E bay pictures

[Old Daffodil]

I have inherited some huge peices of furniture which I cannot put in the house so would like to sell them on E-bay. I have managed to open an account but don't know how to do the photograph part. Can anyone help please?

when you list the item - it will ask you in the process if you wish to supply photographs, at this point you simply direct ebay to where the pictures are on your computer and it does the rest! You MAY need to upload some software but it will tell you if you do.

So if I put the photos on photobucket or something like that they will find them on there?

No need for that Gloria, just upload them straight from your pc

Daffodil if you put them on Ebay the buyer will want to know do you ship?  If not you will have to ask people to collect which means you will narrow the field of sale as people may not want to travel miles to pick-up.  Also if you don't put a reserve the stuff could go for peanuts.
There are two more options, why don't you contact your local Auction rooms, most Auctions will come and date your furniture tell you all about it and give you an estimated price.  They  will collect your furniture and sell it for you with a commission.  Even if you don't sell with the Auction they will give you a good idea exactly what you have.  Why not put some of it on the Calis Carnival Antiques Roadshow where it will be valued and will make some money for the Carnival Week.

Thanks for all the replies,
I have only just noticed your post Jacqui, thank for the suggestion,I missed the chance to do that.
I was lucky enough to sell the furniture privately so no problem in the end. I enjoy the programmes with David Dickinson and Tim Wonnacott,it was fun selling something.
I will have a stab at putting something on ebay with a photograph one day.
I do have photobucket to put photographs on the forum so would it be ok to use that for ebay?

Daffodil: As someone said above, Ebay will take the pics direct from your computer, no need to upload them to an external site. When you get to the part of the proces is simply says "upload file" & you have options so you can find the photo folder on your pc & select the correct pic, hope that helps.

There is also gumtree for local sales.
