hey guys, need some help. as you all know several month ago i sold some games on ebay and didn't turn as i expected because shipping from the Dominican Republic to the States is US$ 10 per pound (Good news was that i didn't loose but didn't win money, it was even), so i started to search what can i sell on ebay without having to send anything via post oficce and send it via email, i found some ebooks that i'm actually selling but with no luck, i have sold some but not a big boom.

so, i want to ask if any of you have try to sell something Digitally that can be send via email, or any opinion on what can i sell that have more posibility to sale. this way i can stop using a little bit my credit card when i buy on internet (US$1 = RD$45 Dominican Pesos). is better to have the money in dollars on paypal and not charge the credit card via paypal because the bank will make the f^&%&^$ change of US$1 = RD$45 Dominican Pesos

Thanks for your opinion on this topic

I'm guessing the postage would have been so high that he wouldn't have any buyers... :-[
Maybe, just once, someone will call me "sir" without adding, "you're making a scene."

Digital items are not covered by eBay. In other words, someone can win the item, pay, get the code or content, then dispute the charge and get their money back from you.

It's uncommon, but I've had it happen to me.

It's funny.  I just received an email today from eBay saying that they have a new program to ship international where you pay to ship to one location in the states and they send it international from there.  You only pay the shipping to the location in the states (and in theory, so does the buyer).  But I think this only applies to sellers in the states.  I'm sure if it works well, they will move it to ther countries, but who knows when that will be.....sorry.

I actually have been using this for over a year and it works great, but I have had people complain that the shipping is too high so they must charge a lot from the distribution center in US to other countries because the shipping I paid to the center was pretty much what I paid to ship to a person in the US.

hey, again asking for something similar, but this time i will ask if you guys know a page where you can earn money for real i was told about musicxray and slicethepie, both are supposes to pay for listening to music and rate them, but one send me two musics to hear and the other non, nothing to exciting.

asking this because i don't want to charge more my creditcard on internet (US$1 = RD$ 43 dominican pesos) and now the goverment is going to apply 18% tax to all items bought on internet under US$200, before was free under US$200. So i will have to pay, creditcard at the change that the bank has, shipping to the dominican republic and 18% tax of the value of the article.

I just need something to sell and can be send via email or a page where i can earn money and can be save on paypal.
