Question
Hello Suzie, I wanted your help on how to sell a pair of brand new unused boots on the eBay selling site. I recently signed up on the eBay website and I am now ready sell my first item on eBay.

I have a pair of brand new safety boots. These boots were ordered last week and came a couple of days ago. But the boots are 1 size larger, so they dont really fit me. The boots are Super Safety Boots - Size 10, and my size is 9. Selling price is $30. Will list it as buy it now or whats your best offer?

How do I word it in the eBay description page? Any suggestions would be very much grateful.

Kind Regards,
Josh

**I am so sorry for the delay in responding**

I did a little checking on your boots, and I didn't find any with the brand name "Super Safety", but I did find 214 boots currently on eBay with the term "Super Safety".   If this were my item, I would make sure to include the brand name, if they have one.  

For a title, I would do something like this: "New Men's Super Safety Black Work Boots sz 10."  My description would be something like this:

Up for auction is a brand new pair of men's Super Safety Black work boots.  Brand new never worn.  I ordered these and they came in the wrong size.  My loss is your gain.

*         Color
*         Boot name (from the manufacturer)
*         What's it made of? Leather, vinyl?
*         Men's Size 10
*         Man Made?
*         New in the Box or just new
*         Retail price:
*         Measurements from heel to toe on the bottom of the boot
*         Does it have a steel toe?
*         How much you are charging for shipping, OR how much the item weighs.

Good luck with your boots!
