Listing question....

L lvtosnipeMember
Hello all - please help me out on this one. I have a listing question. I was asked to list a few vacation rentals for a local person's summer resort. This is classified under the real estate listings on ebay, so the fees are higher than the normal auction fees.

Should I list this in the auction format or in the Ad format? I've never done this type of auction before so I'm kind of unsure where to start.

Here is the fee schedule
Timeshares and Land
Listing Type / Duration Insertion Fee
Auction Format
1-, 3-, 5-, 7-, or 10-day Listing $35
30-day Listing $50
Ad Format
30-day Listing $150
90-day Listing $300

I'm thinking 30 day listing in the auction format would probably work out best, but I'm a little unsure. Any advice would is welcome.

Thanks a lot fellow snipers....

...with the listing! It appears very nicely done.

Just a small nit to pick -- I'm not sure why you emphasize the cabin is "winterized" when attempting to rent it out in July! Perhaps a better approach to promote that particular feature would be to say it is "well insulated so it doesn't get too hot during warm days or too cold during chilly nites". Just an observation -- definitely not a listing killer. Smile

That particular paragraph was copied directly from the brochure. The owner wants to emphasize that the cabins are available year round. In Northern Minnesota most lodges/resorts are only a seasonal business.

I can see your point about taking that out, but I think I'll leave it in so prospective bidders know that it is a year round establishment.

Thanks for the suggesstions tho...

Mrs. M. - I changed it to only read available year round. I guess I never thought of it that way.

Here in the northwoods when people say winterized it means that there is a heating system, etc and it is to be assumed it's appropriate for year round use. However, I have heard of people "winterizing" their boats, flusing systems etc. So I guess the word does have different means for different things.

Thanks all - you're the greatest.

Just proves how odd the English language truly is.
