Hey, I'm so glad I found this group! So much great information, I hardly know where to start.
I sell women's designer clothes on eBay and I've been having the worst time trying to communicate with this wholesaler that I bought from for the first time recently. They don't answer their phones or return emails AT ALL, and I've only received half of the items I ordered from them. The rest seem to be on indefinite backorder. The biggest irony is, they ship from the East Coast and I live in the Boston area.
Thanks for letting me rant. It's been driving me nuts.

Why use Squidoo to Promote your eBay Items?
Increase your auction traffic!

Yes, you should use Squidoo to promote your eBay items. Take a look at Seth Godin's blog post (the founder of Squidoo) here:
Thinking Outside the eBay Search Box
You see, eBay's search isn't something that you should rely on greatly. To get more bids, more traffic, and make more money, you need to develop a following. Unfortunately, this can't really be done if you're selling random stuff unless there is some sort of theme. If you sell amazingly cheap deals on brand new things, that might be a niche, but with lots of competition. If you had a niche of selling custom made ipod skins, car parts for a '67 Chevy, or antique chairs, you'll have much more of a chance of finding a customer base that will stay with you.
So what interests you? What do you love doing? There's your answer -- sell that! If you can provide your customers with information along with great products, you are much more likely to land a sale. And, you're also more likely to get a huge fan base that you can market with your eBay store email subscriptions (you get X amount per month depending on your subscription level).
eBay allows you to have a certain number of custom pages, along with the home page, in your store. 5 pages just isn't enough. So here's where Squidoo comes in. Build an attention-getting, awesome looking, informational Squidoo lens, then build another, and another, link them all together, and link to your store. If you do it right, you can have traffic flowing to your store. Then, start your own blog, and post about things that you know about or love and occasionally link to your store. But make it interesting!
