Auctioning off quite a few wood lots on ebay £0.99 start....

Getting rid of around 60 pieces of wood on ebay cheaply - this is due to them being difficult to stack and store more than anything else.

 

Timber sales, Sugihara bars for Stihl items in chainsawbars alaskanmill and treet store on eBay!

 

I know people tend to slag ebay off but as a selling platform it is pretty much unbeatable - ok they take 10% of the sale price etc but then how much would it cost to host a full e commerce site to sell something like this?

 

 

It's a hard thing to sell the timber you mill - fortunately I have the courier contracts in place to ship it and Toby lists it for 20% of the final sale price.

 

Profit is tiny at around 10%-15% .... but hopefully this will increase if I can get the volume up.
