International eBay Sales are Great

by

I am constantly amazed at the volume of our international sales. I think there are several reasons for this. The most important thing is the reasonable shipping fees from the USPS for items weighing less than four pounds. This class of service, called First Class Mail International, accounts for most of our international shipments. Another reason is that we use the Pirate Ship mailing service to print our mailing labels, which allows you to buy inexpensive insurance for this class of mail. I think these two business practices give international customers confidence in buying from Connectibles.

 

Several Great Software Programs we Use for our eBay Listing

by

In effort to differentiate our eBay listings from others, we have picked up several software tools for improving our photographs. The first product is Bling It! It is great to be able to remove the background in a photograph and replace it.  It’s easy to remove the old background but keep the product because Bling! It has done all the hard work by tracing all the key edges in the image. Simply paint Delete outside these edges and Bling! It will flood-fill right up to the edge – a bit like painting by numbers!

Another great piece of Photo software in Picnik Image Editors.  This is a wonderful editor that makes your photos fabulous with easy to use yet powerful editing tools.  Tweak to your heart’s content, then get creative with oodles of effects, fonts, shapes, and frames.

Both of these software packages can be downloaded online and each has a free trial period, check it out!
