Should I accept best offers on my listings?
Yes — enabling Best Offer on eBay consistently improves sell-through rate. Set auto-accept at 85–90% of your asking price and auto-decline at anything below 70%. On Depop, respond to all offer DMs promptly. Declining offers is fine — what kills sales is not responding at all.

Key things to know for Australian sellers
Australian online selling has its own quirks: GST registration thresholds, Australia Post rate structures, and platform-specific buyer behaviour differ from the US and UK advice you'll find most readily online. Checking ATO guidance directly and using the Australia Post postage calculator for accurate quotes are good starting points.
Using multiple platforms together
Most successful Australian resellers end up selling across at least two platforms. The marginal effort to list on a second platform is much lower if you already have photos and a description, and reaching two different buyer pools meaningfully increases your chances of a sale.
