  1. I don’t have a logical explanation for being afraid to try eBay, or the 99 cent auction, but I definitely have a mind block In that regard. Maybe 2014 is the year to give it a shot!

  2. It works for you, that is so inspiring!
    I haven’t tried the eBay or similar route yet, but 2014 might just be it!!
    Thanks for the interesting article, makes one consider the options!!

    • Thanks Rene,

      Go for it! Just remember for an auction to be successful your photography has to be very good – that seems to be the #1 thing.

      • I have been following your advice and bought a Canon Rebel( I still have to learn how to use it)
        I bought your slouchy cardigan pattern, after making it I put it on eBay auction for 99 cents.
        After 7 scary days it sold for $10. 49 cents.

        My feedback was 5 stars and the buyer thought the cardigan was very cute. so I was pretty pleased with the results and decided I will try again. I bought the jeans pattern and made a waistcoat and put it in my Etsy store and web site.
        Tonight after more encouragement from you i am going to put it on eBay for 99 cents.
        Thank you!

        • Exciting to hear Joyce, thanks for letting us know. There are tutorials for using your canon – on Youtube… that should help a lot. Try to get a 50MM or 85MM fixed length lens. That will make your photos truly pop – which helps a lot.

          All the very best,

          Jason

  3. I haven’t done much on eBay either. A few lower price niche outfits. Not sure if I want to take the plunge to the elite tier. Not sure I want to be stuck in the economy class either.

  4. still a little nervous about the 99 cent auction but after reading the comments here I think I will give it a try.
