Ebay Gurus: could use advice!

[tmarie]

My dd received TWO NIB American Girl Bitty Baby twins for the holidays...I'd like to sell the one I paid for! :) She obviously doesn't need four dolls, and the box is unopened. I've only sold a couple of things on ebay in the past. I paid about $100 for these dolls and I'd like to get as much of my money back as possible. I usually start things with really low bidding, but isn't that risky in this case? Have any of you had success selling things "buy it now"? There appear to be no other NIB twins for sale on ebay right now, so I have nothing to compare to! :(

Thanks in advance!

Starting them low will get your auction more attention because it will get more bids. You can always set a reserve of your bottom dollar price to make sure you do make money. A BIN is an option too.

I think they're good about accepting returns. Why don't you call, explain and see if you can get a return number. You'd probably be out the postage and get credit but it might be better than you'd do after ebay fees.
