Trends in used panty supply demand

Interesting. I’ve been an active buyer for several years now. I’ve seen quite a few come and go. If you look back at the early posts in these forums you’ll see lots of hit and run sellers who disappeared never to be heard from again. I haven’t really noticed that it is any more now than usual. I think it is just that there wasn’t a place like panty hog before where new sellers had the opportunity to get noticed as easily. Before, they might post an auction and disappear, now they can actually announce their arrival.

Since new sellers actually can get noticed and get help here though, I think more have the opportunity to actually get a business established if they’re willing to put some work into it and stick it out.

As far as the prices go its the same way with any new business. A new business has to give buyers a reason to give them a try. Once they get a few sales they seem to bring their panty prices in line with the norm.

Just my ideas… jo

I sold my first pair of panties 2 days ago…I’m getting 40$ a pair…that I’ll wear for 48hrs and masterbate in them before I remove them and send them….I thought that was a fair and reasonable price…I guess I’m over charging…but he said he’ll probably be a repeat customer…so we’ll see if my naughty panties are worth the price…I think they are…I love the way I smell why shouldn’t others….Candee KISSES

Hi Karen,
Yes, we’ve noticed a great many new panty sellers joining eBare recently, ladies who, by the style of their auctions and lack of personal site etc, you can tell that this is probably their first time.  We’ve noticed from our site referrals that we’ve had a great many people coming in from posts on forums – unfortunately when we go in to have a look and see whats been written about the site ( hey – everyone wants to know whats been written about them  🙂 – its usually been removed but not before sending alot of people through.

We think this is where some of the UK ‘newbies’ are coming from.  They see the success and attention the sellers on the site receive and find its a turn on and they’ll have a go. Obviously once they get alot of interest – which any new seller does it boosts confidence to go out and find other places to sell their items and then another panty girl is born…

Trouble is as a ‘newbie’ they are very eager to please and very bouyed up by all the attention and can sometimes be taken advantage by seasoned buyers (not all we hasten to add) with very low prices. But once they have a few auctions under their belt thet tend to have looked around to see what everyone else is doing and follow suit.

Thats just our experience on eBare it may be completely different elsewhere. Brace yourselves for another influx after Tuesday then…….

What’s happening on Tuesday?

On Tuesday eBare have been invited as guests on Kerrang! Radio to talk about ebare/used panties etc.

It will be broadcast live online at http://www.whatson.com/kerrang/  or UK bods can go to Sky TV Channel 933 and NTL channel 895 betwen 10pm and 1am GMT – so all our good friends in the US will be spared the ‘strangled cat-like’ sound of my voice :cheer:

We just think that if listeners go have a look at eBare a great many will think – ‘I can do that!’ – whether or not they will stand the test of time is another matter entirely.

But back to Karen’s inital point… ‘newbies’ may well underprice to start with simply because they havent looked around enough to know the ‘average’ prices.  Most are simply doing it because they find it a turn on and love the attention they receive – the financial gain is more of an afterthought at first.

On the upside as well as pantie sellers it should also bring in lots of pantie buyers too 😉
