Hi everyone and happy thanksgiving. I am selling for the first time ever a custom gorilla outfit on Ebay. I don't know how well it will do, but I did put together the outfit with as much effort and emphasis as an outfit I would outfit my own mego.
Any suggestions on my listing?

good listing . Keep up the good work . The only thing I was do in the future as you list more is find a good image hosting site and don;t use EBAY .15 each images. A hosting site costs maybe 3.00 a month but is worth it.
I use microsoft frontpage to create my listings and just cut and paste my items . but you'll do well the way your going , so keep up the great work on both ends.

Great outfit! And yeah, I agree about image hosting. Don't use ebay for that unless the item is gonna bring megabux, and another dollar expense may not matter too much.

That custom outfit looks good with POTA Soldier Ape but you forgot to turn the jacket backward and that's not Gorilla figure, that's regular brown face Ape called "Soldier Ape" and the black face is Gorilla called "General Ursus". The buttons supposed to be on the back only. If I were you, I'll put that on the Category title names, like this: "Mego Custom Planet of the Apes Soldier Ape" OR "Mego Custom POTA Soldier Ape Action Figure" that is long enough key words. So, the most bidders can finding your Auction in different Categories. Good Luck to sell him on your first ebay! :)

Four more hours to go! I don't know why, but the listing says it's been viewed at least 1600 times. Is this unsual? Am I crazy?
I am just so proud of that outfit, and I am hoping it goes to a good home.

Yay! It IS going to a good home. I sent it out this morning on my way to the salt mines, so you should see it soon. Is it unusual to have so many people view your listed item? I thought it was cool when it hit 700 views...but 1,711?
When you get it, let me know what I can do to improve it.
