you can
change the description by adding or deleting text, just be careful to NOT delete any of the coding
around and in the text.
• Go to the bottom of the page and click on the "Continue" Button
Your now page 3 which is called "Pictures and Details"- Follow the steps below for each
• Duration – 7 days is a good auction length.- You can go longer if wanted but it will cost you.
• Start Time-Start the auction right after your done. Note- It's best to start between 6-10 PM.
• Quantity- "1"
• Starting Price- "9.95"
• Reserve Price- This is optional. If you don't care how much you get for your console leave it blank. If
you don't want to sell it unless you get a certain amount then put that amount in this box. This is kept
secret from bidders but if your price is not met then the auction will say "Reserve Price Not met"
Having a reserve price will sometimes discourage people from bidding. Personally on an auction for a
broken PS2 console I wouldn't care what I got for it. It's worthless as is.
• Buy it Now Price- This is optional. This is a price that you will take for your console right now. In other
words if you will take $60.00 then put $60.00 in this box and someone can end the auction instantly buy
paying you $60.00 for your item. This only works until someone else bids on the auction at your starting
bid. Once that happens then the BUY IT NOW option will go away.
• Private Auction- Leave this Unchecked
• City, State- Just Put the State you are shipping from
• Region- I do not use this but you can if you want. Just select the Closest major market you live by.
• Pictures- This is where you would normally add your pictures. I have a default PS2 console picture
included in my template so there is no need for you to add any unless you want to.
• List Designer- You can use this if you want but NOT if you are using my template. If you want to use
this you can but you will need to have your own picture to upload.
• Gallery Picture- No need for one on this auction
• Listing Upgrades- No need for any
• Gift Services- Do Not show as a gift
• Free Page Counter- This is up to you
• Click "Continue" at the bottom of the page
The next section is Payment and Shipping
• Seller Accepted Payment Methods – Just Click on all of the buttons that apply to you. If you will
accept Paypal then make sure to put your Paypal email address in the box listed.
• Shipping Costs – Buyer Pays Shipping Costs – And if you use my template it states that $12.00 is the
Shipping cost so you can fill in the blanks on the next part. Insurance is optional so make it so and put
that price in. The cost of insurance is $1.30 for the first $50.00 and an additional $1.00 per $50.00 after
that. So, $2.30 would cover up to $100.00.
• Payment Instructions- Tell them that you will contact them after the auction with payment instructions.
• Ship to Locations- Select "US Only" Shipping outside the US can be a REAL hassle. My auction
template states that the shipping cost quoted is for the lower 48 states only. Shipping to Hawaii and
Alaska can be more so you want to make sure to get an accurate price on shipping if your winning
