I have a basic shop on ebay to sell stamps. ebay stimulates that I add a video to promote the sales:
Quote
Add a video to share what makes your Store special. Stores with a seller video have up to 33% more conversion.
Unquote
Do you have any suggestions what kind of video I can make, as I'm completely blank after thinking about it for a few days

Thanks for your help

I am surprised that more ebay sellers have not yet implemented videos. It makes the listing really stand out.

I find videos easier (and faster) to do than scanning numerous album pages for listings collections/accumulations. But this may be because I have both the correct PC and applications to generate videos. Rendering high quality videos in reasonable amount of time requires a good PC (read as a $3k+ computer); the amount of time it would take to render a good video on a $899 consumer grade PC is not reasonable.

And you would not want to use any of the 'free' video editing applications. They might be fine for someone to wants to compile a few vacation videos for the family, but if you want to generate professional quality videos for commercial purposes; buy and learn a decent video editing application.

I can video an entire 100+ page album including the editing in less than 15 minutes. If I were to scan every page independently, it would take me twice as long.

These things may make it harder for an occasional ebay seller to justify using videos in an ebay listing, but seller who is listing collections and accumulations is, in my opinion, missing the boat but not using videos.

Oh gosh, I made a mistake!
One thing that I didn't miss, that dsmith426 does not contribute to the community but sure does participate in any freebies that he can get (in the last 2+ years he has posted only in the 'Contest and Giveaways' category).
